I dyed my Lina gloves!!! They turned out good, I'm so happy XD It's so easy! Now I'm ready for Ash's Yuna sleeves! Dad and I went and got chicken wire and wallpaper paste and a bucket for making paper mache paste. I'm worried about doing this, I've got so little experience. Today got my Urd pattern cut out and sewed most of it. Still got to put a zipper ...
I just bought my Lina wig. whew. It's now the most expensive wig I own. I wanted something that would look more natural than just a regular straight style wig. I bought it from the same people I got my She-Ra wig from. It's layered and really nice looking. It's a little darker than I really wanted, but... it's just so pretty! I'm trying to shoot for more realistic colours ...
Today... Ash and I ran around all day. First we went to Salvation Army to look for shoes for my Urd costume, shoes for Ash's Yuna costume, and a skirt for her Yuna. I didn't find any shoes. Ash found some but they were too small. We actually found a *great* Yuna skirt - but it was too small too :( I told Ash she should just go back and get ...
Went to the fabric store today!! I got black fabric for Lina's cape, and purple to line it with. Also got off-white fabric for the white bits of her costume. Got a *perfect* pattern for Urd. It's great. And black fabric, sort of suede like for the black pieces of her costume. And yellow ribbon for the yellow bits. I looked at the fur prints there and didn't see any ...
Dude!!! I'm totally doing Lum for MTAC!! I've always wanted to do a Lum costume... but I didn't want to wear it to a big con so I always figured if I ever actually made it it would just be for fun. But then I thought, why not wear it to MTAC, it's not such a huge crowd. I just lost $40. I got a wig for my Urd costume off ...
Well guys, Animazement was pretty fun. I'll have my report and pictures up this weekend. I'm really pleased with how my pics came out, this time. I was also very pleased with my costumes! I'll update our Xiaoyu pages, my lulu page, my misato page, and we got new pics of Ash's Meryl and Ranma costumes. For Otakon, Ash and I have decided to try and make a Yuna costume ...
Goooosh I can't wait for Otakon! I'm looking forward to Animazement, too, of course, but Otakon...! My aunt, my grandparents, Kristie, Ash and me are all going, it's almost like a family vacation except with anime and costumes!! ooo I'm so excited! I've decided to hold off on Misato until Animazement, because I think we're only going to do MidSouthCon for one day. I'm still going to go ahead and ...
Hmm... I'm gonna go out into the woods and take some new pictures of my elf costume this afternoon. Ash and I talked for a long time about our costumes at the basketball game saturday night. I can't find the stupid piece of paper where I wrote it all down, but Ash is looking at Meryl, pink outfit Ling Xiaoyu, and Ritsuko from Eva. She's still thinking about Rikku... I'm ...
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) ...
happy new year! Hmmm... so far... MidSouthCon: She-Ra and Misato Animazement: Lulu, Xianhua, and Faye Otakon: Urd That's all I've got. I want at least one more costume for Otakon. I'd like to have 3 new ones for Otakon, but if I only have time for 2, that's cool. I'm going to take Utena with me Otakon, and Ruby Moon to Animazement if I get the minor mistakes fixed. I was considering ...
