new magic bands! I'm Jyn, Chase is Cassian, Kevin is K2SO. I may wear this new one instead of my Haunted Mansion band... my Haunted Mansion band will always kinda be my "AP Year" magic band. Speaking of which, our APs officially expire tomorrow. Anyway, Kevin got to open the box with me, he's excited! This is our first time getting the new packaging/bands, so that was exciting. ...
I had Friday off so I worked solid Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Didn't go anywhere. Just stopped to eat, sleep, bathe, find new thing to watch/listen to. The stupid weather being crazy made me have a migraine the ENTIRE TIME and it's still on-going today. I'm ready to rip my head off. I'm so so so sick of embroidering. On Sunday every time Chase would come into the room ...
...and hopefully it's not a train. I worked pretty much non-stop on Bespin all weekend. From the time I got home Friday through around 10:30 last night. Stopped Saturday to run to the bookstore and dinner with my parents. And for a couple of naps. Again not a great photo of it, the lighting in our bedroom is awful and yellow and I didn't bother to straighten it out very well, ...
I'm breaking this up into sections so I don't forget everything I need to talk about because my brain is fried. 1. Art I've done a few more in my little Star Wars project since last week. Here's Kylo Ren: whatever Here's Lando: meh not happy with how his clothes turned out. Heres Ahsoka: Pretty happy with her! I started out with a much different sketch - more of a static, ...
I managed to finish my prequel trio!! So I'll have all 4 sets available as prints at Visioncon. Here's Anakin His pose ended up being stiffer looking than I wanted but OH well. Obi-Wan: I like how this one turned out, pretty happy with it. I decided to put them both in their Clone Wars looks... more interesting to draw than their jedi robes and does tie back into Padme's battle ...
I have absolutely no progress to show on my embroidery because I mean, it all looks the same. Hi here's another flower it took me 4 hours of my life and it looks exactly like the other 24 I've done already. I am ALMOST done with the bottom half. I should finish it up this weekend. And my hope is to also get the main spires done on all the remaining 4 segments ...
I embroidered all weekend long. Like all day Friday non-stop while I had the day off. Found Unsolved Mysteries (the old Robert Stacks episodes!) on Amazon Prime and just dug in. All day Saturday, just stopped to run out to breakfast with my parents and a few errands (needed more embroidery floss). Sunday morning I took a break to start pulling out my costumes for Visioncon. That took a while. ...
I misspelled embroidery in the title and it was "broidery" which I think is the manly bro version of embroidery. So I finished a couple of other art things recently, in that Star Wars series I've been doing. First up is Luke I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. And then Han Pretty happy with this one, too. I think next week I'm going to revisit Leia - she ...
If you want to ask me any kind of costumey question, I'm doing a Q&A over at VisionCon's facebook page tonight! You can start asking questions at anytime - I'm going to start answering around 7. Here's the event page! This weekend I'm going to start pulling together costumes for the con - I've got a list of stuff I would LIKE to take, I just need to figure ...
It's been a long week, I had a dentist appt that I thought would be short and easy and it wasn't, it totally wiped me out. Not from like, the actual work done, but from the anxiety over it, before and after. Ugh. But I've spent all week printing my costume photos in the evenings which has been a lot of fun, seeing it come together. Here's Luna checking it ...
