Hey, I have a Ko-fi now! If you like my work or have gotten any use out of my tutorials, please consider supporting me! Everything goes directly into art supplies so I can keep making more stuff.
I also have a Patreon for WIPs and walkthroughs if you want to see what I’m working on as I make it!
♥ Thanks for helping me live my dreams! ♥
Hey check it out! It’s a video of my costume in action!
I’ve heard some people saying “if only it blinked!” But actually, it DOES blink. (It just didn’t make it into the video.)
If you have questions, check out my costume FAQ! You can also see more photos of it here.
Please check me out on Patreon!
Greetings! I will be at ECCC 2018 this weekend! The only time you will be able to identify me is when I’m wearing whatever the heck this is, which will be for a few hours on both Saturday and Sunday, probably sometime between 1-4 pm. LOOK FOR ME OR DON’T!

Some photos of my kenku costume at Anthrocon 2016, taken by @adammillerstudio! Oh boy did I ever have a lot of fun! The other raven in these photos is @qawstume and the snowy owl we are mobbing is @crystumes, who made both of the blanks that we used for our masks.

^Haiku^bot^0.4. Sometimes I do stupid things (but I have improved with syllables!). Beep-boop!
I play a kenku in my DnD campaign, and I always get tripped up rushing to answer questions or explain myself- only to be reminded that my handsome bird can't speak lmao. How do you work with dialogue-heavy interactions? C:
Asked by scrumpygoat
I avoid them as much as possible. Not because my character can’t speak (she can) but because I’m shy and trying to speak in character makes me want to jump off a cliff.
Fortunately (or because of that?) my character doesn’t speak much, doesn’t answer questions, and doesn’t explain herself. Instead, she has very loud body language, which is much easier for me to describe.
uhh for example:
A very common expression for whenever someone proposes something that sounds like a bad idea:
I don’t remember why she was raging in this pic, but it’s pretty safe to assume the other kenku in our party was responsible.
At one point she was angry while also hiding from some goblins. When a goblin found her under the bed she was just a giant, hissing, black dust bunny.
uh, it looks like that’s all the art I have access to at the moment. I’m away from home right now.

@rah-bop and I both have birdpeople roleplaying characters and yet I’ve never drawn them together before.
Somehow Rue failed a stealth check at the same time Fletcher succeeded on a perception roll, what are the odds ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A while ago @nambroth, @byndogehk and I were interviewed for this article about bird costumes by the Audubon Society! Check it out!
One small thing I want to point out is that I disagree strongly about the sentiment that store-bought costumes are tacky. I think this attitude sucks the joy out of cosplay. Not everyone has the time, resources, or even the desire to make their own costumes, and that’s fine! The important thing is to have fun!! As long as you’re having a good time, it makes no difference where you got your costume.
Also, buying costumes means business for people who make costumes, which is great for everyone!
