I've posted new photos of several costumes! One of them is not really a "new" costume - but it's one I never wore and never had photos of until now! And as a bonus, here's a behind-the-scenes video of how we do a white backdrop photoshoot!
At the beginning of the year I said I wanted to do: 1. Hoth Leia 2. Darth Vader 3. Padme's Lake dress 4. Bespin Leia 5. Finish Yuuko 6. Padme's Funeral Dress 7. Wonder Woman 8. The Bride 9. White Witch 10. Dorothy 11. ANH Leia 12. Team Zissou outfit So what did I finish? Hoth Leia? Yes, plus Bespin Escape: Darth Vader? Yes: Padme Lake Dress? Yes, twice!: Bespin Leia? Nope. Bought the materials, haven't touched them. Finish Yuuko? Somewhat - ...
Chase's turtle turned out soooo good! I'm so impressed. When he said he wanted to do this costume, as a surprise I put together an April O'Neil costume. I wasn't going to tell him, I was just going to put it on at the con when he put on the turtle. But of course I ended up telling him. LOL Not much to this... I found this vintage yellow bell-bottomed, ...
I've finished my April O'Neil costume and have added it to my portfolio!

It's so strange being able to pack my costumes - and not have to worry about shipping or airlines! This is the first time I've driven to Dcon, and the first time in a looong time I've not shipped costumes or had to store things in my luggage. It's an odd experience, but a good one. Chase's costume is almoooooost there. Just a few more things. I just finished my ...
Today was really busy. We made good progress on Chase's costume. It's almost there. The mando is almost done, too. After the weathering on the shirt and vest dry I can finish it tomorrow. Blue Belle just needs one or two more things. Yellow Belle needs her roses sewn on. My secret costume needs the belt finished and the wig styled. I'm wishing now I could off work thursday, so ...
Thanks for all the suggestions in the cosplay poll! I'm not familiar enough with Zelda to do her... nor would I want to do a dress (she does wear a dress right?) I don't like the whole princess thing... TMNT... ha, I think I did that once when I was like, 8... Terra/Rydia/Celes - once again, the familiarity problem... I know nothing about any of them, never played the ...
