Jihl baton is finished except for a couple of metal filigree pieces to be added.
Base paint:

Detailed:


One Blue Spirit arm bracer. See how I make this costume more difficult than it should be?


The Lady Blackhawk hat is done, and the larger logo for the front of the jacket is ready.


The Dune sticks are ready to be shipped except for one small painting modification.

Cosplay: Dune Maker Hooks by =elfgrove on deviantART
Separated into halves for travel:



My entire weekend was pretty-much sacrificed to cosplay. Here you can see the still-drying Blue Spriit mask base, the arm & leg bracers with gold fire-nation symbol details, and the finished double sword sheath. (Sash and the rest of the costume are not pictured.)
The Jihl baton and Blackhawk logo for the jacket are in there, as well as the Dune Maker Hooks. And of course, various propping materials are lined up to the side.

Psst. It's also called crazy. I gotta lay off a little. ;)
Maybe I'll do a few more prop commissions than new costumes in the future.
