    Dcon 2014: Emma costume

    So last year I did all these little updates to Emma – mostly fixing the issue with the bottoms not reaching the corset, the cape closures. And then I didn’t wear it last year. I made sure to bring it back this year and got into it on Saturday afternoon. However, after all that, I only wore it for maaaaaaybe…

    Dragoncon 2011 Costume Recap

    First up, Supergirl. My plan was to wear Supergirl all Thursday night; I ended up wearing it for about 20 minutes because I wanted to put on Donna.

We’ll refer to them as “Pink Barf” and “Fur Monster.” I started on “Pink Barf” about two weeks ago and initially made great progress. I didn’t care for the shade of pink of my fabric though, even though it’s what i picked out from…

    So Many Choices

    I can’t decide between 3 costumes for my last dcon costume. I’d been considering an alternate Scarlet Witch Costume, since I could reuse my boots, gloves and wig. That’s been my #1 choice for a while. Also thinking of doing a Shadowcat costume, the basic X-Men uniform suit. I’ve always liked the suit and could reuse it for other characters……
