ATTENTION COSPLAYERS:

I would like to make the paint brand “Angelus” known. It is a special paint that is for leather, faux leather, rubber, and similar surfaces.

This is literally the best paint you can buy if you love a pair of shoes, but they aren’t in the right color for your character.

This stuff coats VERY well AND the coats of paint bend with your shoes. This means no cracking!!

In the photos above I took black rain boots and painted them with Angelus Turquoise. As you can see, they don’t look black any more! It’s so good!

I managed to paint two boots with a little one ounce bottle of the paint, and I still have a third of the bottle left over!

The paint dries very fast, so you can put layer on top of layer on top of layer without it streaking.

You can get the paint on Amazon and it comes in every color!

I just really wanted to make this known!! 😀 This stuff is amazing!

Don’t buy Angelus pain’t on Amazon, it’s like $6.99 an ounce. Buy it direct from their online store the poster above linked, the single ounce bottles are $2.95 there. Also, a little goes a long way, unless you have something HUGE to paint, you can probably do it with a small bottle. I barely dented the one I got doing all the black on this;

I NEED/WANT A THING

Okay so I know this is really super late and Denver Comic-Con was weeks ago but I wanted to share that my siblings and I cosplayed as characters from the video game BioShock 2. (I’m the Big Daddy with the drill, my sister secondandsaveme is the Big Sister with the needle gun and my brother is the Splicer with the rabbit mask and hooks.) We were stopped at least 200 times to have our photos taken and it was so much fun, especially when one of the Booker Dewitts got so excited to see us and kept screaming that he finally found a Big Daddy. One woman who stopped us to take a picture told us that one of her good friends developed part of the first game and was going to send him our photo!

If you play the games, you’ll see the awesome Little Sister, Boy of Silence, Splicers, Vigor Vending Machine, and Bookers that we ran into, and they were amazing. We had such a great time, and when we went onto 16th Street to get some lunch we were even stopped to have our picture taken several times!
