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 ...
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. So, timeline - From 2004-2015 I used the same brunette extensions that matched my 2004 but hasn't matched since 2011 when I went lighter for Donna. I FINALLY updated to red extensions that matched in 2015. And ...
But not long enough... back at work today and it's rough :( So what all did I get up to this weekend... well starting with Thursday night, Chase and I went to the High School Musical Theater Awards. 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 -- ...
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 ...
Hi! I actually did costume stuff this weekend! I am here to tell you about it! But first let's start with Friday. Both Chase and I worked a half day Friday - why? Because Chase's documentary Finding Tobey had its first screening that night!! He has been working on this for FOUR YEARS, and it's finally done. We decided to both take a half day so we had plenty of ...
Ok so here is a super random-a-little-bit-of-everything post since I have various updates and news and a few little things that don't deserve their own post so I'll stick them here. First and FOREMOST.... So yesterday I'm just working away at my desk and I get a fb notification on my phone. So I look at it and... I WON CUSTOM WIG CO'S MAY THE FOURTH CONTEST FROM LAST WEEK ...
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 ...
So a couple of years ago I did a tutorial on how I did my hair for my Amidala Parade costume. I used my own hair, just put into little buns, teased, and pinned in a certain way. It wasn't perfect but it worked OK. I have been playing around with the idea of making a hairpiece for AGES. I started one back in 2010 when I was going to wear ...
This weekend we got to do a really fun event - the Memphis Symphony Orchestra was doing a John Williams tribute and invited us out for it. Friday night we went up to the rehearsal to get an idea of what they wanted us to do. For each Star wars song they wanted a related character or characters onstage. For the prequel era we only had Amidala (me) and Jango. ...
