Award-winning cosplayer and propmaker, Maker Fishmeal will demonstrate how to create gorgeous, light-weight foam props for cosplay.

Maker Fishmeal believes that cosplay brings joy, that making is an incredible form of creative self-expression, and (most importantly) that everyone can cosplay! Their goal with every costume is to learn something new so that they can pass on that understanding through guides and workshops. They maintain that every part of the cosplay process is an opportunity for finding  delight and fulfillment!

Fishmeal is an award-winning foamsmith, sewist, and propmaker who loves a juicy hidden detail and a super clean seam. They are the author of The Ultimate Glue Guide: Everything You Need to Know About Adhesives for Cosplay Crafts & More! from C&T Publishing.
