Strangers like me

Updates on the grey warden

SO MANY!





We are slowly getting there. soon soon. 



So here are a few quick photos I JUST took on the dress form. I know I went over board with the studs on the collar, there is supposed to be a larger gap on the top and bottom. BUT oh well gone to far now. Maybe in the future I will replace the collar. 

we are up to 4,240 metal studs. 




Also some Bucky WIP shots. this is the first arm, I didn't follow a template just kinda winged it. I'm going do some paint tests and then work on the final arm. I think its a pretty good test run. Plus flippin' tiny arms and no muscle. lol

Ajax

Hello world, I am a little disappointed in myself for not staying on top of updating this blog as often as a should. I normally set a goal of how many posts I want in a month buut last month was lack luster, All and all I am doing pretty well, things are still kinda strange with me emotionally but I don't think that is uncommon with my situation. I have an amazing set of friends that keep me grounded and flying true and I am so thankful for them! <3 My ladies!

I have been throwing myself into projects from costuming to work projects, which is keeping me busy. Update on Anime Boston this year : I will not be going but I do have a few friends that are attending, I keep playing with the idea of going up for Sunday or Saturday night and stay with a friend. BUT it is a BIG IF. I'd love to surprise some people but I'm not sure yet.

V-day was fun. I'm finally getting to watch season three of Hannibal. I really, really do not want this series to end. And can we talk about how much that WHOLE cast ships Hannigram. Awesome. I do believe Hannibal "Mads" and Will "Hugh" won a best couple award from the network the show is on. Tho they changed it to "best friends" I laughed pretty hard at that.

 Finally updates on the Grey Warden from Dragon Age Inquisition. We are up to 3,200 metal studs and I just ordered more. The back of the jacket is just about done, I have not taken an pictures in awhile but I will. I've also been working on a gender-bender Bucky Barnes, its a cosplay team-up with my friend Emmy (and maybe the ladies if I bug them enough to join the dark side <3).



Please ignore that ugly pink sink and my derpy, lets take a selfie face. Its the first arm I did and I am going to re-do. still getting used to working with foam and it is really fun! But practice makes prefect, right?

I also got to help out a friend who in a rush to bang out a costume for a little group event he was going to. Its not prefect and needs to be re-done BUT it worked and he was help with it. BONUS he got to learn how to kinda sew. Baby steps but I enjoyed the team-up. Even if he is our Iron Man. #teamcap #wintersolider


4 hours of work, 2nd vest will be better

Fingers crossed I'll have more to update later in the month! Get excited for the up and coming CONVENTION SEASON 2016!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHH!
