Back from the Dead (But not really)
Michael MacWolff
Hey fam, it’s time for a long-overdue welcome back to my site! I know the pandemic & quarantine have hit a lot of us hard, and I’m thankful that my family and I have stayed safe and healthy through it, and the few folks in our circle that did get it didn’t have any major complications. That said, my motivation to do much of anything cosplay related was definitely at an all-time low, which is part of why it’s been so long since I’ve done much in the way of updating my site here.
But things are looking up! I’ve gotten my first dose of vaccine and while conventions still won’t be happening for a while the spring weather has definitely lifted my spirits! I don’t exactly have any solid cosplay plans for the near future, but I have been working on a number of other projects, and I’ve even had a couple of commissions that I’m looking forward to sharing with all of you in the coming weeks.
For today, however, I mostly wanted to point out a few new things happening around the site and as per usual, direct you all to my instagram where you can see all the stuff I’ve been making during quarantine.
First off, for those of you who like cool, weird, whimsical creatures, you should check out my Cryptobiology page!
The page is an ever-expanding field guide to magical creatures from a variety of fandoms, mythology, folklore, and even some from my own imagination. There you’re find photos of these lovely beasties as well as a collection of information about each species. Generally speaking, I will be posting one new creature every 1-2 weeks on Monday, doing a creature feature on my instagram under the hashtag #magicalmenageriemonday.
Second, while I don’t have any new cosplays to show you, I did finally update my Prop Gallery to include a bunch of cool items I’ve made over the last couple of years and failed to add to the gallery since, so if you’re just hoping to see a bunch of cool cosplay props like these without me talking at you, go check out the Prop Gallery.
Last up is my plan for a series of blog posts on here about my only recent costume, an OC mage of mine whose outfits I’ve been mulling over for a while. Next week will be the first one to show off his new(ish) outfit, and I’d like to do a few supplemental posts about some of the magical objects he has, as well as some other info about the character. I hope you all enjoy learning about him!
And here’s a sneak preview to hold you all over until then ~_^
That’s all you get to see now, you’ll have to wait until next week to see the rest! Until then, stay safe and enjoy the newly-arrived springtime!
