COSPLAY COMMISSIONS are OPEN!!
Hi everyone, my name is Saf! As some of you may know, I graduated from school with a degree in costume design in May, and got out of my internship as an apprentice stitcher at the Santa Fe Opera company at the end of August, and since then I’ve been doing cosplay commissions full time. I’ve also started to compete in costume contests, and just recently my Emily Kaldwin(first picture) won Best Costume in the Master Category at Kumoricon.
I’m based in Portland, OR but I will do commissions for anyone, wherever (Though I’d really love some more Seattle/Portland clients, fittings are my friend). I don’t have a limited amount of slots, but I do have a bit of a queue. That being said, I am willing to do rush jobs for an added fee!
My commissions tend to be on the pricier side, but I’m extremely flexible when it comes to payment plans. You’re getting a custom costume! If you want ebay prices, check ebay, please don’t ask me. I’m also flexible when it comes to prices!
I mostly do sewing, but I’m very happy to do small crafts accessories if you want anything like pins, belts, or small pieces of armor. I’m also happy to do hand embroidery, and I love dyeing and painting, including airbrushing.
You can message me on any social media for details or quotes, but the best way to reach me is to email me with a reference picture and deadline to safcosplay@hotmail.com

You asked for justice and justice stormed in like a goddamn hurricane and HER NAME IS NANCY FUCKIN WHEELER
Don’t think any of my followers are German nor do I think my followers actually exist, but spreading for visibility anyways
This is actually a fairly common practice for fascists. Never tear down their propaganda with your bare hands, always use a pocket knife or something
Yeah this has been happening in America too, if you can then I recommend bringing your own anti-nazi stickers to put over the nazi ones
This is very valuable info!
loitering is basically the illegal act of existing while not spending money
isn’t capitalism fun
someone posted in leftbook today an article discussing how heavily integrated japanese imagery is in the new bladerunner movie and how there are like exactly zero asian people in it and it got me thinking about just how much asia has sculpted the western landscape of sci-fi while being systematically excluded from it. from bladerunner to firefly to star wars, white creators want everything about us except for us lol
It’s called Techno-Orientalism and people have been critiquing it since the first Blade Runner. There’s a book on it now:
https://www.amazon.com/Techno-Orientalism-Imagining-Speculative-Fiction-American/dp/0813570638
What will the future look like? To judge from many speculative fiction films and books, from Blade Runner to Cloud Atlas, the future will be full of cities that resemble Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, and it will be populated mainly by cold, unfeeling citizens who act like robots. Techno-Orientalism investigates the phenomenon of imagining Asia and Asians in hypo- or hyper-technological terms in literary, cinematic, and new media representations, while critically examining the stereotype of Asians as both technologically advanced and intellectually primitive, in dire need of Western consciousness-raising.
