Dressform Pics

Here's everything so far. I'm only missing 3 actually so maybe I should have waited, but our server is down at work and I'm bored. Belldandy and Urd from 2003 and 2002, respectively. These two costumes have really stood the test of time. I knew Belldandy was in good shape since I wore her to Momocon earlier this year, but Urd has been packed in a bag for several years. The cape's a ...

when I was in animerica

Does anyone who reads this get Animerica? Apparently I'm in there this month; I'm guessing it's Hild again. If anyone out there has that issue can you tell me what costume it is, whether it's Hild or not? I'm not going to have a chance to go get it until this weekend, so I was just curious. ETA: Here it is!

A-Kon 2004 Pics!

I'm actually not too worn out from Akon!! HP3= liked it. I thought I'd fall asleep in it, but I didn't! I did my 2 panels on friday, and they both went well.
