HIM's returning to the white creepers as apposed to the brogues for Ronald because it means HIM doesn't have to take extra shoes to Hyper Japan.

buh?

In other news: I ordered my bus tickets to get to D.C. next month for Otakon, and got my confirmation info printed out; now all I have to worry about is how much my part of the hotel room is going to cost me. Hopefully not too much. I'll have to find out soonish.

Also edited some stuff because AMA's not in Chesapeake anymore, and Otakon's not in Baltimore, either.

HIM has a pair of white brougues which are stupidly hard to find shoes.

I know what creepers are.
I know someone who has a pair of Lisa Frank creepers. :D

Why do you need the creepers, HIM? Is it for a costume?

I hope you have fun, HIM!

For a second, I thought HIM was going to cosplay Ronald McDonald for some strange reason.

I have always loved Hela, but the second I saw that she was going to be in the next Thor movie I thought, "OMFGOSH! She's sooo beautiful!" Then I thought, "I CAN'T make that costume! D.:" Then I googled other Hela cosplays and saw that really the only challenge was the headpiece and I thought, "YOU KNOW WHAT?! FUCK IT, I'M GOING TO BE HELA!!"

And as of right now, I am just going to get the patterns together based on this picture. And I will use an already-made black unitard, and to make the illusion of "armor" covering the suit, I will use a hot glue gun with a metallic looking fabric. As the more I studied her costume, the more I realize it's basically just a black unitard with a few specks of green in it...



The most daughting part will be her headdress, but I have been intimidated by helms before and I made them with no problem, so I am pretty confident that once I know what I am doing for that part that I will be able to make her "antlers" look good.

Her cloak will be easy, as I've sewn at least six or seven cloaks before, so I am not worried about that.

Overall I think it will be a fun project and I look forward to getting the ball rolling! (Hopefully soon!) I can post pictures here of my progress if you guys want? :D

ave decided to make the antlers oiut of foam (styrofoam) blocks and would connect them to the helm with wire then sand the pieces down and spray them with black ,metallic spray paint
then to connect to my head I would leave a space open to put some straps of thick fabric wich i Wpuld then put clips to clip the helm to my head through

I am going to start purchasing materials for this costume then. Then, I'll begin working on it this weekend.

I wouldn't suggest it.

I was feeling lazy and didn't want to sew/embroider tabards. It ended up being more of a hassle. >.<

I could probably imagine.

FINALLY, I started packing for Otakon today, and I got the last of the food(mostly snacks) I needed to purchase before the trip. Seven days until Day Zero...

Ya I don't mind the idea of going alone, but part of me knows if I don't have my huge mountain man with me I'll be getting unwanted attention. I can't afford to pay for both of us. So I'll avoid them for now. Hopefully in six months he'll have something.

I have so many ideas I want to work on but If I'm supporting both of us I really can't.

Good news! His friends found him a temp under the table paid position! $20 an hour for security at a Rodeo...Which is so not our jam We're more into alternate and comic scenes BUT money is money. 34 hours worth over the weekend. :D So that will take care of his bills for a month in one weekend. YAY! So we'll be ok for 7 months. XD
