ALAIE

I have (finally) made a new account for artwork! >>>>

Whilst ideally I'd like that username for this account, I understand you can only do that with a subscription?

Anyway my signature will remain the same on artworks, after all ALAIE is still HotshotShan, so there's no problem. I am also keeping my old works on this account as I am too lazy to clean them up, plus I do not feel they are required on the new account. I may even end up taking them down, who knows.

The exceptions are the commission I uploaded yesterday and the piece 'Black' which is the new account's icon.

Please continue to support me at this new account whilst cosplays will still be uploaded here!

Hey there deviants!

So at the end of this week I'll be at London MCM Expo along with my fellow members of TeamPiC, having finished my Foundation Degree course in Acting today I can finally relax for a couple of days and be excited!

I don't have any newly-made costumes for the event, but I am going to be debuting the Taiga Aisaka (Toradora!) cosplay  I bought a year ago but haven't had the chance to wear yet.

I'll probably be in the seifuku again for shits and gigs the next day too

Take care and perhaps see ya in LANDANNNN!

I have got myself a tablet, a wacom bamboo, it works perfectly and thank you everyone who recommended it to me I adore it. Art is certainly in the works as most of you have seen on my tumblr

I am also splashing out further money I don't really have on Manchester Expo next month and a Ness cosplay to wear. 'But ALAIE! You have many costumes for AmeCon planned, shouldn't you wear one to Expo instead now that you're not attending?' I hear you ask, the answer is yes. Yes I should.

But I am not because I am a brat and I take no pride in this whatsoever.

Also Earthbound friggin' rules.

Will I get to see you lovely people there? Let me know! I look forward to it!

But I need help; my old tablet is unusable and I would very much like recommendations for a new one. Please comment with your recommendations! And if possible, a link would be swell too.

I intend to get back into practice as soon as it arrives and on a new account, so watch this space. I hope to open commissions someday too. Pretend this is relevant to your interests.

Just out of interest what kind of fandom stuff do you want to see? Of course there are fandoms I have cosplayed from already but I am also interested in Disney, various anime and the Avatar series (mostly Korra though, I'm a newb!) or just comment if you have a specific fandom in mind.

Thank you for reading!

I have returned from my KitaCon escapades! It was an incredibly fun con even if I was here there and everywhere, it could almost be called StuckerCon as Homestuck dominated mine and most my friends' schedules.

If the Gokaiger cosplay didn't give it away I am not only into Homestuck now, in fact that has been moved aside for now as I am in a big tokusatsu phase. It's a calling, bro!

Expect more Ahim photos as well as Dave Strider and Roxy from Homestuck.

As for TokuCo- I mean AmeCon in August these are my planned cosplays:

- KAIZOKU SENTAI GOKAIGER Gokai Pink (Ahim de Famille) = reworn
- MAHOU SENTAI MAGIRANGER MagiRed = in progress
- KAMEN RIDER W Phillip = in progress
- TORADORA Aisaka Taiga = in progress

maybe with

- KAMEN RIDER DEN-O Urataros = planned
- HOMESTUCK Dave Strider = reworn
- KINGDOM HEARTS Kairi = in progress

it all depends of course.

Anyway now that you know I'm still alive, anyone remember when I used to art?

No, me neither. Probably a time I wasn't a student.
