Dressform Pics
Here’s everything so far. I’m only missing 3 actually so maybe I should have waited, but our server is down at work and I’m bored. Belldandy and Urd from 2003 and 2002, respectively. These two costumes have really stood the test of time. I knew Belldandy was in good shape since I wore her to Momocon earlier this year, but…

when we took some arwen pics
Saw Starsky and Hutch yesterday. It was cute. Took pics of my Arwen wedding dress yesterday! I posted a bigger set over at my cosplay journal. I need to be working on my cousin’s Link costume. I started on my Faust work yesterday… did some sketches for it. Unfortunately I have no scanner at the moment, so… yeah.

Katsucon 2004 pics!
I’m dead tired. I don’t know how I made it through the weekend. I fell asleep in the room 3 times by mistake. But it was fun! I was part of a great AMG group for the masq, and I met lots of cool people and it was great seeing friends from other cons again. Not enough really happened to…

Arwen pics!
I put Arwen on again to take some shots of it, since I didn’t get any at the premiere š I did have a fabulous time wearing it, but we got there so late that there was no time to take pics or show it off… oh well.

when i didn’t watch SNL
For some reason, I really don’t like to watch actors or actresses from movies I like doing something like SNL or on some ET report or anything. I can’t explain it. I don’t even like to watch Behind the Scenes stuff, or interviews. It’s weird. Like I didn’t want to watch Elijah Wood on SNL so I skipped. I don’t…

when our ROTK plans changed again
Well, my plans have changed for ROTK! Our entire ROTK night has been flipped upside down, fixed, flipped again and barely patched together again. First, when it was announced Memphis was getting the Trilogy Tuesday, we called the theater that day to ask when tickets would go on sale. The person on the phone told us wrong (that they wouldn’t…

when i hated biters
Sometimes I think the people on cosplaylab just randomly chose a time on the “Amount of time spent on this costume” section. 40-60 hours on super simple costume? Wow OK! And while I’m ranting, this person on a board I occasionally post at started posting in this one thread, linking to the artwork of the arwen wedding dress I’m making…

some random notes: -Mom cleaned my Belldandy dress and managed to get all the nasty mud stains off the back of the white skirt (from when it rained at dragoncon). She also cleaned my plugsuit and got those stains off of it, too. -Almost finished with my quidditch cloak. the sweater lady FINALLY called and said she’d have my sweater…

when i tried to decide on a lotr costume
I don’t think I’m going to do Arwen’s Blood Red Dress for the ROTK opening anymore; it’s just… I dunno. Iwant to do something else. Which one of these do you guys like better? I would rather not do Eowyn, because I don’t want to wear a wig at the theater, but I like her dresses a lot so I’m…
