FAQ Friday: Mustafar Padme Hair
Sorry I don’t have any pictures for this like I do for my Leia hair breakdowns; I’m kinda doing this one on the fly! So here’s my best reference for the Mustafar hairstyle; this is from padawan’s guide: And here is an other screencap. To be perfectly honest, my Mustafar costume was a quick, very non-serious costume I did just…

Timothy Zahn Signing Pics! & Leia updates
Well, I Istill/i haven’t worked on anything lately. I did get my ceremonial Leia skirt pieces out and washed them, since it had gotten something on it while laying around in the sewing room (who knows what, probably paint or something. It came off). Mum agreed tonight to look at it with me and help me figure out where I…

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…

Mustafar Padme wrap up
First and foremost: I’ve got to do the hair differently next time. I didn’t pull my hair tight enough, and I need to leave my bangs down in the front a bit (even though I know that’s not how hers is, I just prefer to have my hair like that). Otherwise… The whole costume was wonderfully comfortable! 😀 I’d like…

Lake dress & Mustafar updates
Danielle’s lake dress is nearly done; I spent the afternoon dying the chiffon. Interesting experience… i did it a different way and for the most part i’m pleased with the results. The only thing i was disappointed in was the blue… it faded a LOT, especially at the bottom, so when I dye mine tomorrow I may put the bottom…

Mustafar and Lake Padme Progress
Mustafar: I just kinda tossed the hair up for the picture so it’s not right, but here’s everything but the jewelry. Hopefully Chase will be casting those for me tomorrow night. I’m going to make another pregnancy pad – I don’t like that one… it’s just a pillow and it won’t stay put. Those are pants #2. They’re too light,…

Rogue, Mustafar and Lake Padme updates!
I finished my Rogue straps, the boots and all the little straps that go around her wrists, upper arms and top of the boots! Whoohoo! All I have left to do on her is sew some velcro on the legs and top of the boots so the boots will freaking stay up. And get Chase to finish the center X…

Fabric & SDCC 2006 Schedule
My main brooch for mustafar padme is almost done; I’m a bit stuck on doing the little flowers on the sculpey. Everytime I tried to just carve the shape it ends up not looking right.
