The cosplay competition side of the community is much smaller. Everyone knows each other & talks. Coordinators talk to each other. If you're caught being a sore loser when you don't win, then you're shooting yourself in the foot!

I usually cosplay characters that I get to know, but I really love Ovid's design. Based on her personality by the creators, she's really interesting!

Megu 🔜 NYCC @stardustmegu.bsky.social · 2d

I'm taking a few days to rest and then will start on my next Magfest build: Ovid from Hell Maiden!

I'll make a wip thread of this soon and will post as I progress!

Today I competed at NYCC's Cosplay Showcase as Cure Prism & ended up winning Mayjeanw's Judge's Choice Award! I did not expect this! And especially from an amazing cosplayer that I look up to! Thank you so much for this! This really made me happy! 🥹💖

The sword, ax,.sword holster (not shown) & gloves (not shown) are the ones I didn't make! The sword & ax I had for a while (this is the same sword I used for my Eirika cosplay a while ago).

I did add a bit of touch by using the blood of my enemies- I mean acrylic paint to make them bloody!

Made the neck piece out of worbla scraps (primed, painted, & varnish). I also sewed leather strips to the cape & snaps so that I can put it on. It's very light!

I styled the wig a bit with @ardawigs.bsky.social Luthien Classic (Maroon). (Brushing out the curls, trim bangs, and made a braid).

Megu 🔜 NYCC @stardustmegu.bsky.social · 6d

To make the burned rips and holes, I used my soldering iron (make sure to wear a mask and do it in well ventilated area). And I purposely didn't hem.

I also had this fake fur for years (forgot where and why I bought it 🤣) and sewed to the top.

Megu 🔜 NYCC @stardustmegu.bsky.social · 6d

I got white linen rayon fabric from @dharmatradingco.bsky.social & dyed it. Depending on the lighting, the cape can be either grey or brown! I don't mind this!

Quickly made the panties with spandex after making a mockup. Also primed, painted, and varnished the shoulder armor and the bra. Shoulder armor and bottom scales are attached with snaps.
