Hello, there!

Since we’re brand new to Tumblr, we thought ya’ll might like to know more about us!

Sionnach Studios is the combined effort between Billythebrick Cosplay and The Feathered Hart Costumes!

We have found that we tend to work together on most of our commission projects, and so creating a single name under which to operate was the next logical step. All commission projects and film work will happen here, moving through the studio, with more personal projects appearing on our individual pages. This has been a long standing goal for both of us, and we are beyond excited to see it coming together.

The Feathered Hart (Heather)

Heather has been making with her hands since she was 8 years old. Anything her mom or other relatives put in front of her was fair game–sewing, crochet, knitting, hook rugs, coloring, painting, pottery, sculpture, and so many more. She tried so many things and enjoyed all of them immensely. As she got older and had the freedom to explore more mediums she’d never dared to try in the past, she realized how much she loved making costumes and props because it requires so many skill sets, constantly drives her to continue learning, and has helped give her the confidence to be herself.

She began this with the intent of sharing her passion for creating and her making adventures with the community and she hopes to encourage others to create their own art adventure.

Billythebrick Cosplay (Will)

After almost 20 years in the IT world, Will moved on and decided to make cosplaying and prop building a full-time gig. He’s been doing it seriously for over seven years now. He does everything from sewing and pattern making to foamsmithing, mold making and casting, to 3D model design and printing. And if he doesn’t already do something, he’d love to learn it and add it to his toolbox.

A couple of years ago, Will scored his dream job and worked on a full-length feature film, Prospect and now has an IMDB Page.

Heather and Will have placed in several costume and prop contests as well as judged multiple contests. They also frequently host and participates in cosplay related panels at conventions.

These official 2020 San Diego Comic-Con Events are only on Tumblr

You read that right. Due to certain global events, San Diego Comic-Con 2020 is looking a little different; Comic-Con International is moving online as Comic-Con@Home. Some events will live exclusively on Tumblr at @comicconathome. Get ready for these Comic-Con@Home exclusive events with your free downloadable badge!

The famous 46th annual Masquerade will be held on @comicconathome on Friday, 7/24.

On July 24th, @comicconathome will feature the always popular Masquerade. You’re getting GIFs, pics, and videos of over 50 different cosplay costumes from over 50 different people who will compete for various titles, such as Best In Show and Best Workmanship. Winners will be announced 7/25 right here on @fandom.

We know your dashboard isn’t the same as a ballroom, but cosplayers are nothing but resourceful people who can make the best out of anything. While you may not be able to take photos of the Masquerade, you will be able to reblog the ones appearing. You can also put on your favorite cosplay costume, take a couple of pictures, put them on your Tumblr and slap a #ComicConAtHome tag on the post so other people can enjoy your Animal Crossing cosplay or My Hero Academia cosplay costumes.

The Comic-Con@Home Art Show? Yeah, that’s on Tumblr, too.

This is the first year you can browse the Comic-Con Art Show from the luxury of your couch starting July 22nd. @comicconathome will feature dozens of different artists with varying art styles. While there’s no auction this year, the incredibly good news is artists have the option to link to their stores so you can buy their art with just a few clicks.

The ease of access? Outstanding. The artists? Awe-inspiring. The art? Only at @comicconathome. Go ahead and tap their “Follow” button. You don’t want to miss this.

Comic-Con Masquerade Contest: Heather Robb Costume Name: Medieval Evil Queen

Costume Description: Medieval Evil Queen is my (mostly) historical design based on the Evil Queen from Snow White. This costume was a great way to explore combining a lot of mediums as well as trying some things for the first time. Not only did I design and make all of the garments, but the crown and brooch are resin printed and the embellishments on the dress are 3D printed fabric pieces. I love bringing together modern and traditional costume and prop techniques, and the juxtaposition of those with historical garments really excited me about this project!

Bio: Heather has been making with her hands since she was 8 years old. Anything her mom or other relatives put in front of her was fair game–sewing, crochet, knitting, hook rugs, coloring, painting, pottery, sculpture, and so many more. She tried so many things and enjoyed all of them immensely. As she got older and had the freedom to explore more mediums she’d never dared to try in the past, she realized how much she loved making costumes and props because it requires so many skill sets, constantly drives her to continue learning, and has helped give her the confidence to be herself. She is now co-owner of Sionnach Studios - a costume, prop, & set design and fabrication studio based in Seattle.
