Costume report!

[idleambition]

So I hung out with Riki (Riddle) on Sunday. Turns out the mold we took may not work out. It came out ok, but Riki was so cold in the process of making it that she had her shoulders pulled up and it made her body twist. You could see goosebumps all on the mold. It was so sad, but we'll just take a new one when the weather is warmer

I was drooling over this on your Flickr. Always wanted to do this costume but I came up against the same issues with manipulating the right kind of fabrics (neoprene and leather, as you mentioned) with my lack of advanced sewing skills (amongst other things).

Looks amazing and I can't wait to see more from you and Riki!

Man, if I can bust my ass and get the Tachikoma done in time for Fanime in May and THEN ship it to Dragon-con in September, you ladies will be SET.

Totally! You're why I'm making a new GITS costume. BTW did you see my last post? Your vote counts times two so let me know what costume you like more!!

[lionboogy]

Thanks, I voted! haha

The Tachikoma is a MUST DO. I'm longing for loads of Cyberpunk this year. I've seen lots of costumes using the them, but really no mecha and the last cyberpunk mecha I built was the XenoSaga bike.

Other than that, just an excuse to roll out shit with glowy lights. OOooo Aaaahhh

Damnit. I have to hang out with you and Rikki more! (This is Sarah by the by).

You two ladies just rock!

[idleambition]

Yes. Make it so!

Also let me know about tomorrow
