Tilt Shift video of the Dragoncon 2010 parade

I just deleted my livejournal. Anyway - post-dragoncon... I've updated my site with all the new stuff. Here's my flickr gallery - I still have more to add once Chase sends them to me. And here's our video of the parade. It's a time lapse tilt shift video, I think it's pretty neat. In other news, working on Briar Rose for Halloween. :)

the Supergirl wig curse

I feel like I was cursed when it came to wigs this summer - and I couldn't really talk about it since I was keeping Supergirl under wraps. I searched for a long time for the 2 wigs I needed for Gaga and the wig for Supergirl. The yellow wig was weirdly enough the easiest. I found a blonde wig I thought was perfect for Gaga, right part, right shade, right ...

More Dragoncon 2010 pics

More Supergirl pics: Magik: Updated Starfire, with DJSpider's Blackfire: Donna Troy: And awesome Wonder Woman group shot: And me and George Perez :) I had to tell him I kinda stalked him at cons back when I did my Cartoon Network Starfire and could NEVER find him! So it was awesome to finally get a pic with him in this.

A few Dragoncon 2010 pics!

Sorry I haven't posted lately. Been busy doing nothing! Except uploading pics, and cleaning the house, etc. Indy had another ear hematoma, like she did last year. Except in the other ear this time. Took her to the vet saturday and he drained it and she's on steriods now. Makes me sad because now both ears are going to be all crumpled up. I always loved to rub her ears, ...

Dcon 2010 costume wrap up

I had a lot of fun at all the photoshoots this year, they were awesome, well organized and fun. However next year I'm not committing myself to ANY photoshoots. I spent all day sunday between the Teen Titans and DC shoots. From 9AM when I got up to when I left DC a little after 4PM. Saturday was the parade/SOSI shoot/Marvel, so that was from 8AM to after 5. ...

Dragoncon 2010 Recap (sorta)

We're home! I tried to post a couple of times from the con but just didn't have enough down time. So here's a recap. This isn't going to be that interesting - we didn't really "do" much outside of changing costumes LOL. Wednesday: Ash and I went and picked up the van, Chase got home, we loaded it up and hit the road. Got to Nashville and went to Five ...

almost there…

Last night, I dreamt about arriving at dragoncon. It was basically just us moving the van and parking the van and trying to figure out if we could check into the hotel or not. That totally stems from us not having any kind of plan for tomorrow. Them moving pre-reg pick-up up to 10 really threw us off. We'll probably be getting in around noon - but were fairly certain we ...

Starfire & Gaga updates

So last night I finished installing the bra in the front of Starfire. I'm really nervous about wearing it. I'm going to be taped to high-heaven, but it's been a long time I've worn something like this and I'm worried. I went ahead and sewed the boots back onto the bodysuit, too - I just need to fix the brooch (a bunch of the beads fell out, chase painted some ...
