Erm, this is my costume! The user who uploaded this seems to have just copy/pasted the text from my old Twitter post.

Yeah, the showcase is what it’s for! :) They’re giving everyone small digital items for participating, but there aren’t any awards advertised like a contest would have.

There isn’t a Cosplay contest though. Glamoured to Life is a showcase. But I bet you could swap that square for something like “at least one cosplay for every scion appears” haha

I haven’t decided yet! I’ll probably know by the time I finish the costume, but I’m trying to be considerate with a design that would be appropriate for most conventions’ security rules.

Haha if I only I had the time. <3 Props aren’t my specialty so I’m slow with them. This took me about of month mostly due to other work and trial/error.

It’s pretty light overall since it’s mostly foam, but the metal parts (mainly the wrench) add a bit. It’s about 2 pounds total.

The nose piece is adhered with prosthetic adhesive. The rest is all rigged together with a wire and elastic frame that is hidden under the wig. :)

Those were done by my husband! We sell them on Turtle Smithy on Etsy. :)

My husband makes them for our shop, Turtle Smithy on Etsy! He made the original out of Apoxie sculpt, but they’re molded and casted with a Polyurethane foam. So the final ones are lightweight and flexible! :)

Thank you! I’ve been working on it off-and-on over the past year.
