All rightie it's that time of the year when we compare last year's to-do list and see what I got done. At the end of 2022, here's what I said I wanted to accomplish in 2023... 1. Finish Wedding Leia -- YES! I did finish wedding Leia! 2. Rebels Leia -- YES! I have been saying I was going to do this for a few years and I can finally mark it off now. 3. ...
I feel like I didn't get much done last week, but then I look back at where I was last week and realize... I did get a lot done. I finished up Bail. I didn't like the trim I bought for the neckline, so I made some out of leftover Vader pleather. Also added some elastic loops to the bottom right edge that the belt with thread through, to keep ...
Yes, we took Saturday off costume work and did a double feature. We started with breakfast at the Liquor Store: Then off to see Oppenheimer on the imax: Chase got a leg cramp right as they were starting the Trinity test. He had to awkwardly try to get out of the aisle, then was stuck standing in the hall for the rest of the movie because of the cramp. I ...
Did I mention before I'm doing an X-Files rewatch? I was going to watch all of Voyager after finishing TOS, but instead I got sucked into one of my OG fandoms. Fond memories of scouring the 90s internet for X-Files fanfics... Oh and did I mention I'm doing a Scully costume for Dragoncon? LOL Just a cheap quick thing. Using my Diane skirt, buying a blazer. I went ahead and ...
Hey look I actually titled a blog post what it's actually about. Yeah a couple of days late with this. Wanted to gather up all the pics first including the ones from Chase's camera. So Thursday I get off work and go to take a nap and as I lay down, I get an idea. And I have to go do the idea right then and there. I WAS going ...
omg hi I haven't posted this week. I was trying to wait til I had all the new photoshoot pics uploaded, and now that I've got them I'm like... augh I haven't done my wrap-up post for this year! So I'm doing this first instead of a regular post and I'll do a post about Christmas next. So at the end of 2020 here's what I wanted to accomplish in 2021: 1. Star ...
Ok I was hoping to have this post up last week, but Chase had a lot of trouble exporting the photos and I was only getting them in chunks. I think I've got all of them now, or at least, most of them. Might be a few more stragglers. Besides uploading pics, last week was absolutely crazy at work, and only going to get crazier... I spent most evenings laying ...
I started to title this "back to real life" but I realized doing something normal like going to Dragon Con is real life. Going back to the day-to-day of the last year is the fake life. So -- Dragon Con was actually pretty great. I had my reservations, as you may have noticed in the last post. But the low crowds, the people, the volunteers... everything was great. Of course ...
I've decided I'm officially considering this dragoncon #20. Actually I take that back. Going to wait and see how the weekend goes. if it sucks this is dragoncon #19. If it's great it's dragoncon #20 LOL. This year would've been #20 if they hadn't canceled last year -- but i DID participate in the virtual con last year so I feel like I could count it? If I wanted to? Just brain things. So ...
oh hello. Can you even believe it's dragoncon week? I can't. My brain isn't registering it. Still not done with everything. Still chipping away. Well Padme is done. I got the 3d printed buttons glued onto bases, painted and attached. Here they are before any of that. And I finally finished up the wig. Although once I finished it, I put it on real quick and realized the whole bun/...
