Forget those cheapo $5 plastic teeth I was going to get,
LOOK WHAT I FOUND! Oh man, SO awesome! I was really worried about being able to speak but if you watch the video with the demonstration that guy's speech sounds almost completely normal. And I know I said I wanted those really long bottom fangs so I could get the underbite look but these things are just too neat. And anyway, those fangs would only cover up my canines. My own bottom teeth would be showing. These babies are top and bottom rows of teeth and go pretty far back.
Also,
Gluing the spikes on.
Aaaand done!
And I just ordered my teeth and ears. The makeup and hat should be arriving in the mail any day now.
I'm also now considering a different sword:
http://www.topicool.com/sword/military-collection/military-cavalry-sword-csa-confederate-civil-war-saber-1263.html It's cheaper, has a black scabbard, and is shorter. The other one was a whopping 43" total and even though I'm not short that's still almost 65% of my height. I would have to hoist that thing pretty high on my hip to keep it from dragging. This one is only 35" which is just about perfect for me. I'm going to wait a few days until I have all my bills paid and stuff and then I'll order it. I also still have to order the boots and buy fabric for the shirt and the flap on the pants. After that it's all little stuff like paint and buttons and buckles and such.
Oh, and of course the wig I have to wait on until it's in stock. They told me mid-May.
OMG, utter awesomeness, you guys!
