It's been a bit since I did a regular post! I've been concentrating on getting the birthday blog posts up and going. So let me pick up since the last post. Chase and I split an amazon gift card from Christmas and I got this: Oh yes. It's good. And we got a lion hat for Luna. She hates it. But at least she enjoys it as a toy (she ...
I've posted new photos of several costumes! One of them is not really a "new" costume - but it's one I never wore and never had photos of until now! And as a bonus, here's a behind-the-scenes video of how we do a white backdrop photoshoot!
sorry it's taken me so long to get a new one up. This one took a while, in between cleaning and organizing and everything going on. this is my mandalorian costume from 2006. it took forever to do :P

Bought the materials, haven't touched them. Finish Yuuko? Somewhat - ...
Out of all my new costumes for Dragoncon, this was my favourite! I'm very proud of how it turned out. It was fun and comfortable to wear, and for the first time ever I had 10 year old boys wanting their picture with me. LMAO. We painted the helmet ages ago. Here's my helmet in-progress: > Here's my vest in-progress: My vest and collar armor on the dressform (with the Belle ...
I've finished my mandalorian costume and have added it to my portfolio!
Saturday morning was the parade! I had to iron that monster of my lake dress, and we didn't really get my hair on right - we were in a hurry because we were running late! Neither of us went to the 501st pic, but by the time we got to the staging area, the parade was just starting, so that was lucky! Since the Rebel Legion and 501st march last, ...
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 10 this morning - only the two on the right side. ...
It's so strange being able to pack my costumes - and not have to worry about shipping or airlines! This is the first time I've driven to Dcon, and the first time in a looong time I've not shipped costumes or had to store things in my luggage. It's an odd experience, but a good one. Chase's costume is almoooooost there. Just a few more things. I just finished my ...
Today was really busy. We made good progress on Chase's costume. It's almost there. The mando is almost done, too. After the weathering on the shirt and vest dry I can finish it tomorrow. Blue Belle just needs one or two more things. Yellow Belle needs her roses sewn on. My secret costume needs the belt finished and the wig styled. I'm wishing now I could off work thursday, so ...
