I see fire

Hello everyone! Hope your holiday was merry and all that good stuff! I had a very nice couple of days with my family! My other half is out of the state for ... its been a week now with his family for the holiday. I hope he comes home soon, I miss him. ANYWAY, I have a Legolas photo shoot in the the works sometime next week with armor one, stay tuned for more. I've got some of my work in progress photos too.

I got ride of the scaled ends..  didn't look good.

I've been working on this for two days now... I've reattached the shoulder armor to the outer jerkin and I've been working on two different styles of gauntlets ... we will see which ones look better in the end. (a little side note as this is going on I have also been re-doing our bathroom, in between paint drying I'm working on a piece of this costume) the chain mail under shirt I am cheating and just doing the bit that is showing.... tho I did have to re-do the chain mail from the premiere it looked... off. This chain mail is killing my eyes..... :( boo.

Just a quick update before the new year!! Hopefully I'll have new photos by Saturday!!! Have a safe New Years!!! 

Holiday love

These are all coming off Tumblr from some amazing people, I wanted to posted them here to spread the love and it makes me happy. So here is some Kiddway spam for the Holidays

The pouting woodland prince

               Sorry that I haven't posted anything for awhile, I was on vacation last week and really did want to do anything but work on Legolas for the hobbit movie. That's right! I went to the midnight showing dressed as Legolas and nobody even cared, hahaahaa. It was really that exciting going to a midnight release, I remember the days when it was AWESOME and all the fans went. But now its kinda ... well lame. I don't know if I'll dress up for the last movie, but who knows.

This is my natural ear! Right!? totally an elf.

Goofing off

Pouting and I need lighter blue contacts

              I'm not gonna lie I kinda run out of time with the armor and rushed it at the end, it needs some more touching up and I'm gonna do a photo shoot with this armor. For those who have researched this costume you'll know that he has about four different costumes in this movie and the next. So I'm doing this armor and his traveling outfit when he is hunting the orcs (no that is no a spoiler). Also need to get lighter contacts, it might have been the bad lighting but my eyes looked black. mahahaha!

Fancy seeing you here
