Laughing Reaper is committed to providing top quality costumes and props. Each piece is made to order so that each is a one of a kind work of usable art.  Unlike other sites with a set inventory of mass produced products we make everything by request so feel free to request anything your cosplaying hearts desire.

Happy X-Mas !!!

We wish that your halls are decked out!
(yeah that's GothX and his handlebar moustache holding mini-ornaments)

Our new place is setup and we are working on commissions..... could there be an Alucard duster? Jan Valentine's knit hat? or HALO helmets?
Stay Tuned!

July 24, 2011 
I will be attending Otakon 2011 this upcoming weekend (July 29-31) so this week I will be preparing and finishing my own cosplay as well as traveling and attending the con. SO, be prepared for delayed responses to e-mails, sorry.


July 16, 2011 
FINALLY, got the pages for new items up and linked in our gallery.


Go check them out & ENJOY ! ! !

NEW ITEM (not pictured)
Father Anderson Glove's from Hellsing.
We are now able to take orders for these gloves. They would be made the same as our Hellsing Alucard gloves with the cuffs but the designs on the back would correspond to Anderson's "Speak with the Dead" & " Jesus Chris is in Heaven".

Mar 30, 2011 
GothX is now at Air Force Boot Camp and then onto Tech School afterwards so he will be away for about 8 months. At this time, large prop requests like gun replicas, swords, etc will not be able to be processed/ accepted.

Small props like jewelry can still be requested through me, Baskat, since I'd be the one to make them anyways.

Sorry for the inconvenience but please keep an eye on the website since I'll post an update when he returns and is able to take orders again.

Mar 23, 2011 
Preparing for Anime Boston's Artist Alley Table. If you are attending, please stop by.

We'll be displaying new items like:
Father Anderson gloves, swatch patches, AND Iron-on Hellsing Military Patches


Feb 11, 2011 
You may have noticed the schedule chart on our 'Props Request' page but this is the official announcement. GothX is going into the Air Force. His ship-out date is the end of March so he will be away for a good 8 months and then we will be moving to his stationed base (which is unknown at the moment).

This basically means that any prop request will not be available during this time (probably until 2012). Right now he is finishing his present commissions before he leaves. I have requested that he makes some Alucard glasses so that I will have a couple available when requested.

I, Baskat, will still be taking costume/ apparel commissions. Small props like jewelry would normally be made by me so those are still welcomed to be requested.

Eventful Happenings: Mostly Conventions 


We are eagerly awaiting for Anime Boston.

Our Artist Alley table has been confirmed and paid for. So if you are attending, stop on by and say Hi.
>^-^<

NEW ITEM To Be Sold ! ! !
Mock Security Signage
(Image an 'ADT' like sign but with other popular 'company' logos like Hellsing, Nerv, Lauging Man, Halo, Zelda, and Tachikomas)

While GothX is still at Air Force Training, I'll be attending Otakon 2011.... and bragging about everything I see >^-^<

If you happen to be around, I (Baskat) will be cosplaying Baiken from Guilty Gear (oh yeah!). I'll be walking around w/a red parasol (opened mostly outside) so I'll probably stand out from other possible Baikens.

Also at Otakon, there will be one of our new commissions: Bondage Alucard... in matte vinyl (yeah that cosplayer is gonna 'die' in the heat but I'll be keeping my eye on him). So if you happen to see him, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did designing and making it >^-^<




We are eXcited about the upcoming Anime Boston in 2011. We will be having an artist alley table at the convention so stop by and say Hi! Our table will be named on their list, just look for Laughing Reaper. Unless something changes, we are placed at table W113 which is near the front aisle and a few tables down from the Art Show's info desk. Just look above the tables for our long white banner.

We will also be featuring our friend who will be selling her fan art. Such pretty pictures, yum!

I, Baskat, will have jewelry that I've designed as well as basic cosplay items like Alucard gloves. I'll also have Hellsing patches PLUS new items (some mentioned below)

Do you like scavenger hunts?
 
Since we are unable to display samples of our actual commissioned props like weapons (convention rules), we are inviting you to hunt down cosplayers using/ wearing commissioned items. Find these cosplayers, get a picture of and/or with them and get the codeword THEN come to our table (W113) to show us and you get a FREE Hellsing patch (worth $5). (Reference pictures will be posted at the table)

Commissions that will be at Anime Boston 2011:
-- Bondage Alucard (using actual vinyl)
-- 7.5ft
Harkonen cannon carried by Seras from Hellsing
-- Grell's chainsaw from Black Bulter/ kuroshitsuji

-- Kamina from Gurren Lagann (cape, pants, sword)

~ ~ ~ N E W     I T E M ! ~ ~ ~
We will be featuring a special item at our artist alley table. It's an original from us and it's a must have for any cosplayer away from home: Cosplay Repair Kits.

Cosplay Repair Kits Will Includes:
Button Assortment, thread and needle assortment, scissors, safety pins, super glue, duct tape, foam tape, instant hem tape, sticky-back velcro, sew-on snaps


I hope to also offer Anderson's glove designs as well as Alucard's Jackal gun's 'Jesus Chris is in Heaven' engraving as patches.
(These will be included in the Scavenger hunt's reward listed above)

We are not doing a skit this year BUT we have a great idea for 2012 that we hope you'll love! ....can you say Anime Celebrity Jeopardy take 2?


Otakon 2010 (July 30 - Aug 1)
Came and gone already >*-*;<

Convention was fun as usual. Artist Alley was full of cute, fluffy items and the Dealer's Room was full of yummy manga (Go Hellsing vol. 10!!!).

GothX continued his Ragna cosplay. Unfortunately, shipping the sword and the humid weather, Ragna's sword will need a tuneup. Can you believe that the heat and humidity actually affected the interior structure enough to crack the fiberglass on the exterior.... to affect the FIBERGLASS... it's crazy! 

Baskat was able to fine tune items and debut her Taokaka, YAY. My claws were long and 'sharp' and my grin was wide. If you were one of the many who gave me, Taokaka, a treat during the con then THANKS! For some I gave the prize for changing my facial expressions, it was fun! For a short time one of the artist from Artist Alley gave me, Taokaka, a handlebar moustache and a goatee... I looked so awesomely evil, thanks!!!

We hope to be able to see many of you again at Anime Boston 2011!!!

* * *

The con has come and gone and after 5 days of getting about 8hr of sleep total, I was able to sleep to my hearts content.

Friday was a bust as we were still finishing the little details of our cosplay. As a result, GothX was Ragna (coat done with the exception of some added plates) for both the remaining days of Sat. and Sun. Taokaka was not to my liking when I put it on so I was Winry on Sat. so I didn't have to change for our skit later in the evening. On Sunday,
I, Baskat, was Aisha Clan Clan in the chess game.... where I took down Saber from Fate/Stay night only to be the few alive at the end to be slaughtered by the Alucards.

* * *

Our skit "Vash's World" in the Masq went well!!! Unfortunately we got no awards. There were a large number of master level skits that were wonderful! We still had hopes of getting a presentation award for the intermediate level, us, but to no avail.

For those who want to see, ACParadise posted their videos,
YouTube : Vash's World Skit

We would like to thank everyone who cheered for us. As well as those who said we should have gotton something, sorry to disappoint.

* * *

  If you happened to have attended, our group did perform in the Masq. for once as well as our usual in the Cosplay Chess Game.

"Anime Celebrity Jeopardy" was our skit, Baskat was Major Mototko and GothX was Wolfwood, the host.
YouTube: Anime Celebrity Jeopardy Skit
We were lucky to receive a judge's award AND the MC's award (a higher level judge's award lol)... yes the MC actually bowed down to us after the skit; BANSAI!!!

We were happy to have found we were mentioned in Coswatch's blog/ review of Anime Boston 2009. Unlike Coswatch saying we could having the potential to win we only got the judges awards. *cries*
Also notable was Electric Sistahood's review of Anime Boston 2009's AMVs with a mention of our skit being, in their opinion, the best skit.

As for the Chess game; GothX was Psycho Mantis while Baskat Was Major Motoko with her 3ft Pen-Pen.
