365 Project – Padme Cut Senate + More Redbirds Pics
today’s princess is… Padme. Shocker, I know. I got Chase’s pics from the Redbirds game, and I also nicked a couple that the Redbirds team sent to us. Here’s my fav from the Redbirds: And Chase’s… We just look like we’re having a nice conversation LOL Vader throwing the opening pitch, and me walking out onto the field…. I just…

eyelashes are not bugs
today we have Padme… So the truth is I wear fake eyelashes with most of my costumes. This is for two reasons: the first, I have thin, fine eyelashes that, while they’re actually decently long, they just don’t look like much even with mascara. Everyday wear, mascara is fine, but not for costuming/getting your pic taken, etc. And secondly, I…

Amidala Senate art
I only have one more episode 1 outfit to go 🙂 So I’ve changed up my Dragoncon costume plans a bit. I need to update the in-progress page because of it. I’ve dropped two costumes and added one definite, one maybe. The two I dropped are Ame-Comi Black Canary and Batgirl. Batgirl I dropped because #1, the expense – if…

Redbirds Troop pics
Last night we did Star Wars night at the Memphis Redbirds’ baseball game. It was a lot of fun – more than I expected! We took pics with guests and Darth Vader threw out the opening pitch. We set up right in the middle of the opening area of the park – we posed for about an hour before heading…

The Costume Closet is Finished
I know folks are probably tired of hearing about my stupid closet, but it’s finally finished! So I’m going to go over it once more 🙂 So a question I get asked a lot is “Where do you keep all of your costumes?” When I lived with my parents, the question was pretty easy to answer – we had converted…

Star Wars in Concert
It was awesome! When we got to the forum we hadn’t been told where to go, so we spent a while walking back and forth trying to just get in! We got in, I put on Leia (already had my hair up), and helped Ash into her X-Wing pilot and Chase into his Vader. We had an hour to stay…

MTAC 2010 Pics
I updated my costume site with Julia. Can’t update the blog on the front page yet, since I still haven’t decided what to do about it and blogger discontinued ftp publishing saturday. MTAC was. I mostly followed Chase around while he shot stuff, so we didn’t really do a lot. I wore Julia twice, Jane most of the day saturday.…

Weekend Update… and Jane photos
Sorry I haven’t been posting all weekend! It was a busy weekend! Friday night we were going to go to a movie, but while we were wasting a few minutes at Hastings (where I broke down and bought comics. I try to just flip through them in the store instead of buying… but they’ve started selling old issues, so I…

Leia Ewok art
Weird day. My computer went down with a virus this morning, so I left it home running antivirus stuff… Chase got home and fixed it for me, everything seems to be good now. But it’s always weird not to have my computer at work, plus Kevin had today off so it was really quiet in the office. I worked a…

Happy Easter!
I forgot my sketch post yesterday 🙁 I spent most of yesterday sewing. I finally got the skirt hemmed. It’s not perfect but it’ll do. Now I’m having zipper issues, I’ll have to wait and tackle that again this afternoon. But I got my lace sewn onto the edge, and one spat made, and I made the back swoop-y piece,…

Tonight was SO fun! We had a good turn out 🙂 We spent about a half hour out in the front lobby taking pics with people as they came in. After that we hung out in our locker room during the first half, watched the game on the tv in there (they brought us tickets if we wanted to go…
