some stuff

They can't all be good titles ok? I drew Diana. just a time waster. I ended up liking just the lineart better than the finished thing so I'm glad I took a screencap of it. I did a little more than that but didn't like it so I'm leaving it like that one. In other news a couple of weeks ago I finally figured out how to work the portfolio ...

Yeah, go to Jackson, go comb your hair

Spent the weekend in Jackson! Had a great time. Friday night we just picked up dinner and ate at my grandparent's which worked out great because I was able to watch RuPaul's Drag Race (I thought I'd have to wait til I got home Sunday). Played some battlefront with Chase, he hated it. But at least he played. Saturday we had breakfast at Cracker Barrel and then ran to Joann. ...

I mentioned this in yesterday's post, but that post was so long I didn't want to jam this in there too... besides I wanted to get some pics of them on to add to it, also.

I FINALLY updated to red extensions that matched in 2015. And ...

It was supposed to have been me and mom going, because one of the schools we did costumes for was nominated for Best Costumes (well, it was mostly mom this time around -- ...

hulk smash

I am getting SO frustrated with USPS. The last two small things I've ordered -- my tablet glove back in March, and now my fabric swatches -- have both gone missing. The tablet glove made it to Memphis and then just disappeared. After 3 weeks Amazon refunded it (not like it was expensive to start with)... and then it finally showed up, at the beginning of MAY. A month and a ...

Photoshoot Stuff!! Part two

I got the rest of my photoshoot stuff uploaded over the weekend! First up is Bespin Leia. Some thoughts. I took the length up of the tunic a bit for the photoshoot but it created too much fabric at the waist/belt-line and looked sloppy :( I think I just need to take the whole thing apart and go back to like, step 2 - take the sides up a little, remove ...
