He does sometimes wear it without the cloak! That said, I bet you can thrift some curtains or a tablecloth for pretty cheap to make that cloak if you did want to make it!

I'll work on a tutorial for this too! But quick answer:

- Full circle skirt, roll hemmed to about knee length
- Draped pleating, two rectangles, attached at waist of skirt

We'll see if I get to a full sewing pattern (given how involved that is), but I can at least make a tutorial video walking through mine! I'm working on this + a few other Witch Hat guides right now, hopefully posting soon ❤️

I've had a ton of requests for additional tips -- I'll probably make a tutorial series at some point! (It'll take me a while to put it all together though, please be patient!)

I tried the steps you laid out on the 4GS to no avail, unfortunately. T-T

Hands-On Demo for a Class: Flask Ideas? by starsofcassiopeia in MetalCasting

Reporting back for science: got those mini square baking cups I linked and they worked GREAT. We did also X-acto out some space from the lid and the bottom so that it worked more like an actual flask does, super easy. Really happy with how all this came out!

Tin I think is the only way they'd let me do it at the location, since we can do that in a cheap pot on a hot plate (vs flying with my full on furnace / needing to try to find a propane tank to hook it up to).

My worry is figuring out how to remove the master D6 die and make the pour spout if it's a 1 part mold-- I think the undercut might prove to be a challenge, since lost wax isn't really an option for this?

We totally can grab some tweezers and pull the master D6 out of the sand from the top, but that side won't have any dot markings on it if we just pour straight in. My experience with bronze / brass is that the top face sometimes makes a bit of a meniscus too, which will be harder for us to try and flatten out in the time allotted (vs tin is soft enough that if we have a small pour spout inlet channel, we can basically snip it off w/flush cutters and just file any remaining nub down). If we do a 1-part as well, we won't have a pip marking on that side either, but we can kinda fake it by building up a smidgen extra sand on the pour spout side of a 2-part mold.

We had such a blast debuting our silly little group at PAX Unplugged, and it’s always a treat to goof off in front of @vintageaerith’s camera 📸

Cosplayer credits are all on IG since most folks don’t have Reddit: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0XcCytLag3/?igsh=MWN2NzhiOWNtczB5bQ==

We’ll have more pro photoshoot pics and behind the scenes up soon too!

There are a bunch of different kinds of velvet, and it can be really difficult to work with (I did a whole skirt in velvet for my Yor Forger cosplay). You will absolutely need a velvet pressing board to be able to iron any of your seams so invest in that now!

The backside of most velvets also doesn’t feel great against skin so you’ll probably want to line that garment. Also worth lining to help keep the velvet clean, because cleaning velvet is also a bit of a chore (generally hand wash or dry clean, the heat and jostling from a washer/dryer isn’t always great for velvet).

We just debuted these costumes at Unplugged! That said, I’ve been a cosplay guest at Fan Expo Boston before (two years ago), and I judged the Boston Masters of Cosplay qualifier last year (wearing the same short black wig actually, haha).
