Lately I have been playing around with the idea of remaking my Lulu costume next year. Not because I hate my original version from 2002 or anything; but more just as a fun thing to do. It would for the most part, be fairly easy, with some interesting parts, and I think some of my original pieces could be re-used. I think it would be neat. I've also probably got everything ...
More Animazement pictures ... there's me and Ash on the first page of pics as Xiaoyu (tho we're listed as "more card captor sakuras"!) And then later on there's two of me as Lulu. You know, I realise I didn't wear my wig correctly, now. The part of hair on the right side of my head should have been over my eye. But see... that eye is my good eye, my ...
I like my lulu costume. but I'm not satisfied with it. I wish I could find some lovely grey leather like material and redo the sleeves and skirt. Make the skirt longer in the back. Wider on the sides. But the thing that really bugs me is the trimming. Yeah, we bought it and sewed it on. It wasn't that hard. But... it doesn't really look all that much like ...
Things to do: *Hotel reservations for Dragon Con *Airplace tickets for Dragon Con *Hotel reservations for MTAC I've decided we're going to go to MTAC for at least Saturday. Drive up early Saturday morning, spend the night there and leave Sunday morning. One night at the hotel will be cheap. And since it's pretty much just that one day, I'm pretty sure I can talk Cath into coming. And I'll ...
I finished my Lulu costume and got it added to my portfolio!
Welllllll thanks a lot you stupid page... as soon as I email hispeed it comes back up. Now I'm going to get one of those "It comes up for us," emails. Bleh! I posted some pics I've found of ash and I at az in my livejournal, but here's a few more I've found: Ling Xiaoyus: She-Ra Misato Cosp/ACP 1, 2, 3 Lulu I wish I'd come on home with dad and ...
Yep, tomorrow at this time I'll be at Animazement :D I know this should go in my cosplay journal, but OH WELL! Xiaoyu... I'm pretty satisfied with Xiaoyu. I'll probably wear it most of the day friday, with Ash in her 1P Xiaoyu costume. Speaking of which, I painted the design on the back of Ash's Xiaoyu costume, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out :D Misato... I'm ...
Ok, so nothing much got worked on yesterday. I'm trying to decide what I want to make my Lulu hairpieces out of. At first I was going to do sculpey... and I made one... and it looks horrible. So now I'm thinking some light foamboard type stuff. Easier to cut, that's for sure. Ash says she got ALL the fabric for Xiaoyu yesterday!! YAY! So she's definitely doing both Xiaoyu ...
Just about finished my Xiaoyu shoes last night. Also made my purple lulu necklace. I went to Mr Lincoln's day before yesterday and got some face makeup type stuff for Lulu. That lady asked what I was doing and I told her, and she actually knew who I was talking about it! (her son has been playing that game, she said) So she helped me pick out what would be ...
Well, today was pretty good! Cut out the front of my Lulu skirt... we've got to go get some boning tomorrow to start on the skeleton for underneath it. And we got a lot done on Xiaoyu today!! We got all the blue done, and most of the yellow at the top is done. Parts of that still have to be sewn on, along with the little things coming off ...
