Leia sneak peek!

Here's a sneak peek of Leia... just did the buns really quickly so they don't look great, but I wanted to try it all on :)

Leia almost done…

Still working on the belt, but the dress is finished now:

Integra photoshoot pics!

I took some new pics of Integra yesterday. Previously the only good pics I had were taken at MTAC - but at MTAC I had forgotten pieces (the gloves, the middle part of the belts, etc), so I wanted some more pics. Integra is off to work! A closeup. My lower belt was out of place in most of the pics and I didn't realise it. *slaps head*

Leia Progress

I haven't updated in a while! Well I'm not making Meg for Halloween. I opted for ANH Leia instead. I've already made the dress twice. I didn't like the first one, so I got a different fabric and a different pattern and tried again. I'm still not 100% satisfied but it'll have to do, as I don't have the extra $$ to pay for MORE fabric. The thing is basically done - ...

when i forgot to take my eyeliner off

"Random Thoughts" Uuuugh I didn't take my eye makeup off after the movie last night and slept in it... now it's all smeared around my eyes and I'm all creepy looking :D I swear, if Cath doesn't stop trying to set me up with every guy she knows I'm going to kill her. And that's that. I liked wearing my hair in Leia danishes! I'm going to have mom put ...

when we dressed up for star wars

I was tempted to post after I got home from the movie last night (this morning?). It was 3 AM and, despite the fact I'd been tired coming out of the movie, I had woken up a little more by the time we got back. I wore my Leia costume, and yes, I ended up being the only one out of our group dressed up. I got quite a few stares ...
