I really should write in pencil

My planner has scratch marks all over the damn place. >_<

I had to completely reschedule my costume line up for the next few months due to the fact I couldn't get Amelia and Telma done for Roundcon next weekend. I'll still have my Klingon and 50's Hostess completed so that's something. However now instead of just needing to make one costume for Nashicon I need to make 2 and repair a third.

I kick myself for not being more productive.

If I'm doing a group with you please hit the cut and make sure I have you listed!!

Roundcon:
Klingon
50's Hostess

Nashicon:
Lily - Fatal Fury
Myu Sailor Jupiter
Telma - Zelda

Hoshicon (still undecided):
Not sure (it's a one day con I have to travel to, so there's not much room to change)
If I go I might sign up for the costume contest since I haven't been able to compete in several years. Got to stay fresh! :)

Animazement:
Myu Sailor Jupiter
Telma
Lily
Amelia? (only if Kim does Lina)

ConCarolinas:
No-Ghost - Ghostbusters
Fallout Wastelander

Dragoncon:
Lolita Mario
Myu Jupiter
No-Ghost
Fallout
Amelia
Telma

Of the 9 listed only 3 are even close to being done. On top of that I have 2 costumes to make for Owen and another for a friend. O_O Kill me. My only saving grace is that I have about a month between each con. If I really put my mind to it I should be able to prevent Pre-Con Panic that hits most costumers.

Well, I'm definitely taking Lina to AZ and to DragonCon. I might bring out Suki for Dragoncon, since I didn't last year.

Sorry to hear Telma won't be ready by RoundCon. Sounds like you're feeling better though, so that's good!

I don't know if I'll bring out Midna again for AZ, it would make it four years in a row for Midna. Course, I do have the new bodysuit.. Jason's helping me figure out something to make her arms glow...

How much use can one get out of a costume, anyway?

I only wore Midna for a few hours (like, 2) at last DragonCon, so I might plan on bringing her again anyway, especially since I haven't been able to hook up with you yet in a zelda shoot.

I generally wear the hell out of a costume for 1-2 years (depending on popularity/cost to me), and then retire it.

I'm feeling MUCH better, although my voice is still really rough and the cough won't go away. Thankfully I still have another weekend to rest before the con.

I'm hoping to have Owen in Link by AZ, but most likely it'll be D*C.

My 'main' costume for AZ will def. be Lina. Probably for DragonCon as well, unless something else gets my attention. I wanted to do my own Zelda TP style, but the likelihood of getting money for the materials and armor is.. well, unlikely. I also kinda wanted to crossplay a Ganon. It'd be neat to do that for DC. Another option is that I still have Zants tunic that I made for Jason - I could resize it for myself and re-make the helmet for AZ.

I'm sort of half seriously considering doing a My Little Pony one as well, am I crazy?? :D I found my box of old ponies the other day, and My brain started going, 'ooh.. Galaxy.. I could totally hand dye a 4-tone wig from white and style it all wavy.' well, two wigs, one for the tail too.

If you do Ganon be prepared for dry humping. ;P I think you'd look amazing as TP Zelda. I think it's my favorite version of her.

You're not crazy, because if you were we'd allll be crazy. I still have occasional thoughts of doing Grumpy Bear. :)

Also, I'm kind of addicted to Midna. I had bad dreams before Dragoncon that I got there and left all my costumes and face paint. Midna first year at AZ sucked so much, I feel like I"m still making up for it. Last year at Dcon I had a new cloak and skirt at least. Midna is on wig number three and everything else has been replaced at least once...

I think you did a great job! It was really hard not to glomp on you. lol!

Minda is rarely done well. You stick out in all the right ways. :)

That's a LOT of costumes.

[morganskye.livejournal.com]

I know. Some are easy (No-Ghost is a white sheet and a giant cutout), but most will require specialized patterns and accessories. Not to mention shoes, wigs, props.
