Sailor Moon

The end of April as come, sadly I don't have any updated photos on the costumes! I know, I know how awful am I? That is okay tho, I've got a ton of work done on Sailor Uranus and Umi's sword, tho my friends and I have changed the MKR costumes that were doing. Its the finally armor instead of the first stage. I've also got the skirt done for sailor moon. 

Oh right! My friends and I went to a Sailor Moon panel at AB and that is were we heard that they were coming out with new Sailor Moon merchandise!!!! SO EXCITED! So my friends and I went to the mall...well we went to two malls, haha!! In search for these items and I got this!
SAILOR MOON WALLET!!!!!
> : D
 
We also found some wicked cute T-shirts, bracelets and buttons! We found that Hot Topic had the biggest selection.. I know when was the last time you stepped into a Hot Topic? About five years, but totally wealth it for the hunt of good sailor moon merchandise!

There are few I deny

Right so now that AB is over, I've found myself not missing the con-life. But now that its over I can start forming my new costuming list for next, if I go next year... what the hell am I sayin' of course I'm going to AB next year! HA! Plus I hope to be going to ConnectiCon 2013 too, can't make it this year becuase of Celebration 6 in August, which I need to start saving monies for.

So for new costumes the list goes as so.
  •  Umi - Magic Knight Rayearth (MKR)
  • Sailor Moon - Sailor Moon (duh)
  • Sailor Uranus - Sailor Moon (becuase I have the wig/fabric for it)
  • Steampunk Rikku - Final Fantasy X - (its this idea I've had in my head for awhile)
  • Night Sister - Clone Wars (idk yet tho - maybe for C6)

I've already started on Umi (MKR) mainly because I'm still on vacation and trying to not spend an money so I've been using up the fabric that I have layin' bout the craft room. When we where at AB we went to a Sailor Moon panel, plus I've always loved the series and ALWAYS wanted to be Sailor Moon (we have the same birthday!). Again I have the colors for Uranus and the wig so thats easy enough. Also I've never really enjoyed the idea of making my own steampunk oufit because...well where would I wear it? Love the style and I have the highest respect for the costumers that do it well! And thats were I'm going with this, at AB friends of mine had a booth (Nick and Jillian) their stuff is amazing, simply breath taking! So after that my Rikku crossover steampunk idea came to play with her being a machanic/gease monkey outfit. I'm excited.

I've been thinking long and hard about C6 and what costumes I could bring and what I could make in time for it. Night sister seems easy enough...red fabric, white wig, grayish skin color with black markings...wait heres a picture.


The hoods would be really fun to wear, I'm still not that good at making prop weapons tho.. hmm maybe I could enlist some help with that. Well I'm headin out. Wish me luck with the first day of work tomorrow in a week!
