Art Leggings are Ready to Order!

My costume, bodypainting, and graphic design worlds are colliding! I’ve created designs based on my past work and they’re now available printed on leggings. Check them out in my Shop. All orders are processed, manufactured, and shipped through Redbubble.com so they’re only made when you order them. Don’t forget to sign up for the RedBubble mailing list and you’ll save 10% on your first order.

If you’re familiar with my costumes, you may recognize the art from my Fiery Phoenix costume, my Green Dragon costume inspired by Ysera, and my Tribute to Voyager at the 2014 North American Bodypainting Championships. I’m working on more designs too, so stay tuned to Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter OR sign up for my email updates.

P.S. Send me photos of your leggings in action or tag them on social media with #breannacooke!

A Day in a Dragon’s Life

Ever wonder what dragons do all day? You may think that they just hoard gold and breathe fire, but dragons lead a surprisingly normal life. Here’s a glimpse into what goes on:

First, they sit and think.

Then they start working on some chores, like mowing the lawn,

And watering the plants.

They spend time keeping their claws nice and tidy.

They take breaks by watching movies,

And make afternoon snacks.

They clean up the dishes,

And mop the kitchen floor.

Then to top off the day, they go for a car ride! Wheeee!

3D Printed Action Figure of Dragon Costume

I’m an action figure thanks to Captured Dimensions!

This past May at Dallas Comic Con 2014 I opted for a scan session to have my dragon costume 3D printed as a small figurine. It was a really cool process and such a unique way to capture all the hard work that went into the costume.

Step 1: Scan Session

It was like being a movie star! Lots of flash bulbs and cameras capturing me from all sides. I did a couple different poses but this was the final one we chose.

Step 2: Creating the 3D model

These next steps were all done by Captured Dimensions. All I had to do was approve the final model before they sent it off for print. Check it out below! It even earned a “Staff Pick” badge on Sketchup. Twirl the model around to see all sides.

Step 3: 3D Printed Action Figure

Captured Dimensions sent the digital model off to be 3D printed and then came the great reveal! So cool!

Green Dragon Costume inspired by Ysera, World of Warcraft

Halloween 2013 was the year for a dragon! I took most of my inspiration from Ysera in World of Warcraft. I’ve outlined most of the process in my tutorial on instructables.com. Go check it out there or take a look at my process photos below. I also won a 2nd prize from Instructables for my dragon, yea!
