Jewel on the Far Coast
Dungeons and Dragons (Own Design)
May 2019
Jewel was so interesting to put together, I hadn’t designed a costume in a while. With Jewel I wanted to create a costume that was true to the character, while also being something I could realistically put on my human body, I wasn’t ready to go full furry, though I did come pretty close.
Hood Harness Pattern
$11.00
Surcoat Pattern
$11.00
I pulled a lot of inspiration from Ren Faire garb, Khajiit cosplayers and fabric that I had on hand. I also spent a lot of time looking at D&D art, and D&D inspired art, and lamenting the lack of official art of Tabaxi’s. In the end I never really had a final design, I kept making the different parts, and layering up the overall look until I had something I was happy with. My favorite parts are little details that I put in, like the patches on the surcoat, that I head cannoned as being repairs made by Eight.
This cosplay would not have been possible without the amazing support of my Patrons.
