My Little Greedo (not a euphemism)

I haven't posted any crafts for a while, so this is me starting to catch up.

Backstory: in, like, 2009 my friend Nikki helped me out by appearing as Greedo in my Star Wars Uncut entry in which Han shoots first. To say thank you, I made her my first ever custom pony. It took way too long and I feel terribly guilty, but I'm rather pleased with the ( Read more... )

omg I LOVE this <3 <3 just a few days ago I was discussing creedo with a friend of mine. like, the fact he has the best space costume ever :D also, I'm really impressed by how neat and intricate you've made his little face. map props! or something. :D (my best friend is getting married in less than two years, and I'm going to be her maid of honor. this is pretty awesome on its own, but - wait for it - it's going to be a star wars -themed wedding, and I have the permission to dress up as boba fett <3 <3 <3 <3 omg how cool is that?)

also #1: I really loved your new year's photos, your family seems so very very awesome. <3 (the 30 day meme -post about your parents was ace, too, it made me all teary eyed and sentimental. ♥ these days I just never get around to commenting on time ( ... )

I LOVE GREEDO. It's silly really, because he's only in the film for a few minutes and he gets pwned, but I love him anyway.

Your friend's wedding sounds AMAZING! By a strange coincidence, the friend I made this for had a Star Wars party, and dressed up as Boba Fett, when she got divorced. I hope your friend's situation doesn't go that way, though! XD

Thanks so much for your lovely comments on GWY, and the family pics. Likewise, I absolutely loved the pictures you posted of your family - the one of you as a baby with the dog and the grandfathers is brilliant. ♥

creedo? wtf, I can't write anymore. :D

as usual, the happy couple will dress up as han & leah. she did consider dressing up as vader for a while, but he said he's not man enough to marry a sith lord. :D also, while dressed up as boba fett i can just stand about and nod coolly, and will be excused from giving an embarrassingly sentimental speech (well, not really), since man am i gonna cry or what. :D

:) you know, I've only had - and known about the existence of - that picture for a few years, a relative gave it to me at grandpa's funeral, which makes it all the more special. if I ever get my scanner to cooperate with my mac (or if I ever get a new one), I will post more old photos. there are a LOT of them!

Yeah - as cool as a Vader bride would be, I think it might confuse people to see Vader and Han getting married. "This didn't happen in the film!" XD

Fera, you are too ridiculously awesome. I think you are one of the awesomest people I've ever "met"

He's so awesome, you did a fantastic job! :D :D

I found my second pony much easier, but no less nerve-racking! Ugh, that moment of putting them in the oven.

I should really post those on my journal at some point. Ack, I'm so behind with everything.

Thank you, love! I couldn't have done it without all your advice, so thank you for that too.

Sekrit: I ended up having to put him in the oven twice, the second time after I'd glued on the eyes and put on quite a lot of paint. I was so scared I was going to open the oven and immediately pass out because of all the fumes.

Ahh, thank you so much! This was surprisingly fun to make, so I'm seriously considering making some more. Leia's hair would be fun to try.
