Flashback of times past

So back in.....uh...2019? I decided I wanted to compete as Blaze the cat at Game On Expo. Completely remade the costume but to be honest while my technique was better I dont think my tailoring was.....or my wig styling π

Oh well, you live and you learn. We did place though! Second place Journeyman!

Sadly I feel like i lost a lot of pictures from that time....idk what happened to them. Blaze was such a comfort cosplay for me but it kinda feels like that was an era goneby. Went from Blaze to Meowth lol (can you see a pattern here π)

I used to maintain Blaze the cat super hard at cons, she was a comfort cosplay and my partner used to be Silver. Sadly things change and time moves on but I do still wear her from time to time.

This was my first iteration of Blaze. I made everything except the pants, I think i got them off Aliexpress or something π . I believe this was one of my first attempts at ears and tails. I remember my dad bending a hanger into a tail for me

Things I learned on this cosplay:
π EASE!! No one had explained ease to me for curved seams but at a panel someone did so I tried it for the first time
π Adding fixtures to wigs: I think I did a base with a screw sticking out through the top on this one
π painting shoes with fabric paint is generally more flexible
