Learn to make your own cosplays and get the cosplay experience! I make many cosplay tutorials to get you started on your own cosplay journey including tutorials on sewing, foam work, wig styling, and makeup. I also attend conventions and share my experiences through convention vlogs. As a disabled cosplayer, I have some really unique experiences to share. I incorporate my mobility aids into my cosplays and have gained so much confidence with the help of this amazing hobby!
Can you show your full Carmen Sandiego cosplay? I've been obsessed with the show, and after realizing you cosplay as her, i searched for a video on your channel of you cosplaying her, but couldn't find one. Sorry if this sounds weird, too.
The Carmen sandiego build was from 2021 so you probably just didn't scroll back far enough to find it. You maybe dont need to see the entire hour of Carmen content, but here is a link to the build vlogs: Colleen's HUFS 2021 Build Vlogs: ru-vid.com/group/PL6B297IE51mcD0SO1Tx0RHWH-wRJLmt1n
I love all of them, the one piece one is especially pretty, but Carmen's hat had me outloud say "oh my god I love you," so I think that must be my favorite by default
That's awesome! All my tutorials are for my manual wheelchair, however, @chrysmuu (on instagram) is a power wheelchair user who makes decorations for their chair. I wish I could help more, but maybe you can get some inspo from them!
@@ColleenCosplay thank you! ❤️ As someone who has no clue where to start; it’s great to have resources, and to see other people doing what you’re inner child has always wanted ☺️
Thank you! I used the same sequin fabric for a human sized dress and it just looked like sparkles. You can't really make out the sequin designs on a human sized dress.
I love the captain america and pumpkin wheels! I'm curious, how do you attach them to the spokes, and would you ever consider making a video of your process making a pair of wheel covers? I'd love to try making my own!
Hello! I have a dedicated RU-vid tutorial for each one of these covers on my channel if you're curious. The attachment is different between the foam and fabric covers so I would recommend taking a look around my channel and picking out the video that works best for what you want to make
I have been following you on Instagram for a long time and I love your beautiful cosplays. I just found your channel here on RU-vid. Getting to see the end result of the hard work you put into your cosplays is great for me as two years ago I thought I'd never see again. No one was listening that my eyesight was getting bad again and finally one day I woke up and the blackness started, by that evening I was totally blind. Luckily, I had went to my fiancée's house that day and she and her parents got me to my ophthalmologist and saved my sight. Now after two surgeries and a lengthy recovery and learning to see again I look at cosplays like yours and am able to pick out derails I never noticed before. Little things like that make me happy. Now hearing your story... I realize how blessed I am to have the awesome doctors that I do. I do pray that you get as much help and relief as you can. Sending warm hugs and thoughts your way. Stay strong, stay awesome.
No. People ask me to dress as professor X too. All the time. People ask me to dress as the middle aged bald man only because I use a wheelchair. None of us are safe from that
I am SO happy to see this; my dad is a disabled ambulatory wheelchair user and he introduced me to the original Carmen Sandiego and I absolutely adore every version of her this cosplay is GORGEOUS
You're totally right! This video was posted five years ago and I know a lot more now. Thanks for adding this! I didn't realize people were still watching this video and following the tutorial
Thank you for sharing your story, Miss! And congratulations for being so strong, talented, and inspiring! YOU ARE AMAZING! ❤ I also have Hypermobile Syndrome, and a similar bone condition called Osteonecrosis - it's just the other way around: bone dies first, then, the cartilage. In my right hip it got to the severe stage, that's how they identified it. Much like you explained about your knee on the other video, it started as an annoying pain... that only grew worse... Only after 3 years of the diagnosis, when it was at crtitical stage, and I felt an unberable pain that didn't go away even with - fkng Opium-based - medication... Only then, 3 years after, I got my Total Hip Replacement surgery. Only after I moved, only after I found another Doctor. I feel blessed I found him, because he's a good Doctor and a good person! I feel better to know you also found one of these! They're rare, it seems! lol My life has been better after the surgery. But... I still feel pain from the other affected joints - the other hip and the shoulders - and no treatment or procedure was prescribed. My left knee also hurts, but no sign of Osteonecrosis there. It probably has something, but they cannot see it even through MRI, so they go: "nah, everything's ok with your knee". Familiar, right? It's been almost a year and a half since my surgery, but I still don't feel comfortable walking alone at the streets without an aid. If I have a family member or friend together, I can hold onto them, but if I'm alone I need to bring my walking cane. I don't know how the streets are, how the people and car traffics work in the U.S., but I can say: in Brazil, they're a mess. I'm afraid of tripping, or getting hit, whatever, and not having anything to help me not fall - to my death. Ok, 'death' part is a joke, I'm just afraid of accidents. Sometimes I feel I'm being too lazy - not training my mind to overcome fear and not building up my muscles to properly hold my own body together. Sometimes I feel I'm CHEATING! Even my Doctor had made me feel bad for bringing my cane to the last appointment. He said something like: "you should have already stopped using that". So, yeah... I can understand your journey a little because I'm kinda in a similar one. I know it's tough. But we can make it! Beautifully, artistically! Wearing cosplays of our favorite characters! Again, thank you for sharing your story! And your art! You've inspired me very much. I wish you all the best! Keep being awesome! ☆
The wheel covers are SO COOL its so awesome that like. Idk i just love when people give their own touch to a cosplay and integrate things that arent typically integrated and using your mobility aid to enhance your cosplay is so cool and fun
