Jane progress
I do have a finished piece for tomorrow… I almost finished it tonight but ran out of time. I need to draw a few simpler things – these Amidala ones take too long! Anyway today’s sketch… Poison Ivy It doesn’t come across in the scan… but there was a delicate-ness to this sketch that I really liked. I stopped working…

MidSouthCon 2010 found pics!
Went out with the girls last night – got home around 2am-ish. But even before that I felt a migraine coming on. I did everything I could to divert again but no luck, around 4am it kicked into high gear. Blah… and here I’d gone nearly 5 weeks without one. today’s sketch is Rogue. I don’t know when I did…

More Jane progress, kitchen updates
I got a lot of sewing done last night, enough to make me feel like I accomplished something. I got Jane’s top done, except for the little belt piece. Got the zipper put back in, the collar finished, and the sleeves finished. I’ve got to make the separate little piece for the collar now, and like I said, put the…

I got my Jane pith helmet!
I got my pith helmet yesterday π It’s a little too big, I mean it fits my head fine but the silhouette is a little big, but it’ll have to do for now. I’m only 3 weeks out! Gotta get it finished! I added this to my costume progress page.

MidSouthCon 2010 pics
Our pics are here. There’s not a lot – I spent most of my time at the con either in the dealer’s room or in panels π I got my helmet for my Jane costume today, too. It’s a little too big, but it’ll do for now.

Why I don’t go to Comic Con
today is Mulan dressed up as Megara. This one is not my fav, it was hard to get the colours of Mulan’s main dress to work for Meg’s dress. So I’ve watched friends & folks struggle with hotel rooms for San Diego Comic Con this past couple of days. WOW. I’m so glad I wasn’t trying to get a room…

Random Leia pic & Insanity
I finally found one pic of Hoth Leia from Friday night at MidSouthCon, from laspector: Goodness my hair was everywhere. But anyway, today was day 4 of insanity. Cardio Recovery. The stretches were hard and I have trouble with balancing but the recovery is so much easier. Can’t wait til tomorrow! π

MidSouthCon 2010 pics!
As I said there weren’t very many – but what Chase did take is here. I’m hoping to find a few pics of me as Hoth Leia from friday night to add to that set. Here’s a few of interest… A neat flying pirate ship, and me as Snow White… One of the panels. And a bunch of Wonder Woman…

Wonder Woman updates
I didn’t have any artwork to post yesterday, as I warned earlier. I should hopefully have something to post tonight, but with MidSouthCon going on I didn’t have time to get caught up. In the meantime, here’s a Wonder Woman π Ok, first off – it was COLD. After a week of weather in the sunny 60s, it was grey,…

MidSouthCon
I don’t have pics from Chase yet. He didn’t take a lot but I’ll post what I have on flickr later. For now all I have is this: Yesterday we both got off work a few minutes early, came home, and got into Hoth Leia. We headed to the con and got our badges, then ran back out and had…

MidSouthCon 2010 Schedule!
MidSouthCon starts tomorrow. It really snuck up on me and I’m not in a convention-frame of mind. I think it’s because it’s about 2 weeks earlier than usual this year! Anyway, here’s my schedule. Friday β 11:00 PM β Donning The Tights I had a panel friday at 5, but our regional manager is in town and I just can’t…

digging up costume pieces
I made a new header. It’ll do for now. Anyway, tonight I spent digging out costume pieces. Half of my costume stuff is still at my parent’s house. So trying to figure out what I have to wear is difficult. I do have all of Wonder Woman, so long as Chase finishes my chestpiece and belt, and found everything for…

Jane updates, etc
Just saw a boom mic go across the top of a screen in an old Friends episode. But that’s not what this post about, I just saw it so I typed it LOL Are dogs like people, when it comes to remembering things that made you sick once? What I mean by that relates to this story: When I was…

Snow White art, Jane updates
I know it’s been done before, but I decided to draw each girl wearing another princesses’ main dress. I ended up doing two versions, one with the dress in the “normal” colour (ie, Belle’s dress on Aurora was yellow) but then did a second version that I thought was a little more fun (ie, Belle’s dress on Aurora was blue…

I found it!!
I found the costume that’s been missing from my Dragoncon line up!! It’s something I wanted to make like 2 years ago, but forgot all about until tonight. I’m super excited about it, it brings my costume list a sort of balance I think it needed. So I’m dropping Anne Boleyn in favour of this costume. And if I have…

Giselle art, and MidSouthcon schedules
today’s princess is Giselle. I skipped this dress initially because I didn’t care for it in the movie, but for completeness’ sake, here it is. I tried all the pieces of my new costumes on last night (all i’ve gotten done, anyway), and was pleased. I intend to sew like crazy this weekend and have the bulk of it done…

Ms Marvel progress!
We were able to get Thursday night added to our Marriott reservation for Dragoncon!!! We had to pay regular rate for that night, but worth it to not deal with moving our stuff from our friend’s hyatt room during the day friday! I’m so relieved! π We are thinking of doing something different this year – driving to Nashville wednesday…

Dragoncon 2010 plans
I’m obsessing over our Dragoncon room situation at the moment (it appears we have 2 reservations at the Marriott Marquis. Neither of them have Thursday which is a pain in the ass, they’re both Fri-Mon… and 1 reservation for another Marriott in downtown. THANKS crappy housing system. We’re going to have to move from our friend’s room in the Hyatt…

Starting out on Jane, Tiana art
I have been busy! Yesterday was crazy at work due to several mixups, then I got home to find Indy had thrown up everywhere. I spent an hour cleaning all that up. The only thing that really works is Oxi-clean, which has bleach in it, so while it cleans the puke up really well, it leaves the spot on the…
