So it's only taken me three weeks to put these pictures from Colossalcon up:
The costumes were REALLY cute - Higurashi. Ilona's Reika, I'm Satoko, and Brian is our last-minute Keichii. We had a LOT of fun handing out those cupcakes. I put a stray pin we found on Ilona's costume in one of the cupcakes - in honor of the sewing needles in the rice balls (from the first story arc). I'm not sure how I feel about how I look in this costume - mostly from the waist down. But at least it's not an "Oh my god, what was I thinking wearing that" issue.
My mouth was kinda...agape...
Here's where the ribbon problem started - you can see them falling down - but doesn't quite fail as much as the two who did the schoolgirl costumes without WIGS. Or at least, dying the hair. They were kinda disinterested in us as well - pretty much my guess is that the photoshoot was orchestrated by a bunch of people on the Colossalcon forums or something, and we weren't a part of that "clique".
I Had More Fun With Terra Again Too...
That's Ilona's sawblade from her Doll costume (which I'm doing one for Otakon too! and it looked like this:)
I got some AWESOME outdoor shots with Terra. I shoulda paid a little more attention to my arm flab, but I'm trying to work on that...
I decided I like the costume without the outer purple cape, so that's the way I'm keeping it! I fixed the shoulder guards, and I added trim to the cape. I'm putting beads on it for Otakon :)
And....
We lipstick-ed our Locke (and put eyeliner on him too...)
Well, that's it for now! I have to wake up EARLY to work - then, second interview with Verizon! I REALLY hope things keep working out with this - it pays well! But before I sleep...I'm gonna play a bit of the Medievil II for Playstation Brian got for me! I loved those games!
