🕑 Added 2024-12-12 07:26:52 +0000 UTCSorry, demongirl is life.
But no live stream I think, not ready in many ways.
I posted at 12:12 on social medias, but you guys deserve background and history. Is for all members.
In case you are new: 12/12/12 was not only the best photoshoot but I recieved my prize from the Capcom halloween cosplay contest same day.
Photoshoot has been in calendars every year, it's a big thing to me.
I made a special "webbing" wardrobe made of jewely chain and etc. I did start months in advance to make the chain gear, it started with something we bought at Dragoncon , which was supposed to be a spider on a chain web, but wasn't big and was supposed to be on chest but obviously didn't cover more than like...one hill if you dig. So I made a set of chain gear and followed up with making lace armlets,collar and grabbed some cheap silver boots which you never see because who cares!
Within a year, a character named albedo appeared in that fan comic etc which has the SAME webbed top, and is an invert of Katastrophia. I'm pretty sure back in the day popular people were watching. It's happened a lot to me actually, 1 to 1 stuff conveniently immedialy after I share it online. Usually with katastophia tooโฆlike my demongirl delight video a couple years ago (within a few months an artist named his pitch black demongirl "delight" with same white easter wardrobe.) There's a few more way too similar like this but whatever. I always wanted to cosplay ivy but meh. ๐๐๐๐
so: here's the top, it has a fancy spider now.
All that aside ( it aside?) My partner used her film skills to actually give me a photoshoot. Usually I'm the one with camera and do her shoots so was nice to have my own. We used the ENTIRE apartment. I got overheated from lights again, it's always hot to me but you know, just my personal health issue. The ball was sloppy painted the night before to be western hemisphere earth, I made the claw holder the previous week, it took maybe 3 days to clear the living room. Ironically 3 hours wardrobe and makeup because...I didn't even test wear the stuff ๐ฎ Here's whar you never got to see: back of the "thong" , upper part.
That was clipped on but for the photoshoot I removed it because no one would see it anyway. Creeper cam photo:
Key in sudden doorbell to sign for a package while I was getting ready, I took OFF makeup to answer the door, it was not cold that year either. We planned the photoshoot for weeks so it was nice to have a weird large box delivered from capcom, I didn't know what it was inside until opening and then realizing it was from 6 weeks ago, the Capcom darkstalkers contest, I won with Hsien Ko. With the L Raptor character liking Hsien Ko in game, it was fitting too.
This was what I entered in Capcom's unity site. It was supposed to be USA only and you had to supply an address...someone from either Europe or Brazil entered a photo of a variant of the PRIZE and basically he didn't say anything in the post, I pointed out the rules and was happy to step out, because in the end I think someone was simply posting someone else's cosplay photo.
The prize:
So there I was makeup on and we decided it would be cool to open the large figure while in character and did the Vine video....remember vine? โค๏ธ๐ Hence the video at the top.
Here are some photos of What I was talking about:
if you remember the demongirl only 2022 calendar coverโฆ I do ๐ ๐ ๐
Final note: when we were moving out of that apartment....the box for L Raptor was not able to hold him inside, it ripped tape and he fell out the bottom and broke in probably 100 peices....at the top stair of to top floor. I had to SWEEP up the small bits that I could findโฆI still have not repaired his heavy ass about a decade later, it haunts me. I don't have the ventillation or time, but as a figure maker and sculptor, definatly the skillz. It's a large version of what I've seen before.
That's all guys, thanks for reading!
It's a major astronomical event and this is what I mark on my calendar, not birthday, not religious holidays, not relationship things or vacations. I care about dates which we have control of making a memory. Keepsakes.

woohooo! yeah good times, less surgery stuff, short window of fun and progress. It feels like an occassion that some popular cosplayers get on the regular basis in a way, which is not a bad thing, but to some of us it's memorable for YEARS
