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 ...
It's a super random post today. First up, I've already talked about Carrie Fisher's passing both on FB and instagram so I'm not going to do it here. I don't want to talk about it no mo. In happier news we booked our hotel for Celebration. We are going to do 3 days at Disney, 1 at Universal, and 1 at the con. Hopefully. Staying at my favourite place of favourite places, Port ...
So mom and I have been working on a simplified version of Glinda's "Popular" dress from Wicked. I keep saying it's a theater project, but it's not really for a play - but it's for a theater related project. Anyway, we went a few weeks ago and picked out fabric, and mom has been working on the skirt. I'm in charge of the bodice. I sent the lining off with ...
So Thursday night Chase had a meeting but I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas, so I attempted to do it on my own. Everything kinda went ok, I managed to get the tree up by myself and got all the lights on. And then I decided I hated all the lights so, so much. The problem with our Christmas tree lights is we always only buy 1 or 2 ...
Ok really there's no "and stuff"... it's just art. But the title seemed too short. First up is this Edith sketch from a month ago. I started colouring a while back but I got bored and haven't finished it. Don't know if I will so I thought I'd go ahead and upload it. Maybe I'll at least finish her hand, put some blood/weathering on the dress, half-ass a background ...
This weekend did not go as planned. Friday we were going to go see Fantastic Beasts... but I was still feeling a little under the weather and wanted to save my energy for the con Saturday, so we stayed home. That night, I did finish the Phis and Gracyn that matches the other SunDowner character refs I did a few weeks ago: And I added them and Yfandes to the ...
I finished up the other two Disney princesses the last couple of days: Cinderella, meh, she was my least fav of the 4 I did. Snow White. I've also gotten all of the art pages/galleries finished and updated so if you wander into the art link in the menu above, it should be easier to navigate. As soon as we get back from Disney, I'm jumping back into Bespin Leia. ...
