Here's the mostly finished dress with the wig. This weekend I got the cape put together, although I ran short of fabric for the hood. I ran out and got some more yesterday so I'm going to finish the base of it up this week. Here it is with my feathers pinned on: I started on one of my other dragoncon projects yesterday... I got my mock-up of it almost ...

Everybody who knows me knows I've been wanting to do this costume for some time LOL I went into this thinking, oh, it'll be quick! Haha, yeah right. Started out with just a basic white robe first. Lined the sleeves with white satin. Then it was time to stamp. I never did figure out *exactly* what the pattern was on the real thing - I ended up going with a ...
I've finished my Corde costume and have added it to my portfolio!
Saturday morning was the parade! I had to iron that monster of my lake dress, and we didn't really get my hair on right - we were in a hurry because we were running late! Neither of us went to the 501st pic, but by the time we got to the staging area, the parade was just starting, so that was lucky! Since the Rebel Legion and 501st march last, ...
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 ...
Weathering the handmaiden robe! This is tough. It was hard to cover up all that stamping work. Used a combo of dye and paint.
I finished the handmaiden this morning!! :D Well, almost, I've got to hem the sleeves of the underdress but that's it. I'm so excited I got one completely finished. I do still have to weather it but technically it's done, I could wear it today if I needed to :) Tonight I'll finish blue Belle and the upgrades to yellow belle, and work on the mando. Mum has tomorrow off, so ...
Made some good progress this weekend! I'll see about posting some pictures this afternoon when I get home from strikeschool/strike work. (I originally typed school! What! LOL I just found that funny) Handmaiden: More stamping, but not much - didn't work on her very much this weekend. Mando: Got my vest 90% finished - shirt is made - pants are almost done. Boots are painted. Armor is finished and needs ...
Handmaiden - got the front panel finished stamping. Yay! :) Mando vest - coming along... i plan to get a lot of work done on it tomorrow night. Belle - blue jumper is cut out and sewn together, needs hemmed. still got to make the white shirt and apron. I'm using a different pattern than when we made this for the BatB production last semester- I like it better. Belle ballgown ...
