hey everyone so just a quick update I'm just going to post a bunch of photos from the costumes I've been working on not in any particular order. But I know there are some from Nessa we went to Halloween party there's some of Lagertha and I've been working on the resistance pilot outfit.
The resistance pilot costume has been kind of a challenge. I've been going off the reference photos from a very detailed picture of 4 pilots. And I'm kind of winging it I don't know if this will be a provable from the rebel Legion or what but I think it's coming out pretty cool. I have learned how to dye polyester and I'm getting pretty good at dyeing cotton. I had a jumpsuit that was orange and I didn't want to buy a new one so I reused this one it was just the wrong color of orange. Interstellar Orange apparently is a thing I don't know if that's an actual color but Star Wars has made it one.
Hello and thank you for stopping by and checking out the blog! These are the recorded thoughts and adventures of an novice costumer/prop maker and pastry chef. Get ready to see some random stuff from everyday life to all the conventions I go to with friends! Enjoys

Not all bad
Hey everyone so again I've been really bad at staying up with posting and showing work in progress updates. So here is going to be another photo dump of everything I've been working on for the past 3 weeks and I think I'm going to be updating the cake page 2. We did a few new things in the bakery so that needs to be updated.
There are also some new costume plans in the works with some lady friends of mine that I'm pretty excited to start. It's been a pretty crazy month in the bakery so I've been busy and my sister's baby shower was also over this weekend.

Inquisitor
Hey everyone I have an update in awhile with actual words. Only pictures. But finish is almost done I'm just waiting on some leggings and some clear sandals and then I think we're going to do the nosepiece again and do a test fit sometime next week.
We didn't go to Boston Comic Con that was over the weekend way too hot and thought we'd save some money by not killing ourselves in the heat.
I started working with foam again I decided that I was going to try to make a helmet. The helmet from Dragon Age Inquisition the inquisitors helmet I got a free pattern off of the Evil Ted Smith Channel on YouTube. You should go check them out if you're going to start working with foam. He really knows his stuff and he's a good teacher watch all those videos over and over again
It was pretty hard again I don't have a lot of experience working with phone never mind making a dome shape so it was kind of a trial-and-error a lot of failure but I like the way that only come out in the end it's not perfect butt it works
I wasn't really planning on doing anything else with the helmet other than just make it just to see if I could but then I start looking online and I saw a lot of people doing Inquisitor armor and I found one that I really like from the guy had really good pictures of how we made it so I'm going to go ahead and make an Inquisitor costume. So get ready for that

The last day of relaxation
Hey everyone. I've been on vacation this whole week and I haven't got a whole lot done with costuming. I have been working on Fenris and I need to make a cape 4 Thor but that isn't due till the 12th of August
We went to a wedding over the past weekend my mother-in-law got married and hopefully I have some pictures soon just short on my dress but I only have a silly photo that I took in the mirror sums up my personality pretty well.

The day that never comes
Again I have not been updating this blog, and I am sorry for that. I've not been working on anything to big at the moment so no work in progress photos. A few weeks ago I was in the works of finding a new job and even though it didn't pan out the way I wanted it to, it took up most of my free time.
But now I am back on the horse! I have a new line up for costumes that I want to work on and CONS to go to this summer! Also made some new cosplay friends at SMF and I am hopefully for new costume groups!
BECAUSE WE ARE AWESOME AND I LOVE THESE COSTUMES! (even tho I have no neck))
We did get some cool photos from our friend Karl B. He is an amazing photographer! Such a talent and sweet man! Captain America is my friend Emmy - You should all follow her on TUMBLR http://hello-bulbasaur.tumblr.com/ DO IT NOW!!
My sister and I went to see "The Huntmans WInter War" it was meh but there were pretty people and prettier dresses. I made up the crowns because I can. I know the Frozen queens crown isn't right I was rushing and didn't want to up to much detail into something quick.
Random photo Emmy found of us! <3

Dangerous Woman
Updates on the warden. Everything fits really well, which I am still a bit shocked at. I have also come to realize that MOST of the studs on the jacket will be hidden by the chest plate..... so I'm not sure if I am mad at myself or proud.
The total count for the studs is 5,120. - insane.
Still works on some of the belts and a shield, I have just about two weeks to finish.
