Becoming Banner Spear: Frosthaven Cosplay Tutorial, Vlog and Giveaway

If you are a Gloomhaven/Frosthaven fan and you attended Pax Unplugged in 2019, you might find yourself in the video below! Also- I showed quite a few cosplay making techniques in this video that I'm sure you will also enjoy and learn from. And lastly, watch me sprinkle snow on a surprised Tom Vasel from Dice Tower while he was on stage during the Frosthaven announcement panel at Pax Unplugged. (They made me do it!, I swear). In this video I show you the process of how I built the Banner Spear cosplay as well as the Vlog of my experience working for Cephalofair games at Pax Unplugged 2019.

SheProp Presents: Where Do I Know You From? The perks of cosplaying original characters!

It’s no secret that cosplayers love to recreate established and well-known characters from their favorite fandoms, but designing an original character can be an incredibly rewarding experience too! Role-playing games, LARPing, and extended universes have helped to open the possibilities of designing a character that is entirely unique from backstory to costume. In this panel we will talk to cosplayers who regularly create characters that have never been seen before, why they do it, and why you should too! ⇨ TOPICS - Where to start with a new design - Cosplaying new characters within an established universe - How do you make sure your character is still recognizable with a new design - Cosplaying and its relationship to role playing - Larping - Con-Going ⇨ MODERATOR AbbyCat Cosplay - https://www.instagram.com/abbycatcosplay ⇨ PANELISTS Monica of Geeks A Gogo – https://www.instagram.com/geeksagogo Kim of Epic Nerd Camp – https://www.facebook.com/EpicNerdCamp/ Momma Sammu – https://www.instagram.com/mommasammu Xander – https://www.instagram.com/xanderpandercosplay ⇨ RESOURCES https://epicnerdcamp.com/ ⇨ CREDITS Graphics: Monica from Geeks A Gogo - https://www.geeksagogo.com/ Video Editing: Mia from Mia May Cosplay - https://www.instagram.com/mia_may/ Graphics, Social Media and Promotion: Beverly of Downen Creative Studios - www.downencreativestudios.com ::::::::::::::::::::: ⇨ LEARN MORE ABOUT SHEPROP https://www.sheprop.com SheProp is a unique and vital part of the cosplay community, supporting female, non-binary and transgender cosplayers, artists and makers of all skill levels across the globe through community and content like this. ::::::::::::::::::::: ⇨ JOIN OUR SHEPROP COMMUNITIES Facebook: https://bit.ly/38HjbaA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sheprop/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ShePropForum SheProp!

Why Cosplaying Offensive Characters is Not Okay

In this fun panel highlight, Con of Pros and Cons Cosplay, Black Bettie Cosplay and Babs Cosplay talk about cosplayers that insist upon recreating offensive characters.
