Agatha Harkness, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I don’t need you and your ghostly mentoring anymore, to the afterlife you go now 😆. • SURPRISE! Wiccan & Speed reunited with Mom & Dad for Day 2 of SpaceCon!! And boy it did not disappoint, AT ALL! After all that waiting and temporary setbacks, that photo op went much better than I could’ve ever imagined! • Unfortunately Agatha had to join us…in spirit, shall we say 😆. We had someone down to join us as Agatha but she had to call out, so it was only us 2. But neither of us are going to forget the moment that Paul & Elizabeth saw us and said “Ohhh, it’s our children!” 🤭😅. Fkn surreal. And thanks Jesus for planning this with me months in advance, it’s awesome getting to meet your heroes while cosplaying your favorite characters with your best friend! 💙💚 And yes ONE of them did say we closely resembled Joe Locke & Ruaridh Mollica…🫠. But it happened so quickly I can’t remember 😭. But holy crap…BEST. DAY. EVER! 😄…okay maybe 2nd best depending on what happens later 😂 • -Scarlet Witch ❤️: Herself -Vision 🤖: Himself -Wiccan 🌀: @eldritchcosplays -Speed ⚡️: @fromthecosplayverse • #spacecon #celebphotoops #marvel #marvelcosplay #familyphoto #maximofftwins #duocosplay #wandavision #agathaallalong #visionquest #elizabetholsen #paulbettany #joelocke #ruaridhmollica #wiccanandspeed #wandavisioncosplay #billykaplan #tommyshepherd #avengers #youngavengers #marveltelevision #familyreunion #dreamsdocometrue #marvelfamily #cosplaygoals

"𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒈𝒐𝒕 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅" • Words absolutely fail me right now to capture the indescribable joy I feel! Today I had the absolute honor of a lifetime to meet Sam Raimi, a Director whose work I've admired for nearly a decade & a half, dating back to when I was 7 years old & watched "Spider-Man" for the first time with my brother! • 3 years ago, after Scott Derrickson unfortunately left the project due to creative differences, I was absolutely THRILLED when I learned that Sam Raimi would be taking over as director for "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness", and was excited to see his horror style of directing in a Doctor Strange movie. And now I'm glad he did. Not only did I meet him but he also signed my Darkhold AND Book of Vishanti! • To say he was impressed with the books would be a VAST understatement! For the Book of Vishanti he said to me "This has to be one of the most impressive props I've ever seen" & "I'm amazed at how detailed this is, even with such little screen time". • But for me at least, the real kicker came after he signed my Darkhold. He asked if I had gotten Elizabeth Olsen to sign it. And when I said no he said "Well Aaron, I really hope that one day you have Elizabeth see & sign this book one day. I know that she will be just as if not more impressed with your work than I am" 🥹❤️ • -Sinister Strange: Me @eldritchcosplays -Sam Raimi: Himself -Darkhold: Made by me @eldritchcosplays -Book of Vishanti: Made by @thorgoldencub • #autograph #celebrity #celebrityautographs #doctorstrange #doctorstrangecosplay #sinisterstrange #darkhold #bookofvishanti #benedictcumberbatch #elizabetholsen #benedictwong #xochitlgomez #doctorstrangeinthemultiverseofmadness #multiverseofmadness #marvel #marvelcosplay #marvelprops #bookprops #replicas #samraimi #photoop #epicphotoops #dreamsdocometrue #autographsigning #fanexpo

"𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒍, 𝑰 𝒈𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕'𝒔 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒉 𝒂 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌." . 12 years after first seeing Tom Hiddleston's Loki onscreen fighting against the Avengers, I finally had the opportunity to meet this incredible actor & human being! . Still, all these hours later I'm still processing the shock. The fact he took the time to not just say in Loki's tone of voice "Ah, well hello Doctor" but to also compliment the detail of my cosplay really spoke volumes to me. If you would've told child me all those years ago that I would not just meet the main villain of the first Avengers film but also to be invited to A PREMIERE of his Disney+ show within the same 12 month period, I would've said that you were utterly insane! But life has this way of surprising you. . I still can't believe that in just 1 day, I met 5 different actors, and went to 4 different photo ops. And I still have more from my adventures here in Orlando. But my god, I'm so happy I turned out to be wrong when I said there was "absolutely zero chance in hell" I'd ever meet Loki himself. Hope I can manifest the same energy for a certain somebody.

“𝕬𝖍, 𝖞𝖊𝖘. 𝕹𝖔𝖜 𝖙𝖍𝖆𝖙 𝖎𝖘 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖚𝖓𝖉𝖊𝖓𝖎𝖆𝖇𝖑𝖊 𝖛𝖎𝖘𝖆𝖌𝖊 𝖔𝖋 𝖆 𝖙𝖗𝖚𝖊 𝖜𝖎𝖙𝖈𝖍.” • Bonjour, my friends. I hope you’ve all been well. I do apologize for my lack of uploads, though in my defense since I got back, my Creative Labs course this quarter has been BRUTAL 😅. However during my 1st quarter & Spring Break, I was hard at work building this: Wiccan’s new comic book suit from Wiccan: Witches’ Road. • Like Maleficent before him, this project faced numerous obstacles before even a single stitch could be made—patterning and fabrics chief among them. Unlike Maleficent, this time I wasn’t working from a live-action reference that already existed in physical form. Instead, I had to take a 2D comic design and translate it into a fully realized 3D costume, without pre-made patterns, and while issues were still being released. • Nonetheless, I decided that I’d at least try and finish before issue 5 released. I ended up sourcing all of my fabrics from a local market, selecting Red Heavy Cotton & Black Lycra Cotton for both their stretch/flow and visual accuracy to the reference material. I’m incredibly proud of what came out of that process. This costume required techniques including computer-aided design modeling, 3D printing, digital textile printing, structural garment reinforcement, and light metalwork for the belt. Like Maleficent, I made my own custom pattern for the suit, modeled all 3D printed components in Blender 5.0, and used a textile inkjet printer to recreate the blue detailing seen in-panel. • I wouldn’t say this one was as difficult to assemble as Maleficent was last year, but the planning and translation phase was just as intense. However, all of that planning and hard work did pay off in the end. • With just five months to go until DragonCon, I’m already looking forward to bringing this version of Wiccan to this years Witches meetup. Though I have to admit… I am NOT looking forward to styling that mullet 🤭. • 🖊️: Original Costume Design created by @lukaswerneck 💡: Based on Wiccan Witches Road by @art.andy & @thelavenderlemons • #marvelcosplay #wiccan #costumedesign #marvelcomics #cosplaybuild

“𝒞𝓁𝒶𝓈𝓈𝒾𝒸” • Hard to believe I built my Maleficent Billy cosplay nearly a year ago and I’m only just NOW having professional photos taken. But here it is — my first batch from this year’s Hair of the Dragon! The event was the perfect excuse to bring him out of retirement, and seeing the cosplay in high resolution is such a surreal feeling. • For this photoshoot, I tried my best to recreate a few of the iconic shots from Episode 7 of Agatha All Along, including posing with Tarot cards. Seeing all those little details I built myself — the spiked collar, flowing robes, and vibrant fabrics — captured in high-res really makes me proud I pushed through even when this project seemed impossible. • A huge thank you again to @markstercon for having me as a Featured Cosplayer at this year’s HOTD. I promise I’ll hang up the certificate you gave me before I have to hop on a plane back to France 😅. I’d love to hear though; Which one of these shots is your favorite? • -Cosplayer: Me -📸 Photographer: @cassieraedsgn -🧵 Original Costume Designer: @danielselon • #hairofthedragon #mcucosplay #markstercon #cosplayphotoshoots #agathaallalongcosplay Billy Kaplan Wiccan, Joe Locke, The Magician, The Tower, The Chariot, Selfmade Cosplay

“𝕭𝖚𝖗𝖓 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝕭𝖗𝖊𝖜, 𝖜𝖎𝖙𝖍 𝕮𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖓 𝕿𝖗𝖚𝖊, 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖌𝖑𝖔𝖗𝖞 𝖘𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖑 𝖇𝖊 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖓𝖊” • Well, here we are, New Year’s Eve heading into 2026. 2025 was an…interesting year. It started off incredibly awful. 2 weeks into the New Year, car crash & had to be taken to the ER. Then, surgery to remove a tumor from my chest (I’m still VERY sorry for all the incoherent stuff I wrote btw 😂). But then in March, my Mother…💔 • Yet, somehow despite all of that, the year only got better from there ❤️‍🩹. This year I got to do things that I didn’t think were possible; beginning with the construction of my Maleficent Billy suit in February. When I first took on the project, I really didn’t think I could build something so big & intricate all on my own. Yet after 2.5 months, he was done and he looked PHENOMENAL. So much so he might’ve been partially responsible for me getting into my current school 🤭. • And at this year’s DragonCon, even if part of me didn’t want to go because of mom, I only went to walk in the Parade & attend the Witches Coven Meetup. And I’m so glad I did. I had so much fun singing the Ballad, getting to see old friends & meet new ones alike, and getting to walk in the parade after dreaming about it for almost 10 years. Plus I made my first ever DragonCon ribbons! I cannot wait for next years meetup already, you guys really made me feel like I had found my family all over again! 💙🥹 • And to fully wrap up the year, I had one of the best weekends of my life at SpaceCon! I got to meet several of my childhood heroes like Ian McDiarmid, Jeremy Renner & even Carrie Anne Moss! And ofc; Paul Bettany & Elizabeth Olsen. • Thank you all so much for your continued support and encouragement. I really don’t think I would’ve made it through the last 9 months without y’all. I can’t wait to see what 2026 brings! 🎆 • Insta only lets me tag 20 people so I’m sorry if I didn’t tag everybody 😆. • #newyears #newyearseve #nye2026 #cosplayrecap #recap2025 #megacon #dragoncon #momocon #spacecon #cosplayfriends #collage #cosplaycollage #cosplaymeetup #editorsofinstagram #cosplaycommunity #2026 #photoops #herestothenewyear

“𝓢𝓮𝓮𝓴𝓮𝓼𝓽 𝓽𝓱𝓸𝓾 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓡𝓸𝓪𝓭” • Okay, last Billy/Wiccan post for a good while (promise!), in fact might be my last post ever, I’m not sure yet. But today is my 24th birthday & I pulled a near all nighter working on this edit. Obligatory birthday post if you will 🤣 • The edit is based on the cover art for Wiccan Witches Road issue 1, however I decided to put my own spin on it rather than simply translating the comic art into live action. And I’d be lying if I didn’t admit it was pretty painful getting the pose just right 😅. Apologies for disappearing for a month, I was swamped with final exams and have been preparing for a massive trip (more on that to come), AND finalizing all my plans for next year. • And no I’m not lying or exaggerating, after this, no more Wiccan until at least March. Hope you guys love the edit and try not to be too sad about Billy’s temporary departure 😂. • Thanks in advance for all the birthday wishes!! 🎈🥳🎂 • 🖌️: Done by Me 💡: Based on Wiccan Witches Road by @thelavenderlemons @_art.andy & @lukaswerneck • #wiccan #wiccanwitchesroad #marvelcomics #marvelcomicsedit #marvelcosplay #billykaplan #wyattkennedy #lucaswerneck #joelocke #agathaallalong #agathaallalongcosplay #birthdaypost #witchesroad #wiccanandhulkling #mcucosplay #marvelcosplayers #editorsofinstagram #editingmagic #downthewitchesroad #babayaga #happybirthdaytome

Try balancing on 1 foot in a leather suit while curling your fingers in unnatural positions if you don’t believe me. 😆 • Anyways, less than 1 month to go until Wiccan goes down down down the Witches Road in his first ever solo comic! ✨And because I’m beyond excited, I decided to recreate the covers — starting with the variant cover for issue 1 drawn by Russell Dauterman (which I preordered. It’s my favorite variant 💙). • Let me know what you think; does it look better with the suit from Agatha All Along, or should I have done it with comic book suit?? 🤔 • 📸: Myself 🎨: @wens.1998 👑: Made by Me | OG Designer: @xandersmith_design 💡: Based on the Wiccan: Witches Road variant cover by @rdauterman @_art.andy & @thelavenderlemons • #cosplayedit #wiccan #wiccanwitchesroad #marvelcomic #variantcovers #wiccancosplay #agathaallalong #agathaallalongedit #russelldauterman #billykaplan #joelocke #downthewitchesroad #marvelcosplayer #agathaallalongcosplay #comicedit #cosplayersofig #allanheinberg #jimcheung #youngavengers #youngavengerscosplay

“𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓪𝓷𝓼𝔀𝓮𝓻 𝓲𝓼 𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓮, 𝓝𝓮𝓸. 𝓘𝓽’𝓼 𝓵𝓸𝓸𝓴𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓯𝓸𝓻 𝔂𝓸𝓾.” • Alright, taking a quick break from Marvel! Last Friday, I had the incredible opportunity to meet Carrie-Anne Moss herself at SpaceCon! I must say, I think I was more nervous to meet her than anyone else, which is saying something. It was worth it though. 🖤 • From the moment the con announced her as a guest, I was dead set on meeting her while cosplaying as Neo from The Matrix. Those movies were my first exposure to her work, plus my stepdad, who introduced me to the Matrix told me he’d be very disappointed in me if I didn’t meet Trinity herself as Neo 😂. Obviously I had to do the bullet-time pose WITH THE SHADES ON, I hope you’re happy, Dad! 😎 • The cherry on top? Carrie telling me that I looked weeeee bit like Keanu Reeves. Like I’m sorry, WHAT?! Surely you must be joking!! That was definitely the best thing that happened last Friday! • Surprisingly though, there were only 3 Matrix cosplayers (myself included) in the photo op line, but I had so much fun getting pictures with @marvel_us_p in his Morpheus cosplay and the other guy we had as Neo, though I can’t remember his handle atm. Sadly, we did not find Agent Smith despite our best efforts 😔. • Hopefully you guys love my first non-marvel cosplay in quite some time 💙. • #spacecon #matrix #thematrix #matrixcosplay #keanureeves #lawrencefishburne #carrieannemoss #hugoweaving #matrixreloaded #matrixrevolutions #matrixresurrections #celebphotoops #neocosplay #morpheus #trinity #agentsmith #cosplayersofınstagram

Came in 2nd place right behind Wednesday Addams. And then to make matters worse (or funnier), my project manager told the winner, to please not gloat too hard as “We don’t want to upset the orphan on Halloween”. The orphan of course, referring to me. Sooo uhh yeah that happened today 😂. • Anyway, I hope you guys love my Maleficent Billy edit more than the everyone at work did 😆. I know this was in my Billy collage back in September but I rushed it in order to make the deadline, but since then I’ve gone back to finalize it and now he’s fully touched up and ready. Besides, the full picture couldn’t fit in the side by side anyway. • I’ve actually missed Maleficent these past 2 months since I last wore him at DragonCon (Definitely NOT the heels though 😂). I had fun wearing him all through today, not sure when or if I’ll wear him next though. Hope you all are having a SPOOKTACULAR Halloween! 🎃👻. • 📸: @legioncub 🎨: Myself 🧵: OG- @danielselon | Maleficent suit made by Myself • #happyhalloween #halloween2025 #happyhalloweenie #maleficent #maleficentcosplay #disneyvillain #disneycosplay #marvelcosplay #handmadecosplay #handmadecostume #agathaallalong #joelocke #witches #witchcostume #cosplayedit #seasonofthewitch

“𝓘𝓽’𝓼 𝓮𝔁𝓪𝓬𝓽𝓵𝔂 𝓱𝓸𝔀 𝓘 𝓹𝓲𝓬𝓽𝓾𝓻𝓮𝓭 𝓲𝓽.” “𝓨𝓮𝓼. 𝓘𝓽 𝓼𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓼 𝔂𝓸𝓾.” • And Happy 1 Year to episodes 8 & 9 of Agatha All Along. I remember feeling a whole mix of emotions when I sat down to watch it for the first time. I’m gonna try to get through this... 😭 • This episodes trial hit me in the feels much harder than any of the other 4. There truly is no force in the universe more powerful than a mother’s love. And boy were some heartbreaking lines in that one: • “Agatha, am I killing this boy so that my brother can live?!” “No Billy, sometimes..boys die” • I’ll briefly mention that I got really ecstatic when Wiccan showed up to save the day (kinda) in his suit. And the reveal that The Witches Road was created by Billy? Didn’t see that coming, especially since I thought they’d follow the comics. • Episode 9 with more of Agatha’s backstory? Heartbreaking episode, Kathryn Hahn’s performance really nails the desperation and vulnerability that Agatha feels as she tries to stop Death from taking her son, and later using her grief, and by extension the song they created as a means to increase her own power. • I am very excited to see what happens next with Agatha Harkness & Billy Kaplan/Wiccan. HOPEFULLYYY they show up in Vision Quest, even though it means Robo-Papa did their jobs for them 😂. • 📸: @dtjaaaam • #marvelcosplay #agathaallalong #kathrynhahn #joelocke #downthewitchesroad #wiccan #billykaplan #agathaharkness
