We're home. We had a lot of fun this weekend, like I said. It's going to take me a while to get all the photos up, though, there's so many! He did send me two random Wonder Woman shots - I uploaded one of them. We shot WW at the Parthenon, like I said - and there were a LOT more people there than when we shot Kingdom Come WW ...
The photoshoots went great today, from what I've seen on Chase's computer I'm really pleased, especially with the Wonder Woman shots. I went ahead and uploaded one of my favourite Black Canary ones -- I should have the rest up on my flickr throughout the week.
So I finally took some pics of the new Padme lake dress... but I had to take them because I'm selling it :( Ahh I hate to let it go but it's why I made it. Hopefully it goes to a good home. Here's the ebay link. (eta: link dead, auction has ended)
Secret project is FINISHED! I'll try to post pics tomorrow before we leave. I took these pics a while back, when I bought a new backdrop - I want to try to put together a nice book of some of my costumes, eventually. (Sort-of, to use a portfolio - I've got a nice setup for my artwork, but nothing for my costume-stuff) I finally thought to upload them... This is ...
We got up Sunday morning, got packed up and set off to the Parthenon. We had quite a good turn out! Besides me and Chase, we also had Supergirl, Poison Ivy, Lara Croft, slave Leia and Boba Fett. So we had a great time taking pics. The weather was perfect, the wind was whipping (and a few times would suddenly change direction coming through those columns and would rather toss ...
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 ...
Chase & I were out and about today, and picked up a copy of The Making of Star Wars. We wanted it anyway, but after hearing there was a pic of Carrie Fisher in the ceremonial dress that I'd never seen before, I really wanted it! Yeah, after seeing that, I REALLLLLY am itching to fix mine!! I'm going to find new sleeve fabric, go ahead and order my new ...
Gosh! We took pics of Battle Padme and Lake Padme last night. The battle ones came out ok, not great, but the lake ones, the lighting was way off and I just couldn't figure out why. On the way to work this morning I realised - we had left the light on behind the backdrop. It threw off all the lighting for the rest of the pics. So I'm keeping ...
First off, my new toy came today! oh heck yes... New Leia pics we took a while back-- I want to do the Rebel Legion trading cards this time around, so I needed better pics of some of my costumes. Next up - padme lake dress -- stormtrooper -- imperial officer -- maybe the parade dress Although, speaking of that, when I was cleaning and organizing my costume closet the ...
(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I've been out of town almost every weekend since March, and add to that trying to finish various costumes ...
