I asked Chase which should be my next superhero costume - I gave him a choice of 4 - Zatanna, comic-book Starfire (which I've wanted to do since doing the Cartoon Network version), Power Girl or Scarlet Witch. He didn't like Power Girl, which I didn't expect him to, he wasn't too keen on Zatanna, either - he said Starfire or Scarlet Witch, but I think he liked Scarlet Witch better. ...
The blue dress is finished, except ironing. Got it all taken up, hemmed, and the sleeves fixed. The white shirt still needs the cuffs on the sleeves and the collar. Other than that, it's finished. I'm regretting my fabric choice on the shirt, though. Already! Geez. So, the upcoming Halloween-related events: Friday - leave for Nashville Saturday - Nashville Comic/Horror Fest. I'll be going in blue Belle (since it'll ...
Nashville Comic/Horrorfest is ON :) I think I may take regular Leia or Animated Leia -- blue Belle if I finish it in time -- yellow Belle for the zoo Sat night, and Kingdom Come Wonder Woman for a photoshoot on Sunday. I got the parts of my blue Belle dress cut out and sewn together. I decided to cut it out as a medium instead of a small, so ...
I realise this isn't going to affect most people on my LJ list, but I thought I'd throw it out there! Chase & I are having a party at MidSouthCon next year! (http://midsouthcon.org) It's an engagement party, we'll be hanging out all Saturday night with food & drinks and stuff, so if we know you or semi-know you or don't know you at all but you know us (...
I thought I'd mention my upcoming costuming schedule. October 20-21 is the Nashville Comic/Horror Fest. They call it Horror Fest still, and I don't know why - there really is nothing "horror" about it. It's basically a comic show at the fairgrounds, with a few local artists, and last year - Thong Girl! Saturday night once it closes down, we all go out to the Nashville Zoo and work ...
Rebel Legion table - 12-2 Friday morning (Endor Leia) Evening at Bree - Friday night (pink Belle) 501st pic (if I get up early enough)/Parade - (probably Boushh, if not, Wonder Woman) Marvel vs DC photoshoot - 2pm saturday (Wonder Woman) Slave Leia photoshoot - 3pm saturday The Dented Helmet table - 5-7 saturday night (slave leia again, I think) Buffy Prom (I think it's called "The Shindig" now, ...
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 ...
Travel for Dragoncon is finally completely arranged! We've had our room at the marriott for a while; but we rented our van last week. We paid a little extra to be able to pick it up the wednesday before and drop it off tuesday instead of monday. So we don't have the rush trying to check out monday and get back to return the van this year! Josh is not ...
Normally I'm off at a con this weekend! Nope, this year it's next weekend. The good news - Chase is getting off early friday, around 2. So we'll be pulling into Knoxville around 9. Not really enough time to do anything that night, unfortunately, but better than 2 or 3 in the morning. I have no idea when I'm going to wear what, now. I'm taking Hoth leia, Ewok Village Leia, funeral Padme, Wonder ...
We don't know what time we're getting there friday night - we're hoping chase can get a halfday off work so we can leave memphis by noon or one. If we do that, then i'll be able to have time to go to the con that night -- if not, we won't be able to leave memphis until like, 6 -- and that will put us in at around midnight or ...
