[@Woocasboocas]

Omg my friend sent this to me because she recognized me and my bf (witching hour ada and emil on the ground !! I was emil) at the meet up clips LOL Your night watch was absolutely amazing in person!!!! This vid was also so informative and entertaining omfg loved it sm

[@blueclarice]

You both looked so good omg!! Thank you so much for your sweet words! 🥹💕

[@teddygirl1568]

I love how you did your ears for the hood it turned out so cute

[@blueclarice]

Thank you!!! 😊

[@joegallardo9935]

It's incredible the amount of work you put into this cosplay, you looked really great❤❤❤

[@blueclarice]

Thank you! It means a lot :)

[@tzxazrael]

much like "5 minute crafts", many Tik-Tok tutorials are basically fake. a lot of camera trickery, "we didn't need to film that bit", "nevermind the 50 attempts that DIDN'T work and we didn't show", etc etc.... which really sucks, because a lot of people continue to believe in it, despite the terrible success rate.

[@blueclarice]

I kind of understand why they do it cause it’s a short amount of time to show how to do things, but at the same time it’s not entirely helpful. I’ve noticed shorts like that are better to get inspiration even if what they said didn’t work out :)

[@tzxazrael]

@@blueclarice inspiration, yes. instruction, no. at least half are completely made up and simply can't work as described, based on a number of youtubers attempting to replicate or debunk it. ...and yet people keep watching, and they keep getting richer and richer from it.

The styrofoam on the vacuum 😭😭

[@blueclarice]

Bro it was low key terrible 🥹😭

[@dhatroit]

Love the process explanation !!!

[@blueclarice]

Thanks for telling me! This makes me happy to hear ☺️

[@ViktorErikFade]

Getting just now into the crafting side of cosplay is wild Even the "simple stuff" is more difficult yet easier than you think it would be

[@blueclarice]

I totally get what you mean! Some techniques are easy in theory and then when ya try them they’re all of a sudden hard?? Lol

[@raven5279]

The end result was great, the snow was an especially good touch and the ears turned out awesome! So far as the axe goes, I'm always a huge advocate for cardboard as a cheap basic prop material. Epic Cardboard Props has a bunch of videos on it, and it tends to be sturdier than styrofoam so the screws would be a more stable attachment. Additionally, you'd probably have an easier time with the screw to split the handle in half if you used a "threaded insert", it's basically just a metal tube that has threads on both the outside and the inside

[@blueclarice]

Thank you for your kind words! People who can do amazing stuff with cardboard are so impressive!! I actually really wanted to use one of those metal tubes but I could not find them anywhere. I could only find the ones that go into walls which didn’t work at all. But I’ll keep an eye out for them if I ever decide to create another large prop again lol

[@riptidecosplay]

IT'S SO COOL SEEING HOW THIS CAME TOGETHER!! sometimes you just gotta hot glue and pray 😭also thank you for the shoutout toward the end hehe! it was so nice to see u at the meetup and see this in person! it turned out great!

[@blueclarice]

Ahh! Thank you! Hot glue and pray is my favorite cosplay technique 😂 it’s always great to see you in person! I had to shout out your amazing work hosting the meetup! And I loved seeing your Melly Cosplay!

[@LocalYukio]

Watching this 6 months later and I have to say I love idv cosplays. I just recently got into idv and I'm already planning to make a Florian cosplay

[@blueclarice]

Omg!! Yay for Idv cosplays :D good luck on your Florian cosplay!!!

[@chirpysr]

for big props with large surface areas like nw’s axe, you can use insulation foam! it’s very lightweight and dense, and it’s easier to paint on than styrofoam 👍 they sell huge boards of them in michaels and home depot. i really enjoyed watching this build!

[@blueclarice]

Good idea!! Styrofoam is such a pain to pant haha. Thank you!!! 😊

[@chirpysr]

@@blueclarice make sure you sand and prime all your foam before you paint on it, it not only does it give it a smooth surface, it will stop the foam from drinking up all the paint!! ❤️

[@cartoonhyperfixated]

The struggle is REAL!! But dude your cosplay turned out AMAZING omg it’s so cool, ur rlly underrated and I enjoyed watching your process 😭💕

[@blueclarice]

Omg!! Thank you so much ☺️
