And on the lighter side...

I was thinking today about costumes and Halloween, and how I wish I could just go to a con...primarily so I could dress up. Heh.

I would like to get my sewing skills to the point where I'd be good at costuming. And today I was thinking of the costumes I'd like to make.

Now I have a Wish List of Costumes I'd Like To Make!

Death of the Endless--because she is cool. So very cool.

Delirium of the Endless--because she would be very fun.

Faye Valentine, Cowboy Bebop. Good things: colors are Crayola box colors, for the most part, and easy to find. The outfit does not look difficult. Bad things: Where the heck do those black straps go? and also, skin. Lots and lots of skin. I'd have to lose weight, no question.

Julia from Cowboy Bebop--She's the only one I don't have to wear a wig for!

Queen Amidala--this dress, from the final scene of The Phantom Menace. So beautiful. And a challenge!

Padme's picnic dress.--I would watch Attack of the Clones *just* to see this dress again sometimes.

Holy cow Shelle! *shiftyeyes* I've dressed up as Faye...I still dress up as Faye... My website is dead because I can't pay to update my domain name but: http://www.cosplaylab.com/cosplayers/detail.asp?memberid=754
*sigh* I cant have purple hair anymore, but it was fun for the three years I clung to it...

*ducks* But I've made the Julias catsuit for a friend as well, if you need any assistance in the way of materials or patterning for any of your costumes I can help if you like :D

Thank you. You look GREAT as Faye. And you know Galaxy Express! That was my first ever anime. :)
