Various blog posts about my upcoming convention and costume schedules. I don't use this tag often for some reason.

Momocon thoughts
I still can’t completely decide what to take to Momocon. So thinking “outloud” here. I’m definitely taking Meg, since it’s new and I should have it done in the next couple of weeks. I don’t think I’ll have time to also finish Johanna. It’s was planned for Dragoncon anyhow so no big deal. I was planning on taking Belle –…

Stuff I’m thinking about wearing to MidSouthCon
We’re only going up on Saturday so I’m only wearing one (maybe 2, if it’s easy to change in the car) costume… I’m thinking about: 1. Donna Noble – because I’m lazy and this is the easiest costume to wear. 2. Valkyrie – might be cold. 3. Emma Frost – might be cold. 4. Marie Antoinette – i want to…

YES
I gave my two weeks notice yesterday. Starting my new job Oct 15. Not going to say much more about it right now. Just I’m super super excited. It’s a little paycut and I won’t have as much PTO (I’ve been at my old job for 11 years. I had a butt-ton of PTO) so it’s a completely new start,…

GMX ideas
I know GMX is almost two months away, but I’m still on a high from Dragoncon and thinking about what to take. So so far I’m thinking.. Romana I Donna Runaway Bride Glimmer Trillian Belle Batgirl and maaaaybe Fionna because I was thinking of making a Finn costume for Kevin, but I’m probably going to remake his Link tunic instead.…

All right! We leave for DragonCon in a week, so here’s my final costume list, and a semi-schedule. (Sorry, the image that was originally here was lost in a server move. I replaced it with an older one that doesn’t quite match up but still kinda works.) Wednesday night: Batgirl – private photoshoot Thursday: Early evening – Romana I for…

Dragoncon Thinking
Now that C2E2 is over I can start planning Dragoncon stuff. I’m only planning on making 4 new costumes for myself; maybe only 3. I’ve got a work schedule worked out, and if I finish the 3 first ones by August, then I’ll go ahead and tackle the 4th (the 4th will be easy to make; it’s just budgeting factors.)…

C2E2 2013!

What should I take to GMX?
I really have no idea what to take with me to GMX. I’m definitely taking Wasp, because I’m finishing the wings, and Marie Antoinette TARDIS to go with my cousin’s 11th Doctor costume. Thinking about taking Anne Boleyn too. Otherwise, I’m thinking about: Time Lord Donna Noble Batgirl Emma Frost Jane (Tarzan) beyond that nothing is really saying “WEAR ME!”…

Upcoming Costume stuff
Hoping to do a photoshoot this weekend (if not this weekend then soon). Thinking of shooting pink Rogue, DCNU Wonder Woman, and Alyss. Also thinking about what to take to GMX. Definitely taking Belle (hopefully with updated wig), Wasp (hopefully with wings), maybe Batgirl (depends on the gauntlet situation), maybe Marie Antoinette TARDIS (I want to wear it again)… I…

MidSouthCon Costume Thoughts
Last night – or rather, early this morning – Indy woke us up barking at 4AM. She never does that, and it freaked me out. It wasn’t her “Hey! Stranger!” bark, it was her “bored” bark, which was weird. All I can think is that she was dreaming. Ok, so I’m thinking about what to take to MidSouthCon with me.…

MidSouthCon 2011 Plans

April projects: Lady Blackhawk: all sewing. Donna: piece-mealed, will probably make the jacket. (I’m hoping to actually start on these in March and move everything up a bit.) May projects: Marie Antoinette: just starting on…

So far I’ve got – (and yes I’m being secretive until I’ve decided for sure) Rogue #1 Rogue #2 Wonder Woman-based character Disney character…

GMX 2010 Plans, Wonder Woman art
Here’s the WW I did for our team’s Race for the Cure shirts. (EDIT: Unfortunately this picture appears to have been lost in my move from flickr to smugmug. Sorry ! 🙁 ) The shirt version is black and white, with a pink bodice, and pink ribbons on her gauntlets. So I finally packed for GMX – I got Jane,…

Thinking about costumes for next year..
Dragoncon kinda signals the end of the “season” for me – I generally start thinking about next year around this time of the year. So here’s my thoughts for next year… Halloween/GMX: Not making anything new for GMX – but I’m going to make Briar Rose for Halloween. I need to finish off my new Aurora wig I bought last…
