Deep down, I'm more of a prop-maker than a costumer because my favorite part of any costume is invariably one of the little doo-dads or hoozits that goes along with it.

It all began many, many moons ago when I was piddling on Ebay and discovered Bandai's Sailor Pluto "lip rod". Since I couldn't hope to beat the three-digit bid price, I thought to myself; "Hey, you're an art student. Make a copy of the bloody thing." So I did. Then came Fushigi Yuugi and Tasuki. I desperately wanted a tessen, but there wasn't an official one out there. With a little help from a professor, I had my own made.

Things mushroomed from there, as you can see.
