Trying out Patreon

In 2021, I setup this website with its blog format to get away from Social media algorithms and guarantee that you all would be able to see my content. I setup the website and an email list you could subscribe to. It's funny to think about since it's very old technology (Blogger and email list) and it did ok. 

Well it's 2022 and I'm exploring something new. 

Most know that Patreon can be used for creators to collect funds from followers but what you probably didn't know is that it also hosts a way to post FREE content and email/notify it out to all users interested. 

So going forward I think I'm going to give it a try. I want to keep my content free in general so that won't change but I have also had people who wanted to support me as well so maybe in the future I might create extra content with that in mind. 

I'll also be forwarding Jerikandra.com over to there as well. Follow me there and you'll get the same email updates you got via this website , except you also will have the added benefit of using the Patreon app if you want to get non-email based notifications too! 

Oh this is also easier on me as I can use an app on my phone to post content instead of always having to jump over to the web to make these posts. 

Anyway, check out my new patreon page at : http://patreon.com/jerikandra . 

You can Follow for free or become a patron.

Thanks for being awesome followers and supporters of my work!

September Streaming Schedule

 September is almost here! I'll be in at Atlanta for DragonCon for the first week of September but when I get back, we're going to get back into streaming. 

I am hoping to start on a new game, "I am Setsuna" and of course Genshin impact streams will be happening periodically too. 

Finally, I'll host a Karaoke stream on September 17th, it's been a while!

New Music Video: My Favorite Toys

For my CHEER Seattle PRIDE 2022 Fundraiser, I let donors vote on the topic of my next music video parody. "My Favorite Toys" was randomly suggested and it won. 

So hey! I got creative lol. Hope you enjoy! 

This video is not affiliated with CHEER Seattle or any other organization but rather is the creation of myself alone. Thanks to my boyfriend, Ryan Rainbow, for being a part of it. =) 

That being said, if you would like to donate, check out CHEER Seattle: http://cheerseattle.org

ECCC 2022

 Well I have to say, I really enjoyed the 4 days at ECCC this weekend. 



We finally got to debut the Latex Powerpuff girls (Abi Sue, Mina P, and me) which we had originally planned to debut in 2020! 

I also got to wear both of my new tutus I made in 2020 as well. 




Happy I got some good photos in all of these too! Look for those coming soon. 

If you want to see more pics, I setup a quick album:

ECCC Lineup!

 Emerald City Comiccon is this coming weekend! Here we go! These are my plans! 



- Thursday I'll be wearing my Cartoon Latex Supergirl (Tero Photography)

- Friday I'll finally get to wear Gwen Ballerina! (Hudson Michaels Photography)

- Saturday I'll be part of an awesome group cosplay with Abi Sue and Mina P as we will be the Latex Powerpuff girls! At some point, I may switch out of that and into Lola Bunny. We'll see. 

- Sunday I'll wear the other tutu I made in 2020, Supergirl! =) 

The great thing is I have 2 more new cosplays to show off at DragonCon too! It's been a good season for making new things! 

Hope to see you at the con! If you see me, say hi!


 We had a great time at the Midsummer Renaissance Fair this weekend! I wore my new latex pink fairy outfit. 


We shot arrows and threw axes and ate some food and some some friends. 

The lines to get in were kinda horrendous including the traffic but we made it work.

More pics here: https://myalbum.com/album/jjHvUSppRLrXb4/

The latex got kinda dirty so I'm not sure I'll wear latex again to a renne faire again haha

Started on Latex Velma

I started on Velma's top this week! I decided to make it sleeveless because I didn't want to fuss with a zipper. It'll be easier to wear in Atlanta in the heat anyway without sleeves haha.

Lola Bunny Try-on

 Excited to finally try on Latex Lola Bunny!

Ack! I just realized I Forgot to get a shot of the back with the cute tail! Haha oh well. I'll get real pics at con.

I'm a little disappointed with the top. It still ended up a bit loose at the bottom so I may take it apart again and fix it similar to Tifa's and then update the pattern once again. We'll get it right at some point! haha. 

The bottoms came out ok, considering I did do a pattern test but one thing I thought might go away was a bit of the sag/ruffled crotch going on. I'm not sure I can fix it and I'm not sure how yet. But we'll see for future costumes. It's not too bad really.

Otherwise Lola Bunny is done and ready for DragonCon!!!

Another Latex Stream, Another Pink Dress

 Started on another latex pink dress last night during the stream. Not sure if yall remember but I made a pink dress on stream last year (or maybe 2020?) for Abi Sue for our Power puff girls cosplay. This one I am making for myself and hoping to wear it to Renne Faire next weekend!

Tifa Try-on Take 2

 Well after making the skirt, I finally had a chance to try it on and also try on the 'fixed' top as well. I'm pretty happy with the results, I have to say!

See what you think:

I can't seem to find my black latex thigh-highs so I will prob have to make some next!

I'm looking forward to wearing this at DragonCon Labor Day weekend.
