Description Helloooo! A new addition for my “Artisan crafts for cosplay” folder! ^^
My friend Harriet (~suzaku3 ) as Dream of the Endless from The Sandman ; outfit and makeup by her, while I painted the cape. Photo by ~laughingpineapple .

Morpheus is said to wear a long black cloak with dancing flames on it; the design changes widely from volume to volume, and those of you who have read Sandman know that it isn’t very… followable, so I came up with a personal design of the flames. I didn’t have a lot of time to paint it, and I’ve never been good at drawing fire, so it’s nothing really special. I tried not to fill the flames in a gradient to match the quite flat and dark appearance of the references. I just hope it had a good outlook! ^^
Back-view of the cape: [link]
Tools: opaque colours for fabrics in cherry red, coral red and yellow.
Time: somewhat around 20 hours.
Please check out other Sandman pictures in ~Cospoison account, or in ~suzaku3 ’s one! Yours Shu was Death of the Endless ^^

Harriet, me loves you!

I love how the flames contrast with the black, almost making them glow, and the sparks! xD

ah the Endlessssssssssssssssssss! I love you for cosplaying this. I'm a hardcore Gaiman fan and especially the Endless. My favourites being Death, Delirium and Dream. The cloak is beautiful!

Sorry, I had missed the comments on this piece! ç___ç Wooow, I didn't knew we shared this fandom, too! That's great news! *___*
I agree with your choices, and I also have a particular fascination for that bitch of Desire. I really wanted a fan's insight opinion on this cape, I hope that it could give the feeling of Dream's one!

He went to a book festival here in Italy too, but I was younger and I didn't know about him a lot. Shame on me!
