1. Giselle I was really pleased with the updates to Giselle. An hour's worth of work turned it from a costume I really didn't care about to something I was really happy with. I actually wish I'd tossed it on on Monday at the con as well. I might wear it sometime at Halloween if it's not too cold out. 2. Black Canary This costume was SO freaking comfortable! I really fell ...
Sunday we slept in, then I put on Poison Ivy (I wanted to rewear Zatanna, but my feet said "NO!") and Chase and I went and had a little lunch. Then Chase remembered he was supposed to go to the clonetroopers.net lunch LOL. So he went to that, and I met up with Ash and we went shopping for a while. Didn't take any pics that morning (lazy!). Then ...
Ok I'm going to stop talking so much about my costumes and what I want to change, since I'll want to make a separate post about that later. But anyway - on to Saturday pics! Thank god for Ash! She came over to help us finish getting ready that morning - I was getting Starfire on for the very first time, and Chase was putting his clone on. There were ...
Hey guys... sorry I haven't posted in a few days!! Dragoncon was a blast, as always. I managed to come home with a nasty head cold so I've been kinda in-and-out of it since then. I finished uploading our photos today, though - had over 1000, almost filled up the memory card, LOL. I think I'll break up my posts by days... there's a lot of stuff to go through. Our ...
Sorry I haven't posted much - we've been working pretty much non-stop, trying to finish everything. On friday we found out the guy was not going to finish my wonder woman stuff, either, so we had to swing into action and a figure out a half-decent way to do it outselves. It came out pretty well. The situation just sucks - if we hadn't had to spend the better part ...
Three days left to work! Starfire: Paint collar Attach spheres to collar Put straps on back of gauntlets Attach brooch to suit Sew boots to bodysuit Add spheres to top of boots Here's a sneak peek of it... put everything on to make sure it was going ok. Wonder Woman: Finish painting the tiara (needs another coat) attach star to tiara replace ribbons on tiara (change to black, white ones ...
So the situation I talked about last time has at least come to some kind of resolution. The guy said yesterday that he was pulling my pieces that night, and that he would send it out today. I sent him a fedex slip for sat. delivery, so if it doesn't show up tomorrow that's our clue to start working on my backup. Chase's isn't going to be done at all. ...
I am feeling ok about getting everything done in time. The only thing I'm not feeling ok about are the pieces of my Wonder Woman (my chestpiece and belt to be exact) and Chase's Green Arrow that a friend of Chase's was making for us - he still hasn't sent them. It's going to SUCK if they don't come in time and I don't get wear WW after doing all ...
Making progress, feeling better about things. I got my new Starfire boots and made the new covers for them and finished them up last night. Chase airbrushed my bodysuit and I made my armband. There's not a lot left to do on Starfire - Chase is finishing up my collar, and painting that and the gauntlets... I just need to sew up the front of the bodysuit and attach the ...
I haven't posted in a few days, let me try to get caught up with where I'm at on stuff. Starfire - Chase got the chestpiece cut down, it looks so much better. Today we'll be airbrushing the suit, and once that's done I can finish hemming it. My new boots should be arriving tomorrow, and once they come I'll whip up new boot covers (won't be hard, I can ...
