Free Comic Book Day 2006 Pics!
We trooped Free Comic Book Day in Nashville this past weekend. Here’s a few pics. I wore regular Leia for most of it, which I have no pics of… then I changed into Slave Leia for a bit and got pics with the aliens. Then we went to eat.

Hey whoa, for anyone who reads my blog and is subscribed to Star Wars hyperspace (which is probably like 1 person – ASH!) there’s a new article up about Slave Leia, and includes a couple of pictures from Dragoncon, and I’m in them. Pretty darn cool.

when there were no slave leias
No Slave Leias!! For the Ohio exhibit in June, they’ve requested no Slave Leias because there will be kids there. What! Ok, I can understand, I’m just a little disappointed, because that’s one more spot out that I might have gotten.

2005 Year in Review!
I ran across my original 2005 costume list on the Jedi Council boards, did I get it all done? I said I’d do: -Padme ep 1 Parade gown Done! Besides the Princesses, this was my biggest project of the year, and the one I worked on longest. I’m still quite proud of it -Qui-Gon Jinn for my father Done! It…

Hallo from SDCC 2005! A few pics
Moooore San Diego updates!! There is still a TON of stuff (action figures, statues, displays, etc) I need to get pictures of – I’ll probably get most of them Saturday when I’m in Starfire, easier to move around in 🙂 This morning was the Rebel Legion breakfast/group photoshoot – pics from earlier today and last night are up now: Thursday…

On my way
I shipped my boxes out yesterday – five all together!! Ugh, I don’t want to think about the cost. One was the big, big one that fits my Amidala Parade parasol – I also fit the cloak in there, as well as Ozma, for extra padding for the parasol. Two of them were 16x16s with most of my other stuff…

Revenge of the Sith Event Pics! And Plans
Jupiter isn’t going to be ready for A-Kon. Why? Because it’s about two weeks til A-Kon and I haven’t bought a single thing for it. Which wouldn’t be a giant problem except I got so much left to do on Yuuko, there’s no time to worry with Jupiter. 🙁 Oh well – I’ll do it for MTAC next year! Speaking…
