Trying to be more optimistic...

Okay, I’m feeling better now than when I wrote that middle of the night rant. Still don’t know if I’ll manage to finish my Le Chevalier cosplay for Costume Con but I went out today and picked up some more fabric, including a rainbow of silks to use for my phoenix prop. The text described Suioh as a rainbow colored bird but there’s no color pic of her; there is a different phoenix on one of the sequel covers so I’m going to use that as a starting point for where to put different colors but I might change it around a bit. Going to take a break from Ekaterina and play around with this stuff over the weekend instead.


I did a similar poll a few months back but I know some people’s plans have changed since then. Since it’s only a few weeks away now and people probably have a better idea, I’m wondering if I’ll see any of you at Costume Con. ^_^ (It’s May 1-4, near Baltimore.) The website has had a lot of info added recently, including a list of panel/workshop topics and parties. Should be lots to see with all the contests, too. The weekend pass is $100 for all 4 days. Plus, there are 1 day passes for $45 and evening passes for $10, which might be good if you’re local and want to check it out for a bit. I’m sure there’ll be lots of new people to meet but it would be nice to see some familiar faces, too. :-) My father is driving down with me the day before but he’ll just be relaxing in the hotel room over the weekend and my brother isn’t coming so I’m probably on my own most of the time.

I'm very interested to see how your phoenix turns out. I haven't started on mine though I've had the base lying around for a year. It'll be one of my summer projects since I'm done school in July and the good weather will make painting and sculpting much easier. Rainbow sounds wonderful. The artist seems to like rainbow coloured birds, I keep thinking of Garudas colours from Genju no Seiza.

Hopefully I'll have another weekend at home soon so I can hear about your progress. ^^
