Forgive me the lack of update, as they have been a bit sparse in the past week, and will probably continue to be until the convention. I have a lot left to do and not much time to do it in. lol If you're dying to see my progress check Flickr, I tend to upload pictures long before I sit down and type it all out. But lets see V's bow and hair bow are done. I just need to sew her other sleeve on put the cuffs on it and do a bit of tweaking on the red below the bust-line and she's done. I finally figured out what...

Gimme a minute, I have to chatter, then I'll get to the good news. Ok, so I worked till close Sunday night. No biggie, we close an hour early so I get home at a decent time to go to work in the AM Monday. I'm not insane about the idea but its better then midnight like I did all Christmas. So here it is Sunday night, maybe five or six, and it starts snowing. Now it wasn't just snowing, oh no, it was doing that freezing...

Yes that was a Futurama reference. ^_^ But seriously great news. Talked to Pip last night as I was looking on Dragon*Con's website (hoping they had a forum because I wanted confirmation of the YA shoot) and mid convo kinda did a HOLY SHIT, because they are down to TWO, yes two, hotels with rooms open. So we talked it over and since I was willing to sacrafice Wizard World Chicago *sniff* We're going to Dragon*Con baby! Of course I still have to make all the arrangements, hotel, badges, etc. But still he said we...

Since it looks like its going to be another slow day here at the store I'm going to take the time now to update rather then when I get in so that way I can get going on a costume.
I spent most of my evening working on Sailor V's collar, took me a bit to draft it out, I used the guide found here as a start. Since Codename's collar is a little different I h ad to mod it slightly. I'll post pictures once I get it done, I have it cut out and sewn together, I just need to finish getting the red trim on it. I have one side done but...

Yet again more snow. Joy. Exactly do I have to slaughter to get rid of this stuff? I’m tired of it ten times over. It makes getting to work a pain, it makes getting to the gym even more of a pain, and it’s messy. Don’t get me wrong, it’s pretty but I can do without it. I vote we just skip to spring. Anyone else with me?
But on to better things. I’ve been working diligently on the costumes. V and Tuxedo’s masks are nearly finished. They need...

Alright just a quick post tonight, if I have time I'll post more in the morning. I've gotten a lot done last night and today. The nerf gun I'm using for a Harkonnen for Seras is half painted (had to wait for it to dry so I can flip it over and do the other side), and Sailor V and Tuxedo Mask both have painted masks. I figured I'd take them over to Pip's this weekend so we could mark out where I need to cut them, and being the right...

I want to have Seras basically done by the end of the week... I may get there. I'm off all day Thursday so hopefully I can buckle down and get her finished. But I did work on her quite a bit tonight. I ordered my contacts for her earlier today. They should be arriving in a couple of weeks. But lets see, I had the liner of the outfit put together from the last time I worked on her, tonight I got all the darts in it, and...

Just thought I'd share a sketch I did the other night at work, its of a concept for the Vampire Knight Ball at KawaKon. I'll be in my Codename Sailor V costume that day (and as its a formal Tuxedo Mask will be in a tuxedo) so I felt a little akward about weaing a miniskirt to the formal. Not so much a problem with the mini because I will need the freedom of movement to dance the tango, but just that I'd feel underdressed. So I came...
