Costume Updates!! and Ame-Comi WW preview

Sorry I haven’t posted much – we’ve been working pretty much non-stop, trying to finish everything. On friday we found out the guy was not going to finish my wonder woman stuff, either, so we had to swing into action and a figure out a half-decent way to do it outselves. It came out pretty well. The situation just sucks – if we hadn’t had to spend the better part of the weekend coming up with Chase’s Green Arrow armor and my Wonder Woman chestpiece/belt and side pieces, we’d have been finished with everything by now.

So yeah, still got a few more things to do:

Starfire:
Paint collar, attach velcro

WW:
Finish pouch
Put wings on shoes
Wrap handle of sword

Here’s a sneak peek of how stuff is looking on WW.

Testing out the fit of my bodice - along with the rig for the shoulder armor. Also seeing how I do having both hands full with props!Kelldar.com | My Facebook Page | Tumblr | Instagram

And here’s my poor dressform being subjected to torture:

Well, the guy who was supposed to be making my chest piece, side armor and belt just told us today - a week before Dragoncon, that's it not going to be finished.So, brainstorming session. We decided to make a last minute version of these items out of wet-formed leather. Here's the chestpiece being formed over my dressform.Kelldar.com | My Facebook Page | Tumblr | Instagram

We were wet-forming the leather for the chestpiece and needed things to keep it held down LOL

And Chase is weathering his clone.

We’re picking up the van this afternoon, and I’ve got to take Indy to grandma’s… and then come home and finish packing, since we need the van packed tonight. We roll out at 6Am tomorrow morning. That should hopefully put us in Atlanta around 3 – taking into account the time change, and stopping for lunch, gas, etc.

I’m finally feeling excited again, now that we’re on the downside of everything.

    Sorry to hear that you were let down – that must be so frustrating, on top of trying to get everything else finished in time!

    Hope your trip goes smoothly, and you all have a great time at D*Con – looking forward to all the great photos! 🙂
