Countdown/Topic 1

The countdown to Portcon is on, and I'm no closer to being done with any of my costumes as I was last week...
Cat and I TRIED to go wig shopping, but the local costume store only had shit and nothing in the colors we needed. Fucking hell. So tomorrow we're driving into Boston and going to a place that specializes in wigs. From what I saw online the selection looks HUGE!

--------------------------------------
So this is the start of my open discussion. This week's topic; favorite type of chaacter, and why.
Have fun, and I'll check back later! (P.S. I think you need an account to reply. Get one, they're fun and easy to get/manage!)

Cosplay Update

I've decided as of now this shall be my anime/video games/ cosplay news dumping grounds.
So, as I mentioned in my last entry Portcon is next week! I already mentioned my costume line-up (Mello, Misa, Alphonse Elric, and Heather (Silent Hill 3)). With only a week left I have a lot of prep, and work to do on my costumes. Here's the run-down:

For my Mello costume I still need to get/ need to do:
-cut and re-style the wig
-get an eye patch
-get face paint

notes: though the eye patch isn't in the series I think it would be a nice touch. I've seen a lot of fanart with Mello having an eye patch, so I'll give it a try and see how I like it.

For my Misa costume I need to get/ need to do:
-get a new wig OR trim and re-style the one I have
-decide on what accessories I'm going to use/wear
-possibly cut the cap-sleeves off my corset

notes: I want to make a Death Note but I'm considering just buying one if they have them at PCM

For my Alphonse costume I need to get/ need to do:
-have Edo-chan finish the jacket
-get a wig, then cut/style it
-put the symbol on a pair of white gloves

notes: my version of Al's jacket is blue, as to be the opposite of Ed's, but complement it at the same time.

For my Heather costume I need to get/ need to do:
-get fabric dye
-dye my skirt and turtleneck
-learn how to style my hair like her's

notes: I surprisingly have the vest, which is usually the hardest part of the costume. It still needs a hood and 4 pockets, but those can wait.


One more thing. I want to start something like a weekly discussion on games/ anime/ cosplay. If anyone likes this idea let me know!

Rum is for Drinking, Not Burning

I'm listening to Pokemon music right now. How cool am I? Mum's pissed that I'm still on the computer, but she can go suck it for all I care. In other news it's recently come to my attention that I can't keep a room clean for more than .5 seconds. There's something seriously wrong with me. Like if it's too clean I get uncomfortable and HAVE to mess things up. Freak? Yeah, I think so too. Sosososo next week is going to be awesome. PCM mother fuckers! Four fun-filled days in Maine. Oh lordy. I have 3 costumes lined up, and possibly (hopefully) a fourth. So far I have; Misa from Death Note, Mello from Death Note, and Alphonse Elric from FullMetal Alchemist. I'm hoping to add Heather from Silent Hill 3 to that list. It's four AM and I'm bored. Well fuck...

Bye Bye Beautiful

The sun is coming up. Just thought I'd point that out. Any normal person is in bed, but here I am blogging. I have to be up at like noon tomorrow to take a freaking test that I've been meaning to take for two weeks now. Fun. If I had it my way I wouldn't get up till like 3. Funny, I used to be such a morning person. Now morning are the bane of my existance. Well, unless there's something really worth waking up early for. Like anime convenions. I'll get up at the crack of dawn for those. Speaking of which it's less than three weeks until Portcon, meaning Edo better be fucking working on my jacket for my Alphonse Elric costume. wstill need to go wig shopping, maybe she and I can do that this weekend. I think I need a new Misa wig. I need to trim my Mello one, that's for sure.I also have to get that costume together. Oh gods, leather pants in early July. Not going to be fun. Actually the only thing that I won't die while wearing is my Misa costume, but that's cause she's a slut. When Edo has time she also has a Marik vest/cloak hybrid to make for me. Though she's go until October, cause I won't be needing it until AAC (which I AM going to this year!) God I love being out of school <3>
I think I've ranted enough. Night all!
