Enchantress and Hippolyta Updates

Here are the updates I did to Enchantress & Hippolyta. Enchantress: New crown - taller, slightly different shape, should hopefully be easier to put on than the old one. New wig - at least, the one that I was supposed to wear at ECCC and couldn't get it on with the crown. Works now. Updated Bodice - added some more detail, and a busk in the front like I originally ...

frustrated

I really have nothing to share today, other than I got Ashley's Ood jacket put together last night. Also that my mom found my little camera. I'd been wanting it because I'm going to have pockets in a few costumes so I can actually carry my own camera. Managed to dig up the charger, too... but it's not working. Chase is going to take it to a battery place and ...

A surprise costume!

Wig Progress: Ms Kim is drunk

I'm finally happy with this thing! Here it is with the main wig sewn onto the base, starting to cover the base... I wanted the curls on top to be much less structured than the base look was... a little wilder, so they're just lightly pinned in place, they'll move around a bit. All that's left is to curl the pieces I left down, and decorate...

K-9 Test Run!

Here he is!

Pink Rogue Suit UPdate

Hey! I found a progress pic of Pink Barf I never uploaded. Here's the suit cut out with the yellow pieces put together and pinned on. I think this was before I had to go back and remake the front piece though...
