Boushh: Weathering regular Wonder Woman: Belt still needs cut down Marasiah: Make tie piece, attach Make tiara Endor Leia: Finish holster & pouch
Friday, Ash came over and we ate spaghetti and pizza and worked on stuff. But first, I went to get my petticoat and discovered it's got dogs. I guess that's what I get for putting it next to her kennel. Geez. And when Ash came over, she brought her new friend. Aren't they cute together? Man I love that mask. YUM! Chase says, put the camera down. So Saturday came ...
I did not get as much done this weekend as I would have liked, but things are coming along. One thing I didn't get a picture of was my upgraded Wonder Woman tiara - I finally found a star the right size and shape, and Chase painted it and attached it last night, and buffed the whole thing. I still need him to finish my other metal pieces and buff ...
I finished the designs on marasiah, yesterday, and also got my boots attached. Most of yesterday was spent on my endor poncho. I had to remake it - I'll explain why, later. It didn't take long - probably two hours, and I fixed some of the problems with the first one. Last night we ended up mostly doing nothing -- I read a lot, we went to the grocery store, ...
Aw. Marasiah and doll Leia may have to be on hold. I haven't done anything with them in ages, and I've got so much left to do on everything else, I don't know when I'd have time to finish them right now. I worked on my Boushh pants some more yesterday, got my boots painted, worked on the boot tops, and worked on the Padme cape and my Wonder Woman ...
well, i can no longer get on the internet at home, something is wrong with my laptop's wireless thingie. I can use dad's computer, though, but I hate being cooped up in the computer room. I suppose it's a blessing - keeps me working. Endor Leia - finished sewing the pleated section on the base helmet - donut is finished, except for adding the bill. Tonight I'm hoping to finish ...
Chase clear-coating the Wonder Woman helmet sculpt again before it gets cast. My endor trooper Leia helmet donut as it was yesterday evening - since then it's been weathered and the red/yellow symbol added. Still needs a bit more weathering, but I'm very pleased. Boushh helmet getting its first shot of paint. Like the endor donut, this has since been weathered and is going back under for more weathering ...
Well, I wrote out my packing list last night. And right now I'm apparently trying to take 18 costumes to Dragoncon. So, it's gotta be cut somewhere. At least by 3. I'm ok taking 15, but not 18! Anyway - I haven't done much lately. Work has been absolutely exhausting this week (I've been the only one in the back this week, basically, where-as usually I have 2 people to help me, but they're both ...
Yep, despite having doused myself with Off last night, I still got about 9 bites while outside dyeing my Endor poncho yesterday evening. I have decided to make a little experiment of them, and trying various home remedies... so far using deodorant seems to be the best. Well enough about that, this is my costume journal not my mosquito bite journal. First off, I was very bad and actually bought a ...
I've been pretty well KO'ed by sinus mess for a week and a half or so now... sucks! I think it's behind me now, though. Here's a few quick updates... Doll Leia - got the bottom and top made, the top needs to be fixed (one side hangs funny, need to pick it out and do it again), and needs the cuffs added. I want to try to finish it ...
