I'm delighted to find that you have a LiveJournal, since I didn't get to tell you in person how much I liked your costume. :-)

Do you have information anywhere about how you did the light-up edges? Very impressive.

taerin September 28 2005, 23:36:42 UTC

Ok, I went searching and discovered all your posts on the topic. Looking through them now... :-)

It's wonderful stuff. Flexible, bright, and easy to power. I love it. I want to make all my costumes glow in the dark now. Even the historical ones. Joan of Arc!

Joan of Arclights?

Now you've given me an idea for a terrible costume pun...this goes right along with the Freudian slip and the Great Vowel Shift.

You should definitely make terrible costume puns. I like the idea.

The idea of you in the Freudian slip doesn't hurt a bit, either.

Joy, do NOT ignite the stage for that one, no matter HOW spiffy (and historically correct) the effect might be in a darkened room!

joyeuse13 October 4 2005, 18:28:30 UTC

But, but, but...historical accuracy! Nifty costuming coolness!

*pout* You just don't want me to have any fun.

I assume winning costume contests counts as "fun", yes? And that doing it repeatedly is more fun than only doing it once, right? That said:

1) Judges are disinclined to reward entries which involve fire-supressants landing on the aforementioned judges. Ditto entries which result in evacuation of the convention hotel. (Judges dislike the inconvencience, you see.)

2) Quite apart from the entry itself, the *entrant* should be reusable. Overmuch historical accuracy in a Joan of Arc entry is...self-limiting.

Limits, heh. A costumer knows not these things.

tygerr October 4 2005, 20:19:31 UTC

Then, by all means, go for it.

But I reserve the right to say "I told you so" when you're suffering from Costumer Burnout.

joyeuse13 September 28 2005, 23:45:05 UTC

Oh, and thank you for the compliment. :)
