OMG a COSPLAY update?!?
Yes, really really! Now that I'm all graduated and moved and got a job and pretty much settled in, I'm ready to start thinking about the fun things again! Yay! Unfortunately, all of my cosplay stuff is in storage. ;_; So while I'm not actually sewing right now, I'm thinking really hard about upcoming stuff until I can go retrieve it. Yeah. Really, really hard. XD
So my biggest problem, as usual, is TOO MANY COSTUMES, NOT ENOUGH CON. I've got a lot of costumes I'd LOVE to wear again, and several new ones I'd like to get going on and debut while I'm at cons.
I'm hoping to get Sacrifice Deedlit finished up and worn to Anime Wasabi, here in Denver in March. They're a new con, so it should be a great time! Also planning on wearing Ahiru from Princess Tutu again... with the rest of the bunch, yes? ^^ I anticipate I'll be able to bust out Paprika for that, too.
So, I've got room reservations for Acen set (and boy howdy, do I have some awesome roommates), and I've got so many things that I COULD wear, but I'll focus on the things that will be new. I definitely want to have Esper Terra done (I've got all the wig stuff already, woo!). If time and finances work out right, I'm also hoping to get to Juliet's ball gown, with my Romeo, too! I've also agreed to be part of a Disney group as Giselle from Enchanted. XD LOL WAT.
The last and probably biggest project for Acen is a steampunk costume. I'm doing a "locks and keys" theme; before I moved I bought about a dozen old locks and any number of old keys on Ebay, and have been collecting bits of fabric for the costume. I'm really excited about this one!
I can bring just about any of the old ones I like, and I'm leaning toward Deedlit, Ahiru, Juliet, and Paprika (excellent Sunday wearer!). But who knows!
I'm looking into getting a table in Artist Alley at Anime Wasabi to sell jewelry and accessories... I'll see how that goes!
