Saturday morning dawned annoyingly early. We had to get up at 7:30 in order to get up and dressed for the parade. Cath was smart - she got up, got dressed and got herself out of there before we even got started! I was going to wear Boushh for the 501st picture, and then walk with the helmet off with the Rebel Legion, since Chase was wearing part of his Han ...
95% done, needs more weathering, need to reinforce the spikes on the gloves, and, well, put the spikes on the other glove, too, LOL. I really don't like how my tunic came out, I want to re-do that after Dragoncon, at least take the front panels off and replace them. I cut them too short, especially at the bottom. So yeah, first thing! Oh and I just remembered I need to ...
Boushh: Weathering regular Wonder Woman: Belt still needs cut down Marasiah: Make tie piece, attach Make tiara Endor Leia: Finish holster & pouch
Friday, Ash came over and we ate spaghetti and pizza and worked on stuff. But first, I went to get my petticoat and discovered it's got dogs. I guess that's what I get for putting it next to her kennel. Geez. And when Ash came over, she brought her new friend. Aren't they cute together? Man I love that mask. YUM! Chase says, put the camera down. So Saturday came ...
Did a lot of stuff yesterday. KC WW- My shins wings got painted. Finished the other shoulder piece and got it pinned in, fixed the cape, painted the round cape pins and put them on. Made a new skirt mock up that is MUCH better. Finished the belt. Today -- get the wing harness situated, focus on the WW for the chest, figure out how to attach the cape, and ...
Finished my Boushh boots! I gave up painting the darn things in covered them in the same suede. They look pretty spiffy; I'm pleased. Chase finished putting snaps in my new slave Leia skirts. I tried it on with my new boots and I love it, am once again pleased. Tried on all my finished or near finished Boushh parts -- discovered a few things that need to be fixed. ...
Boushh pants are nearly done! I like how they look. They really just need weathering, now. Chase worked on the helmet for a long time last night, too. He got most of the leather on, I think. We're still fighting with the cummerbund pieces, though... hopefully we'll get them done soon. I worked on WW for a long time last night, because Chase finished the grommets for me. I was ...
Finished padme last night. I can pack her up. And my new slave leia boots, and dyeing my endor poncho. It's a little on the light side, I may dye it again -- AFTER Dcon. I'm tired of fooling with it, now. Chase worked on my Boushh helmet most of the night, and we started attaching my Boushh knees. Tonight, more Boushh knees, Wonder Woman stuff, and Marasiah stuff. One ...
I did not get as much done this weekend as I would have liked, but things are coming along. One thing I didn't get a picture of was my upgraded Wonder Woman tiara - I finally found a star the right size and shape, and Chase painted it and attached it last night, and buffed the whole thing. I still need him to finish my other metal pieces and buff ...
I finished the designs on marasiah, yesterday, and also got my boots attached. Most of yesterday was spent on my endor poncho. I had to remake it - I'll explain why, later. It didn't take long - probably two hours, and I fixed some of the problems with the first one. Last night we ended up mostly doing nothing -- I read a lot, we went to the grocery store, ...
