Now that I’m home from Comic Con (FINALLY!) – no time to rest, time to get started on Dragoncon stuffs!
New stuff I’m working on:
Handmaiden: I’ve been wanting to do handmaiden for ages. I’m finally making myself do it for Dcon this year. I’m very excited! I’ve got my pattern and a gameplan – I just need to pick up the fabric I’ve scouted this weekend.
Mandalorian: My custom mando! Whoohoo! I’ve already got my helmet and it’s painted… it still needs a little bit of work. Chase is going to help me with the armor tonight. My gun is about 50% done. I’ve been collecting bits and pieces for it for months now. I’m still in the design-process for what to do about the vest and flightsuit, but it’ll get there. I’m considering this my major project for Dcon.
Ceremonial Leia: If I have time!! I’ve got a new pattern for it, if I can get decent fabric I think I could knock this out in a couple of days – but I may not have time, so for now it’s just in the ‘maybe’ status.
The 80s costumes Melissa and I were going to do are going to have to be put on hold – I think we’re going to do them for Halloween instead.
Wonder Woman: I was thinking we were going to do it next year, but Chase wants to finish it (and thinks we can finish it) before Dcon. I have doubts considering all the other stuff we have to get done, but we’ll see.
Chase’s two costumes: I’m not sure if he wants to keep one secret, but the second I know *I* want to keep secret! I don’t think it will be (sewing-wise) very hard. Hopefully. Cross your fingers.
Also bringing:
Belle – with a few upgrades – I think I may style a wig so I don’t have to fool with my hair.
Ripley – if the aliens want me to bring it, I will. The wig needs some love before then, though.
Padme Lake Dress – if it’ll fit!
Padme Mustafar – if I get the new jewelry done
Regular ANH Leia
Poncho Leia – good for some late night wearin’ LOL
Animated Leia – also good for some late night wearin’!
Rogue – for the group, need to fix those boots of course.
Slave Leia – for the group pic.
Secret costume!! – zomg!
I think that’s it. whew. lots of costume changes in there… but like that’s anything new for me.
I still haven’t figured out what to wear for the parade. I want to do the lake dress for the RL pic, or regular ANH Leia – but I don’t want to wear either of those in the parade (I’d like to pick just one thing for that morning that will work for both the RL pic and the parade, since they’re pretty close together). I’ll figure it out, I guess. Maybe I’ll take Bespin Escape Leia and wear that. Ha. Yep, can’t sit and the boots kill my feet, perfect for a parade!
GO CLEAN YOUR ROOM AND GO TO BED!
