The photoshoot Saturday went pretty good! We managed to get through all 8, but I almost stopped after 6. I was exhausted. But after a little nap and dinner, I was able to pull together and finish the last 2. I've got 4 of them up so far: Imperial Officer: Played around with a couple of different hairstyles for this but my fav ended up being the braid. Arwen!! Ahhh! OMG I love my ...
So prepping for this weekend's photoshoot has consumed my entire week. But before I dig into that, I guess I should show the results of my Anna Valerious wig re-curling: It's not perfect but I am pretty darn happy with it, and it's miles ahead of where it started out. I may wear it for Ozma too, instead of the Arwen wig! So I started pulling out costumes for Saturday's ...
Besides uploading all my Disney photos, I also got my Disgust photoshoot pictures up! Super happy with how these came out. Here's a few favs... And I have my portfolio updated with the construction stuff!
I've finished my Disgust (Inside Out) costume and have added it to my portfolio!
I uploaded Kevin's MidSouthCon pics from the digital camera already so I thought I'd go ahead and post them. HERE is the link to the whole gallery! I posted my Disgust/Wonder Woman snapchat but here's Kevin's matching Batman: This little Batman was the cutest EVER Full length: As I mentioned my petticoat is showing too much on the side; I'll have to take it up again. And take up ...
This weekend was CRAZY busy... Well let me start with Thursday. I started pulling out stuff for our trip this week, and decided our one stitch patch on our park bag looked lonely, so I dragged out my patch collection to see what I could do. After some fiddling around with placement and seeing what would fit, I ended up with the 3 princesses around Stitch (since he's playing a guitar ...
Finished up the belt last night! I had a big enough scrap of leather in the leather bin to use as a base. I wish it'd been a LITTLE bit taller (like maybe 1/2 inch) but this was all we had to work with, and I didn't want to go buy something new. I made a casing out of the green vinyl for it... btw that vinyl is WEIRD. it's super ...
Yesterday was an interesting day, in terms of progress. I got home and immediately tackled the tights I'd bought for my arms and legs. And immediately regretted it! Even though I hemmed the openings I cut immediately, I was still getting runs and I just really wasn't happy with the way it looked in general. It looked ok on my arms but not on my chest (stretched too much), the ...
I got the zipper put into Disgust last night and was finally able to try the whole thing on: Best of all, I discovered that if I tuck my Briar Rose petticoat up, it's short enough to wear under this, so I don't have to make a whole petticoat!!! Whew. That's a time-saver. I still have to hem the skirt, and sew the shoulder straps together. Monday I got my ...
First up... I worked on my Disgust wig last night! I bought two packs of a green metallic embroidery floss and just started threading it into the wig cap: It was nearly impossible to get a decent photo of, which doesn't bode well for actually wearing it, but in person I think it looks great. I still have a little more to add but I was saving it for tonight ...
