Gale Dekarios – Baldurs Gate III

Gale Dekarios – Baldurs Gate III, The Protecty Sparkswall robe After playing Baldurs Gate III, I knew I absolutely had to make Gale – that charming wizard with the ego complex was my favourite by far. I initially made his camp outfit for Hotaru con 2023 as it was comfy and fairly simple (other than the strange medieval chaps!), but I knew I wanted to make a full robe too.

Cattleya Baudelaire – Violet Evergarden

Cattleya Baudelaire – Violet Evergarden I put this costume together very last minute for HibanaCon.

My bow was crafted from PVC pipe bent, wrapped in Worbla and then painted. The lace front wig I wear with this is my favourite wig or all time and it makes a change to not be doing another black haired character!
