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 ...
Thoughts & Pics on all the "old" stuff I wore this year... 1. Belle I wore Belle Friday morning for a while. Had wanted to wear it again but didn't get a chance. (Well, that's a lie, there were chances... I just didn't have the energy for it!) I love how it looks with my Marie Antoinette hoops, and really happy with the wig now that I restyled it. If I'm ...
Well I've been home from Dragoncon for a few days but haven't posted a thing here - sorry! It was a good year. Even though I felt like i was a day ahead the whole time (Thursday felt like Friday, Friday felt like Saturday) by the end of it, it felt like it had rushed by way too fast. I was so bummed on Monday because I didn't want it ...
It's that time of the year! Beginning of this year these were my plans: Enchantress - done! Alternate Wonder Woman - aka Hippolyta - done! Lady Blackhawk - done! Rogue - done! Marie Antoinette - done! Charlotte (Princess & the Frog) - no :( Ms Marvel red suit/Moonstone - done! Disney character - no :( TV character - no :( That's probably the best I've ever done actually doing what I said ...
I'm sorry I still haven't finished the site! It took longer than I expected to move my content over (which is done!), so I still have finished it, looks-wise. I do have some updates - all of my Dragoncon costumes are up of course, and I have new photos for Jane, Mara Jade as Arica, Donna Noble, Ms Marvel, Lady Blackhawk and Emma Frost! Here's some of my favs, ...
I've finished my Lady Blackhawk costume and have added it to my portfolio!
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. So now that Supergirl was out of the way (LOL) I wore Donna the rest of the night - there were so many Doctor Who people around and with K9 out, it was really fun. Friday morning I got to wear Marie Antoinette, ...
Here's a few pics I took of stuff I was working on fri-sat. Trying on Lady Blackhawk. My hat is huge! LOL. I will always have that problem because I have a tiny head. Hippolyta embroidery. It's not perfect, but it's going to show up a LOT better than the original drawn on lines. It's a pain and taking longer than I expected, because I'm having to go through the ...
It's a crappy pic, sorry LOL I got my patch blanks earlier this week, and got the hawks embroidered last night, and sewed the patches on this morning. I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out; they're not perfect, especially since I realised about halfway through the first one that I'd reversed the symbol when I drew on my guide. I was too happy with the way it was turning ...
I need to break out the real camera and take some pics to post. My blog is awful bland with no pics. I've been working on "Pink Barf" - got the suit picked apart and cut the legs off. Got new front pieces cut. I had to go back and re-dye them because the chunk of leftover material I dyed didn't get in there long enough. I finished my shoes, ...
