    Dragoncon 2006 wrap-up: everything else

    All the non-new costumes, and how the held up. I wore classic Leia friday morning at the RL table. That was fun! I had planned on doing that last year, but ended up wearing the metal bikini instead. Got pics with PsychoShinji… yay! I missed her when she was in Robin and I was in Starfire last year. I also…

    Dragoncon 2006: Friday pics!

    I’m home from Dragoncon! I got home yesterday and had to work, so I came home and pretty much crashed. It was a great weekend! We did dub it “The Weird Dragoncon” because we didn’t do thinks like we normally did. I’m working on getting my pics up while here at home. I just got my wisdom teeth out at…

    when i was tired of working on costumes

    Atlanta St. Pat’s Parade I’ve never done this event before, and it’s still not 100% that I’m going to go, but if I can hitch a ride… Wearing regular Princess Leia, most likely, if not, battle Padme with new shinguards. MidSouthCon Friday I’ll just be there for a couple of hours most likely. I’ll be staying at the hotel sat…

    First post of 2006

    So far so good in 2006. On Hoth Leia, I’ve gotten the bodysuit mostly put together. I still need to work on the way it fits around my upper legs, and I need to hem the bottom. Tonight I’m going to make the belt then measure off the places for the quilted areas and start on those. I’ll definitely have…

    when I made a cosplay survey

    I hate having wet hair! Now I remember what I was going to do. I was going to comment on the poll so far. 1. Edea. I’m most likely going to do this for midsouthcon in march. I’ve always wanted to go as her, and I do NOT want to try to transport her big metal shoulder thing to an…
