to-do list 8/13/07
Aw. Marasiah and doll Leia may have to be on hold. I haven’t done anything with them in ages, and I’ve got so much left to do on everything else, I don’t know when I’d have time to finish them right now. I worked on my Boushh pants some more yesterday, got my boots painted, worked on the boot tops,…

when i redid my livejournal
So I totally change my livejournal the other day. New header pic, new name, new colours and new userinfo LOL. The pic (and the new name) is of my dad’s first band. I thought it was one of the best pics I’ve ever seen. I’m on dad’s computer right now, since my wireless is still not working. I’m waiting on…

Movie Rogue came! And Slave Leia updates
My Chinese Sweatshop Rogue costume arrived yesterday (after days of fighting with the post office). It’s kinda nice to just have a costume magically appear on your doorstep, LOL. It’s pretty nice for what it is, and for what I paid. The only problem was that it was too big. It fit kinda ok through the chest and shoulders and…

Endor Leia and Boushh progress
Got the colouring on the poncho about half done. Got my Boushh pants put together – I just need to put elastic for my foot on the bottom, and do the quilted/pleated/whatever they are sections on the knees (my favourite part of the costume!) But, mostly spent last night sewing on bloodstripes and watching Hot Fuzz. good times.

when i had my teeth cleaned
I had a teeth cleaning today at the dentist. My teeth hurt so bad ;_; I HATE cleanings, they are like 10x worse than anything else. I’d rather go through wisdom teeth or anything other than that. I wish they’d let me have the laughing gas during the cleaning… 🙁

Progress on everything
well, i can no longer get on the internet at home, something is wrong with my laptop’s wireless thingie. I can use dad’s computer, though, but I hate being cooped up in the computer room. I suppose it’s a blessing – keeps me working. Endor Leia – finished sewing the pleated section on the base helmet – donut is finished,…

when my laptop sucked
My computer is the biggest POS in the world! 1. The fans don’t work, so it can’t cool itself off. I have to keep ice packs in the freezer for when it starts getting hot. 2. If I do anything major – ie, big file in photoshop, or something “difficult” on the internet (like flickr’s organizr), my computer will flip…

when i was disconcerted
I slept SO hard last night. I woke up at 8:30 and was all disconcerted. I woke up and was like, WHERE IS CHASE WHY DIDNT HE WAKE ME UP HE KNOWS I HAVE TO BE AT WORK AT 9! and then I realised DUH…. Chase is at WORK already like ALWAYS… and I don’t have to be at work…

KC WW, Endor Leia, Boushh, and Marasiah Progress
Chase clear-coating the Wonder Woman helmet sculpt again before it gets cast. My endor trooper Leia helmet donut as it was yesterday evening – since then it’s been weathered and the red/yellow symbol added. Still needs a bit more weathering, but I’m very pleased. Boushh helmet getting its first shot of paint. Like the endor donut, this has since been…

Kingdom Come Wonder Woman Helmet progress
Here’s a few more pics of the WW helmet in progress, plus a pic of our workroom I left out. Chase started the sculpt over a year ago – we were hoping to finish it for Dragoncon 2006. Around this time last year we realised there was no way we were going to get it done, so it sat around…

Big Scoop Troop Pics!
Big Scoop pics are up in my 2007 Trooping Gallery. I was so worn out after it, to the point we didn’t even get to go see the Simpsons movie last night like we had planned. 🙁 Here’s one pic of Chase.

Funeral Padme updates
I got off work early today… so I came home, ate some lunch, and actually got some work done. I went outside and played with the dye… another layer of dye on my endor poncho, and navy on the funeral cape. If they both stay as they are, I’ll be happy. I think the poncho will be fine – but…

Progress & Schedules
Well, I wrote out my packing list last night. And right now I’m apparently trying to take 18 costumes to Dragoncon. So, it’s gotta be cut somewhere. At least by 3. I’m ok taking 15, but not 18! Anyway – I haven’t done much lately. Work has been absolutely exhausting this week (I’ve been the only one in the back…

HP Book Release, KC WW Helmet!
Been busy with Harry Potter stuff — no pics from the bookstore party, since I forgot to get my camera out of the car. I wore Hermione and burnt up, since we ended up standing outside in line most of the night. There weren’t many interesting costumes, either — we had a really good Snape there, an Umbridge, and… a…

Oh, and MY RING!
More importantly than Harry Potter, at least in my book — my engagement ring came back from being sized three days early! We ended up being late to Melissa & Josh’s friday night because we just had to go get it. i’ll try to take pics pretty soon. i love it so much, it was nice to be able to…

SURPRISE! Marion Ravenwood
We went to see Raiders of the Lost Ark at the Orpheum recently, and I (in the middle of all my other projects) for some reason decided to put together a Marion Ravenwood costume. I drew up the shirt designs in photoshop and heat-transferred them onto the shirt. The shirt I made using leftover fabric and a pattern. Bought the…
