Hmm... Is it crossplaying when you're cosplaying as a guy who crossdresses as a girl? Just wondering... On that note, I was rereading Ranma novels the other night... one day I might make an Ukyou costume. Ukyou is cool. Oh yeah Arwen is done. This weekend I am going to finish Sakura, too. Woo! Ooh look a new pic of me as Lum at Otakon! Hee I like this one ...
Yeah my necklace came! It's pretty good for a cheap little thing! Almost finished with thye sleeves... bottom of the dress is finished, buckle is finished, cords are finished but need to be trimmed up a bit. HEe I can't wait for thursday!!
Didn't finish Arwen yet. Still! I'm not happy with the sleeves, and that's holding up progress. Plus my necklace hasn't come. :(
Arwen is mostly done. Haven't done the underskirt or hemmed the bottom of the dress yet, and I still have to make the white sleeves, but that's it. It's so pretty! Next we're going to get White Utena, Sakura and Amalthea done. Then concentrate on my two main costumes for Katsu.
Finished sewing up the side of the Arwen dress and put the zipper in. Made the boot covers. I had enough suede leftover from the bootcovers that I can make a little fellowship cloak. I dyed the gloves the other night, but they were too blue, not dark enough. So i got some black dye yesterday and put them in that... with the whole box... for an hour. They came ...
The Halloween party is back. Yeah, it's really sudden. we're having it the weekend before. I'm wearing Arwen of course. Cath is reprising Sailormoon, this time with the wig and boots. Got cording and stuff for the white part of the sleeves for Arwen yesterday. Also red ribbon for Sakura... forgot to get stuff for boot covers for arwen.
Finally got the pieces cut out for my Arwen dress. Whoo! We also decided not to use the same pattern from Utena's blue jacket for the white one I'm making. Instead I'm going to use the pattern we used for Misato. To-Do List: Arwen- *Sew the pieces together. *Dye gloves, cord, and lacey stuff. *Have dad help me make the belt buckle. *Look into making her necklace. Can't find the ...
I finally got my Arwen fabric today. Got a pattern, too. We wandered all over the store looking for fabric the right colour - we were about to give up and plan to meet at the other Hancock's tomorrow, when we found exactly what I was looking for in the Halloween section. It was even cheap! $4 a yard plus 30% off. I got some light blue suede for the underpart and ...
