“I’m gonna sing a song cause I’m extra” You’re cosplaying a Sam riegel character, it’s not extra it’s nearly required 😂

[@himboghost629]

Fact

[@BecBoops]

As much as I appreciate ALL of your DnD content (as a new DM the advice is so extremely helpful), I didn't even realize how much I miss watching you build cosplays! Such an absolutely wonderful video as always!

[@ashildrtheswift3028]

Yes, it's very nostalgic as well as entertaining!

[@slipshodaverage844]

The exact comment I came to make.

[@Mightymajin]

This build couldn't be better if you learned how to ride a unicycle for it, well done!

[@GinnyDi]

"I learned to ride a unicycle to cosplay Fresh Cut Grass" is LITERALLY a title/concept I wrote down, but time is a weird soup and this needed to be a lightweight project 😂

[@MDRShab]

I did watch this entire video half hoping to see Ginny attempt to unicycle. ;)

[@greatauntlizbethg9137]

I will also put this as a comment, but during this video i had a thought of the one legged guy who does costumes that work better with one leg ( an Xmas tree and upside down on his crutches for a flamingo come to mind) would be an excellent choice for a realistic fcg cozplay

[@cosmicomics1755]

I ride unicycles and after seeing this I'm definitely fcg for Halloween this year.

[@commandercaptain4664]

Ginny's all "tell me how to be 💯without saying you're 💯".

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

If there is any D&D player okay with someone turning their character into a sexy pin-up version; it is probably Sam Riegel. Wonderful work!

[@jeremyfrost2636]

Honestly, I'd love it if she did this with one of my characters. Considering how slutty my characters are they'd love it too lol.

[@superhero6785]

I vote Ginny does a series where she turns EVERY d&d character into a sexy pin-up version :) I'd buy that calendar!

[@CrispysTavern]

I love the chill feel of videos like this. Combine that with a wheelie robot therapist cosplay? It's the vibe I never knew I needed.

[@WeaponizedStrumpet]

Ok but with the things I've seen you cover, it makes sense to me that you'd need a therapist. I've more than once needed a nap after hearing some particularly bad story from you.

[@Liptowww]

And now we can hope that Sam Riegel himself make a cover of your song, or even better - a duet. Then we all will have a smiley day 😁

[@vtsphinx]

I love this version of FCG! And really all your pinup D&D reimaginings (Gelatinous Cutie is a big favorite as well) - such a creative way to play on a known character! I'm a big fan of fun/low key cosplay builds (screen accurate is great, but doesn't feel like an accessible hobby the way this does). Anyway -- love this video, thanks for sharing!

[@jcsturgeon]

I don't have any particular interest in doing cosplay or making these kind of projects but there's something so soothing about being walked through the creative choices, seeing it executed and having that repeat until it's done. I was highly invested early on and... I don't even watch CR. Testament to a well made and executed video.

[@DrVesuvius70]

1:16 "Big Builds aren't really my area of interest in cosplay...." says the lady who designed and built her own fully functional centaur suit! :-) Cute outfit, clever design choices and a peppy song. Cosplay's not really my thing but massive respect for the artistry and skill.

[@Kaervek87]

For a second, I forgot how letters worked, and thought FCG was Henry Crab Grass. I was SUPER excited there for a minute.

[@beccacollins1528]

Yeah, Ginny, I think we'd all love to see a Henry Crabgrass cosplay. Challenge has been issued! Get to it! lol

[@barswa]

What a regal treatment you did for Fresh Cut Grass!

[@edenborden3846]

teehee good pun

[@Alex-yg2fg]

I see what you did there

[@oOPPHOo]

_"I got this dump truck at the thrift store to cannibalize"_ Cannibalize? This simply confirms my long time theory that Ginny is in fact a dump truck in disguise.

[@nigeldepledge3790]

But, you have to admit, that is one *hell* of a disguise!

[@thatHARVguy]

@@nigeldepledge3790 🎶Transformers theme intensifies🎶

[@Reoh0z]

> Chat, "Now cosplay FCG!" > Ginny, "Challenge accepted."

[@Raganui]

Her freehanding of the saw's outer circle and the notches for teeth was really amazing.

[@lulzalot97]

Between this and Momo O'Brien putting up her how-to Jedi costume video yesterday I'm LOVING the great in depth creation videos we're getting this week!! 🧵🧶

[@mikesL]

Ginny did such a good job getting FCG's flesh tongue right!

[@MandibleBones]

One day I hope to have at least a third of the sheer QUANTITY of talents Ginny has worked so hard to develop over the years. Well done, Ginny!

[@jeremyfrost2636]

Pretty sure Ginny is just a polymath.

[@shannonolivas9524]

"The foot guys, they've always been here" made me laugh. Never seen your content before, this was really upbeat and enjoyable. Lighting aside, I couldn't lay down on grass either, unless I'd want to be itching for the next few hours after.

[@henryherold4515]

Huh. I like the effect when you're lying on the fake grass, and the reflection of the overhead lights in the sunglasses looks like classic robot eyes. Probably not intended, but very cool.

[@WindGunner]

Love the shades. They pull everything together so well

[@cheerio3442]

"time to dye" i make this joke all the time when i help dye my friend's hair its great

[@KaelTheAdventurer]

Awesome job! Also, as soon as I saw the thumbnail for this, I immediately was imagining this scenario where Sam Riegel finds out about this and takes it upon himself to say, right to Laura's face, that this is "the most attractive Critical Role character that Ginny has ever cosplayed" xD

[@cold_punk]

You could easily do a cowboy adventurer variant of FCG as well: For the fit: basic denim blue jeans are a cowboy classic, add on a yellow and blue paneled vest to allude to FCG's mismatched panels (or even sub the panels with patches for a more worn and dusty look) Leather additions could be holsters, belts, backpacks, etc Swap the heels for good ol' cowboy boots and tie in his wheels with the spurs The grass symbol would make a good sheriff's badge substitute if you wanted, and/or a belt buckle instead if you fancy it The brim of the iconic cowboy hat could be the saw blade and a frayed wire hat band to bring it all together

[@davidioanhedges]

Ginny applying the three fundamental rules of cosplay, regardless of how far from the original you are #1 : Attention to detail #2 : Attention to detail #3 : Attention to detail

[@bakuiel1901]

You know this is the most unique take on fresh cut grass I could ever have seen, wonderful job Ginny.

[@PaulCharvet]

Everything about this from the costume to the song was just so fun and charming! (Which is, of course, perfect for something FCG-themed)

[@astridmarie6412]

This was literally so chill! The music choice was fantastic. A neat lil tune. Love how it turned out!

[@katiea8716]

This is such a creative take on FCG’s character! I love it and I can’t wait for more cosplays!

[@phoenixdzk]

Terrific work as always. I didn’t realize all the subtle details in his art till you pointed it out!

[@amandac.s.9452]

I'm a sucker for these genre bending cosplays. Brava Ginny!!!

[@brentage5000]

Always love seeing your costuming videos! Your way of taking an existing form that is definitely NOT clothing and choosing just the right elements and features to adapt into an actual outfit never fails to impress! Loved this take on FCG, and hopefully Sam himself sees it!

[@fenfaerie]

This is such a fun and clever reimagining of FCG. You absolutely nailed it!

[@johndbro1]

I've loved your D&D pinup art for a while now (I've bought one or two of your calendars) and I just realized you're the same young woman from the 'I ship it' and 'Sorted This Way'. How delightful!

[@marcruz1136]

Creativity on this cosplay is so strong, I absolutely the way you utilized the original design and put your own spin on it. Keep it up!

[@corasgrove3474]

Cosplays with a twist are always my favourite. Love it!

[@catdragon1313]

“The foot guys, they’ve always been here.” 😂😂😂

[@felixrivera895]

You did such a good job with such a hard premise. Your look doesn't look like FCG (because its hard to regrow a leg and rearrange body parts to look like a robot), but you captured his aesthetic amazingly. The vintage style also make the look feel like its from an older point in history, which is great for some of the lore reveals about FCG.

[@matthewschultz1916]

This was such a chill video. I know you were saying these don't do as well, but they're such a welcome vibe check.

[@brandonschneider4984]

I've shown you to my friends that cosplay. Apparently I'm so far behind the times. They've known about you for years, and loved you since first seeing you. I myself don't cosplay but I do roleplay. I found you about a year ago and fell in love with your style. Thank you for doing what you do and also for Being You.

[@littlemizredhead]

The day CR asks you to be a guest... IM GONNA SCREAM

[@mako3503]

you're literally the biggest inspiration ever

[@Vares65]

That was fun, great job! I loved the side by side photos, you nailed it.

[@matthewboles6721]

Came for the cosplay, fell in love with the song. Really well done.

[@spookyshark2656]

AHH!! Always exited to see FCG content and this cosplay turned out absolutely amazing !! You're so talented!!!!!!!!

[@goatsfluff]

Nice cosplay, 8/10, only thing that lacks is his belief that the planet is flat. For real though, it looks awesome! I've always thought adaptations of characters are neat. Some costumes seem cumbersome to make if they're supposed to look as authentic (to a T) and close to the original as possible, so making an anthropomorphic version of it, if you will, seems logical. It's also fun to see how different people play with the different details, like Letters' wheel in this video. I also love how his mechanic gripping implements with digits turned into the driving gloves and the chest symbol into a broach (it also means the same as a brooch, etymologically!).

[@adams7763]

I love this whole thing. Especially the song because I know it from the musical Call Me Madame.

[@shukojake]

Ginny your talent leaves me floored every time. This was absolutely amazing!

[@ohdrinn]

This is SO cool! You make the most amazing cosplays!

[@dawnofchickens047]

HBDJJSBD YOU LOOK SO FANTASTIC AND YOU CAPTURED THEM SO WELL!!!

[@MemphiStig]

I was expecting an original song, but given how much work cosplay is, this makes sense, and it was a lot of fun.

[@christophercook4819]

First cosplay video of yours that I’ve watched and I gotta it’s a 10/10 amazing job love the vintage twist you put on fcg and the song was great!

[@snoopist5817]

DUDE I LOVE THE ROLLER HEELS LOL AWH ANOTHER GOOD WORK BY GINNY DI

[@Ninjanico626]

Your passion & joy is contagious and inspirational alike ! Wonderful content & spirit 🌺

[@toughtink]

i’m so happy you got to make this pinup happen!! pinups, original cosplay design, cute old timey song cover-this video is all my favorite things!!! 😍

[@havenomouth]

"Big builds aren't really my area of interest..." The person that built a whole ass walking centaur cosplay 2022

[@GinnyDi]

I built it in 2017 and it was such a pain in the ass that I've since just reused and reskinned it 😂

[@kylianmolenbroek6138]

the flesh tongue was the most realistic thing of the entire cosplay

[@TheKaliedescope]

I really love this even though I haven't found time to watch/listen to CR. Just a thought, that dress has serious potential for pinup X-Men characters just by changing up accessories.

[@jeremyfrost2636]

With a red wig Ginny could NAIL a Jean Grey cosplay. I mean, I think that'd turn out really good.

[@philosophyoftrucking]

Amazing how certain people can create costumes and clothes like this from scratch.

[@Reoh0z]

Every day with a Ginny video is a smiley day.

[@MeluhKnight]

Sam is gonna love this and probably make his own version of the costume

[@ClaudiaDCD]

What a fun build! I love interpretive cosplays!

[@raindog8684]

Too cute. This video is every reason I come to this channel.

[@talesoftableiii1584]

I am much impress! The cosplay and song both turned out so well!

[@christyclow4464]

As always I’m so impressed by your creativity! This make is awesome!!

[@BelegaerTheGreat]

*The flesh tongue is the most accurate part.*

[@the_Karma_Jockey]

I feel like this would definitely be Sam Riegel approved. It is adorable, I especially love the wheels. Thank you for sharing the build.

[@yamueljackson]

This is amazing. FCG would appreciate this, then probably ask what it meant.

[@justiceiro47]

dnd or cosplay videos, your videos are always so gosh darn entertaining, ginny, legitimately. love your videos and smiley day to ya.

[@sharktoothjack8854]

So much fun! I really like the metallic lip color

[@phillipbernhardt-house6907]

Absolutely brilliant, as always! The shoes are a maestro's stroke--very well done indeed! And the song is delightful! I predict: Sam Riegel will see this, get in touch, have you make exactly the same costume (dress and heels and all!) and send it to him to wear for one of the sponsor ads at the beginning of a show...or, for the Hallowe'en episode this year, perhaps? In any case, we'll see him wearing it at some point! (And if that has not already entered his mind, may it do so now...or, may it enter Marisha's or Liam's or Matt's minds, and then they convince him to do it! Or, if Travis or Taliesin or Laura or Ashley see this [and especially Ashley, as I think she would like the idea a lot!], may any of them convince him to do it!)

[@evelynnsophia7631]

It's always so wonderful seeing your cosplay videos and cosplay builds! Been a while so I'm glad you found time for this project, I love your FCG and the song

[@fenrirwalker7083]

Well I really like all the crafty shtuff you do! All around very talented :D

[@hurdydurdy7034]

this came out at the perfect time with all of the FCG lore that was dropped!

[@blackshard641]

Wow! I had no idea you had such a phenomenal singing voice!

[@mrssmallhands7516]

Amazing! I love this. I admire all the work you put into every video.

[@Vortagh]

I've seen Photoshop used for many things, but I think this is the first time I see a garter belt magically changing colors from red to blue. :D Ginny, I love everything you've done so far and this cosplay is just too great. I agree with what someone else mentioned in that I missed cosplay builds like this. Please never change! :)

[@elroyfromny]

This is so gorgeous. I want to make elaborate costumes, but I’m aLways afraid I won’t have anywhere to wear them, and so when an occasion does come up, I’m scrambling to get something thrown together. And it always looks like I threw something together….

[@thisjust10]

This video, cosplay and song are all fantastic

[@deaconfrozt1]

So much talent! Great work Ginny

[@jetvulcan2020]

really great, love the build, the photo shoot, then a song on top of everything else. wow

[@kevindeaton8105]

I love your advice for D&D so much....I forget what an amazing cos player you are...love it

[@dresdenvalareo1002]

You have yet to not impress me with your talent (both in cosplay and singing. Seriously, I would not have known that was you and not the original singer had I not seen it) Or not make me break out laughing at your humor 🤣 keep it up

[@kaemonbonet4931]

I love the costume! I'm curious, I recognize it's not in the color scheme but what do you think of a darker lip shade? I could imagine a purple also working great with everything else!

[@xandosreign]

Awesome job. Thanks for a wonderful change of pace. :D

[@nate7790]

"Time to dye", "leap of faith"... Gee you really packed those jokes in 10 seconds. Well Done

[@TheChristmasNinja12]

Judging by the massive spike in replays for the third picture, I have deduced that everyone else must have also noticed the garter belt changed colors! That must be the reason, right?

[@martinjrgensen8234]

I love how you just yolo your way through things. You are fabulous ❤️❤️

[@faemerothgoblinbane]

Excited to give this a watch! I have been missing the cosplay build videos lately.

[@nigeldepledge3790]

Smiley day to you, too, Ginni! I'm loving your FCG.

[@Makkenhoff]

Will watch again, really enjoyed this.

[@mrhazard668]

Genius at work and cosplay !

[@joshuastephens8569]

Everything you touch on is as gold and beautiful as the costume.

[@elysemccarty1415]

this really made my day honestly

[@SilverSmogMaster]

Great song! You could do more of those, would love a whole album!

[@ClaudiaManns]

Ah so cute!! It's only July but this already makes me excited for your next pin-up calendar lol

[@AmyMichelleWiley]

Love it, all of it! Music and wheel shoes and everything.
