I was really looking forward to this past weekend; the con looked fun, I was excited to take Kevin, to spend the weekend with my grandparents, and best of all the weather was going to turn out great - it got up to nearly 70 degrees. Well I forgot what comes along with a change in the weather like that; I had sinus and migraine issues all weekend. :( But the con ...
Maybe the morning after Star Wars isn't the best time to do this. I went to bed hours after I normally do and still had to get up at 6:30 for work today so I am beyond fuzzy. BUT I realized I hadn't done this yet and got all excited to type up the post, so here we go, fuzzy headed or not. 1. Pink Dragon I made a giant, wear-able pink ...
I got Rogue as Ms Marvel and Leia comic book suit uploaded last night: The Rogue as Ms Marvel shots aren't great, we shot those really fast because I didn't want the glue for the mask to set and mess up my make-up. But at least I got them. Really happy with the Leia shots though! Tonight I'm hoping to get Aelsa photos uploaded.
Some more of the Leia pictures... There were so many great Star Wars costumes there this year... but it's been so long since I wore a Star Wars costume at a con that even while I was dressed as Leia I'd just walk right past them without thinking about it. Then later I'd be like.... I was dressed as Leia! I walked right by the awesome whatever! I should have ...
I've finished my comicbook suit Leia costume and have added it to my portfolio!
In (sort-of) order of wearing! 1. Peggy Carter I did some updates to Peggy - I took it up a bit through the waist and removed the shoulder pads, and fixed up the wig. It made a HUGE difference! The jacket fit much better and the wig looked way better, too. I just wish I could have had time to take up the sleeves - they are still huge - but ...
The things you find yourself doing during the Dragon Con panic. I'd been waiting on this package for a week... shipping had taken 3 days longer than I expected so I was already frustrated. I knew it was scheduled to be delivered Saturday so I checked the mailbox multiple times and nothing. It was well past the time our mail usually comes so I checked the tracking again and... it said ...
What was my last update? I can't even remember. I worked like crazy all weekend. I got both Captain Marvel and Leia 95% finished. The only thing I need to do on Captain Marvel is finish my brooch (I've got the pieces made, just need to glue them together and paint them) and the gloves. after making the gloves for Leia I just was NOT feeling having to make another pair, ...
It's been a few days since I posted! I've been busy. First off, I'm moving all of my photos from flickr to smugmug. Not deleting my flickr account just yet, since that would break ALL of the pictures on my blog ... but I'm getting everything moved over and set up so I can then start working on updating everything on the website (ugh). It's going to take a while but ...
