Nerd, Oncology Clinical Trials Cog in the Machine, flawed human. My views are my own.
I don't post much here, because I'm trying to work on minimizing social media, but I am happy to announce that I've completed my 6th costume for the @the501stlegion.bsky.social , an ANH-TK (Stormtrooper, A New Hope). It's not red, so it's a nice change! Done in 6 months or so. #starwars #cosplay
I have a new costume! As my wife put it, "Oh no, you've joined the legion of sames and now I'll never find you in a crowd or photo." #starwars #cosplay #stormtrooper
Had a chance to attend the Toronto premiere of The Mandalorian and Grogu this evening, it was a really fun movie and quite an enjoyable watch. Sure, not super deep but was a fun, standalone Star Wars film. Will be trooping other premieres over the weekend so maybe I'll go watch it again 😊 #starwars
Ugh, even with many years of miniature and costume painting under my belt, I still really suck at freehand.
Saw the Distant Worlds Final Fantasy concert in Toronto tonight! Was an amazing show, I'm still sad I didn't manage to get a VIP ticket to meet Soken himself. I should really get back into #ffxiv...
Starting a tiny little big project... Gonna try to keep it subtle as I want it to be a surprise for spring!
And that's it for #silksong! Enjoyed it more than the OG Hollow Knight, and it pushed my skills and concentration to a level I didn't think it could go.
Painting night tonight while Marina bashes her head against Hollow Knight. I'm about to get tired of panting tiny TIEs 😅
I haven't picked up any of my miniature paints or brushes in a few years. And since I've been thinking of getting back into it as a palate cleanser from all my current projects, figured it was time to check which ones were still usable.
Rolled credits on "an" ending in Silksong. Even without previous Hollow Knight experience, I know there are other, more involved endings just because of all the loose ends... Also the last few boss fights were *chef's kiss*
I'm a charity cosplayer in my spare time! Specifically with the 501st Legion, where we dress up in media - accurate Star Wars costumes to help raise funds for charities like Make a Wish and the Starlight Foundation
I appreciate that! Offer still stands, though I'll accept a charitable donation to a cancer charity, or to Starlight Foundation or Make a Wish as appropriate compensation 😊
I specialize in red costumes for the @the501stlegion.bsky.social ,so I decided to make one in red to wear around when I'm not in costume 😊 Let me know if you'd like one, happy to make one for you no charge, consider it a "thank you" for writing a book I really enjoyed
Betsy looks so much like our Kariko! Also a lab rescue, but more lab retiree since he was homed out after his time was done.
WTAF, Meta? Didn't even tell me what I did wrong- I'm *pretty* sure I didn't share any exploitation material. I've had friends get flagged and suspended because AI said their post was CSAM when it was a freaking helmet? That's also a 19 year facebook account down the drain, ugh
Always happy to chat about my interests, science, Star Wars. Pleased to meet everyone. 😀
On my off-time, I am a member of the 50st Legion (@the501stlegion.bsky.social), the biggest international Star Wars fan costuming group, and we dress up in movie-accurate costumes to raise money for charity and make people smile 😊 I personally specialize in Red Guards, armoured or not! #promosky
