Lum & Lina Inverse updates

Got fabric for Lum and blue fabric for Lina yesterday. Decided not to use the shirt I originally got for it, and to make it. That's about it... Ash got her fabric for Skuld, and gloves and such. I also got her a wig for skuld. We originally weren't going to do that, but I found a good one for a good price, so...  Well, actually when I say ...

Ocha postponed

I think I may hold off on Ocha until DragonCon, and go ahead and do Faye for Otakon. Reason for this is, I was planning on wearing Ocha on Sunday at Otakon. That way if the green face makeup stains my skin, it wouldn't affect other costumes *g* But, we're going to have leave the hotel at like, 10AM to go to the airport, but ash and I were planning ...

Dragoncon suggestions

There's a good chance I'm going to DragonCon this year. It was sort of a sudden decision between Cath and I... she can't go with us to either Animazement or Otakon, so I brought up dragoncon... it looks *really* cool, with a lot of really neat guests and events. I was thinking of costumes... right now I'm working on Xiaoyu 2p (tekken3), lulu, and misato for animazement, and urd, ocha ...

Animazement plans…

Whoohoo! I booked our flight for Animazement. I guess that makes it official now! We leave Nashville at 7:30 AM on friday and get into Raleigh/Durham at 9:40. It was the same price as the first tickets I found, which left Nashville at 7:00, stopped over in Cincinnati (sp?) and didn't get into Raleigh/Durham until around noon. Heh! Too bad I couldn't find a cheap one from Memphis. We'll have to ...

when i got a green wig

How did my Google search get in german? What the... I put up a new quiz! Finally. I guess I'm going to try to do Ocha, seeing as how I now have a pretty green wig. Hehe, changed the ranks on the bbs from Star Wars to LOTR. It was hard trying to categorize everything and figure who was more important than who.

when i made cosplay plans

All right, pardon me but I gotta spill a little cosplay talk into Whisky. Not because I want to annoy you, no, it's because I need your opinion! The costumes I'm planning for next year... er, THIS year are: Rally Vincent (mostly done, will be won when bored at AZ), Misato's NERV uniform (for MidSouthCon in march) She-Ra (MidSouthcon in march) Lulu (Animazement in May) Faye Valentine (Animazement) Xianhua (Animazement) ...

Makeup

Makeup and me do not mix. I can't stand wearing it! The only time I ever wear it is when I'm in costume. And then I have no idea what to do with it. No one ever taught me what to do with it... that's why I wanted my mom with me at MTAC. Well Mom took advantage of the fact that I WANTED her to put makeup on me ...
