Hey so I'm thinking of being Toph for Halloween but I am far too lazy to even think of sewing a costume. Got any ideas as to how to put something simple together?
ROMO LAMPKIN WASN'T EVIL. He was morally ambiguous but not strictly evil. :P
God I still love that poster.
I miss going to conventions for things other than Supernatural. WHY THEY GOTTA BE SO EXPENSIVE? Or I suppose better question, why I gotta live so far away from any. Even GenCon is a bit of a trip, though I have friends who go every year and I don't know why I never bother to go along with.
Dude. Dragon con cost me like a FOURTH what Chicago cost me last year, and it's FIVE DAYS LONG. O.o
I'm sure it all evens out though, actually, DC probably cost twice as much if you include all the materials for making Snapdragon. O.O
But yes. Non-creation cons are a thing of beauty, chillax, and much geeky joy to be had by all. GO TO ONE! :D
I have no idea how you'd do Toph without actually MAKING a costume - but really, you could put 2 bedsheets together and make this. It's pretty simple, design wise.
Do you remember Pandora entertainment? IDK if they even operated out of Indiana. But yeah, 4 day Star Trek/mixed sci-fi conventions over Thanksgiving weekend for $40 a person? That was my childhood. But then they went bankrupt, lol.
I haven no sewing skills, woe. I mean I could probably follow directions and hack something together, but much like cooking I really just don't want to put the effort in, lol. CONUNDRUM.
HOLY SHIT THOSE ARE SOME HIGH NOTES. You know what I discovered that I owned that movie the other day and I didn't even know it? Ah, Wal-mart $5 bin.
Your Mark Sheppard squee is A++!!! I loved the whole post but what is about SPN that they have the most adorable actors on the planet irl? I HOPE HE COMES TO NASHVILLE!!!!!!! PLZ MARK!!! It's also great to know that he is such a sweetie irl because it makes his acting even more impressive. :D Also your friend wins for cutting her hair on the spot. It's not worth doing if it's not worth doing right. LOL I can't wait for more pics!! XD
He was probably my favorite part of the con. Last year I think Thomas Dekker was my favorite part. It's just so laid back and relaxed and everyone respects the guests and has a good time. Gah, Creation needs to take notes. *sigh*
Supernatural really DOES have the awesomest people on the planet. Everyone loves it there, and they all want to go back. I love Mark on Spn, Leverage, Firefly, and a few other shows too, so I'm sooooo SO glad to have him on *MY* show now. I hope he sticks around a long time. :D
Lol, that's our Dean. Never does anything halfway. :D
I'm going to a Creation Con in April and I'm terrified because I keep hearing good and bad things. I just can't afford to travel somewhere that I'd have to pay for room and board along with food for the week. Plus I don't want to leave my kid totally alone with my mom for that long. I guess I'll just have to hope that a Southern location will chill the con vibe out. *crosses fingers*
Oh, Creation has its good things, it's just insanely overpriced and you don't really get much time. They are still fun, though. I'm going to attempt going to Vancouver next year. *crosses fingers*
Dude, so awesome on SO MANY LEVELS. So many things I could comment on the awesome of but one thing I just need to know - where the heck did you get that stormtrooper hoodie?! IT'S SO FRICKING /EPIC/.
Duude! I fricking want one (I just don't feel like I'm enough of a Star Wars fiend to be able to wear one w/out feeling like a poser! Must. Get. More. Into. Star Wars!!).

Not sure yet if I'm going to get to go next year, though. Me and blacklid want to go to Vancouver and it's the weekend before. We'll see. :)

I will totally put here though that I got it on MAJOR sale. Mark Ecko is pricey, dude.
