Let's Kill Hitler and The Girl Who Waited Amy (Plus Bonus Night Terrors)!

[cloudysky]

So I finished both LKH and TGWW a while back, but hadn't got around to taking pictures yet. Finally had chance today while it wasn't raining. Unfortunately I was back to the wig today 'cause my hair's currently the wrong colour, but it's made me realise I'm better off with my real hair when I'm Amy.

Lovely outfits! The pic with Kai Owen is awesome as well.

What size is your ASOS shirt, if you don't mind me asking? I'm interested in buying it, but the men's sizes are throwing me off.

[cloudysky]

Thank you very much! :)

My ASOS shirt is a XS. I usually wear a UK10-12 in women's shirts. I don't know if that helps you at all.

[bluetooth16]

That helped me a great deal because I know the XS will fit me! Thanks a lot!

Great, you're welcome! :D

These look incredible! The pic with the Peg Doll is fantastic!

And because it's my job in life to bother everybody about the LKH topshop top, what size is it? The cropped fit is so flattering on you :)

[cloudysky]

Thanks, I love that pic, too. I have a couple of them hehe.

My LKH top is a UK 8, so I was pretty surprised it fitted so well. Apparently those tops run a little larger than normal lol.

[huskk]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind on my eBay hunting :D

Any chance you'll upload more of those Night Terror pics then? I'd love to see them.

[cloudysky]

Yeah, I think you'd be safe to go a size down with this top if you manage to find one :)

I may do, I'm always useless at uploading pics properly. I put them all up on facebook and don't bother anywhere else lol.

Oh wow! LKH looks fantastic on you and don't worry so much about the wig--it looks great too. :) I'm glad you did a breakdown of the pieces because I was going to ask about the tank and tights. The tank color is perfect, and I was like "woah, she somehow managed to get the tights looking right!" I don't know if Karen actually was wearing orange tights layered over grey ones, but I always thought it looked like she was.

Also the Asos shirt looks really, really good. Every once in awhile I think about maybe getting it for myself, but then I think about how much work I've put into the shirt I'm making (hand-drawn polka dots, omg) and I'm just like... I can't toss all that hard work away.

And I didn't know Lisa had the Jasper Conran jacket! It looks beautiful on her.

Now that I've vomited rainbows all over you... ;)

[cloudysky]

Thank you! *Massive hugs* You can vomit rainbows all over me as much as you like, it's really appreciated. Not been feeling quite so confident today, so I'm glad it's just me being me lol.

I need to get over my problem with wigs 'cause I need to wear one for Gwen, so it's no good hating on them all the while. As for the tights, I'm pretty sure she is wearing orange over grey as in some of the filming and promo pics you can see holes in her orange tights and the grey ones are peeking through lol. So yeah, I stand firm with that one. I think they would have been a little too orange on camera without.

The ASOS is great, it surprised me how good it looks! I still intend to mod it a little so it fits better (and looks more like Amy's), but I have until June to make those adjustments.

Yeah, she snagged it while everyone was over at Gally last year for pretty cheap on eBay :) It does look fantastic on her, but then, everything does haha.

Aw! *hugs hugs*

I know what you mean on wigs though. I have to wear one when I do Peri and it's sort of annoying but a necessity. (The wig I got for her last year is this fantastic lace front but either it's too small or my head is too big because you can see a tiiiiny bit of my real hair on the sides and the wig feels tight as hell.) But the Amy wig looks nice! I like that it's more of an auburn color instead of omgorange.

I heard that the Asos shirt is a bit blue, so are you planning to run it through a light dye wash or something, or does that make you a bit nervous? I've been looking at my shirt and trying to decide if it's possible to put the slits in the side like Amy's has, but my mom the seamstress is unsure.

This is the last picture I took of my shirt progress.. I've got everything done but half of one arm now. Once I started getting into it I realized the dots were maybe a smidge too big and close together, but I couldn't really start over. I bought some black buttons to replace the white ones too.

That looks really good!!

[eversome96]

They are all just completely amazing ! :)

Thank you! :D

Oh my gosh--you look absolutely PHENOMENAL! The tank is absolutely perfect and I LOVE the color of the tights in the sunlight! All three costumes are beautiful on you!

And don't work about the wig--it looks great either way! :)

[cloudysky]

Aww, thank you so much! The tights are great, right? So pleased!

That's good to know.
