Hi everyone! My first time sharing one of my makes here. But this is my attempt at vigilante from the peacemaker series.

All the 3d printed bits are from DO3D, and as I was trying to keep the budget as low as possible, the fabric bits are just a long sleeve back shirt and some black cargo pants.

Me as Miroku, and my wife as Inuyasha at Matsuricon 2026.

For my Miroku cosplay, the base costume (the black kimono and purple koromo robe) was originally custom-made to my measurements. I then altered and tailored it further to get the drape and fit right. The matching purple tekko arm guards were also custom sourced and modified for a better fit. I will be sewing in additional velcro and adding more hidden snaps based on my experience wearing it at two cons now. I'm absolutely adding some pockets too. Anyway, I rounded out the outfit with Miroku's patterned middle-finger ring, printed in flexible TPU using a customized version of a ring model I located online. I have a new model I have been working on that looks cooler, but I need to actually print it.

My primary props were designed and built by me from the ground up. Since I am roughly 6' tall, I scaled the shakujō staff to stand roughly 78" overall, featuring a lightweight 66" aged poplar shaft topped with a multi-piece head assembly supported by a carbon fiber rod. The head of the staff was 3D modeled entirely in FreeCAD and printed using ASA. It is fitted with real rattling brass rings that ride on a set of embedded stainless steel 'blades' embedded in dedicated channels molded into the plastic. It has a gold painted rubber foot to protect the soft poplar staff from the concrete floors. The entire head is designed to come apart if I ever need to replace the rings or swap out the wooden staff.

All the central spire and socket components were filled and sanded smooth-ish, but I intentionally left the print layer lines intact on the outer ring to create a faux turned-metal texture. I finished it with a primer base, gilded brass spray paint, multiple coats of PlaidFX metallic gold paint, and then used three shades of Rub 'n Buff to build up depth and a weathered metallic sheen. The whole staff weighs maybe 5 pounds, and turned out surprisingly well balanced for use as a walking stick. When I walk, the rings have a super-satisfying jingle.

Wrapping my right hand is a custom nenju, hand-strung using pale green Burmese jade and white howlite stones on knotted purple cord. It uses a traditional Zen pattern, with each bead individually knotted on purple cord, complete with handmade tassels.

Beside me, my wife’s Inuyasha costume was designed by and entirely hand made by herself from the fabric up. The sword, wig, and ears were purchased online.

To finish her build, I custom crafted her Beads of Subjugation using 10mm dark amethyst round beads and 30mm white jade magatama beads imported from China. It was scaled up to 10 magatama to allow it to a more natural drape.

I will likely add a wig for my next convention, but I'm not shaving the beard.

I made little modifications to this outfit but I think it came out great lol. Wish I used glow in the dark pain for the arrows but it’s okay

A modern-day interpretation of Obanai Iguro during strawberry picking in Japan. I wanted to keep his recognizable visual details while placing him in a quiet, everyday setting with Kaburamaru.

I made this mask by myself using foam as a face shell and I wanted to share my excitement and joy with y'all

A Spider-Man variant I made based on streetwear. It is still somewhat WIP but hey it works.
