Part 1 Create blouse, jacket and skirts Bags Made from faux leather upholstery fabric. I tried to make an exact replica of the belt, to make it as close to the original as possible. The rings were made from worbla analog. Brooch Jaina’s got two of them: the bigger one on the coat and the […]

Strange as it may seem, Jaina is the only WoW character I really vibe with – and yet, until very recently, it hadn’t crossed my mind to cosplay her (or rather, I just haven’t gotten round to it yet: to many cool cosplays, too little time! And then there is Tyrande =). It all changed […]

Autumn of the year before last, I starred in a small Warcraft III fan film. It was quite a spontaneous project and a completely new experience for me. Playing a role is very difficult (but I never thought otherwise). It was also the first project where the whole organization lay on someone else – you […]

I’ve never had any experience with stage makeup before and it was the first time I decided to give it a go. My skin is quite sensitive, so the first thing I asked of the shop assistant at the store was whether I could apply this makeup over moisturizer and foundation. The answer was bluntly […]

I will say at once that I had to paint the armour twice. It so happened that I botched the first version when it was practically finished (I might tell you about that mishap sometime later). That’s why I had to re-paint it just a few days prior to the fest. I usually take my […]

Any costume detail starts with a pattern. Or rather, with taking measurements and making sketches on paper. I have to be honest, it took me quite some time to figure out the size of the future pauldrons right off the bat. I had to rotate the 3D model multiple times to get a sense of […]
