A Purpose

Journal Entry: Sat Jun 28, 2008, 11:53 PM
Stolen from well...everyone lol.
Comment in this journal and I'll:

a) Tell you why I friended you
b) Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, et cetera
c) Tell you something I like about you
d) Tell you a memory I have of you
e) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you
f) In return, you must post this in your journal

---------------

So with the Con season about the start up in 3 weeks, my DA will now have a purpose. I'll be using it to track my Cons, Cosplay, etc.

When I get a free chance, I'll try to take some pics of the Akane Hammer I made for Kristine's Akane cosplay. I've painted air soft guns before, I've never actually made a full prop by myself before and it was FUN! I've got a few other props I'm planning on doing.

Plus, I've got two cosplays being commissioned right now, so when those get in I'll take some pics. Also, I need to take an actual Tatxm New Org pic. I've taken a pic of me in the coat, but never an actual Tatxm picture. I also need to get on my props for Tatxm as well. I've got plans for his accessories.

Cosplay Update 2008

Journal Entry: Mon Apr 7, 2008, 12:47 AM
Here I am sitting here, thinking about maybe going to bed but wanting to waste time. So i've decided I'm going to blog an update to my cosplays of the year. Fun, lol.

Confirmed:

Mitsurugi - Soul Calibur
AWA, Anime South, maybe Janicon and EXPcon

Clark Steel or Kyo - King of Fighters
AWA, Anime South, maybe Metrocon if Jason gets his Ash done by then.

Ranma Saotome - Ranma 1/2
Metrocon, AWA, Anime South, maybe Janicon and EXPcon
We've decided on a couple's cosplay for the year. Last year it was Matt and Mello, this year we'll be doing Ranma and Akane.

Zack - Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego?
EXPcon, and any other con Creative Galaxy shows up at!
In honor of Creative Galaxy doing another fun Carmen hunt at EXPcon, Dave and I have decided to do Zack and Ivy from the Carmen cartoon show. stephanie wants to do a photoshoot with us and post it at the Vile website lol.

Returning from 2007:

Kanon - An Cafe
Kanon will actually be my formal outfit to Metrocon and AWA's balls. For AWA, I'll have to change the pants to actual dress pants but other then that he's got the OK to be at AWA's ball. I'm sure Metro will be ok with Kanon just the way he is, but i'll email the people in charge just in case.

Maybe:

??? - Paradise Kiss
Not sure yet on who. I need to watch the series. Kristine wants to do Paradise Kiss since she basically already has Miwako practically done. I'm thinking more Arashi then George.

??? - Nana
There's talk of a Nana group next year. Kristine wants to wait until she watches all of Nana first.

??? - Final Fantasy series
I WANT TO WEAR RENO SOME TIME THIS YEAR! I saw on AS there's gonna be a huge FF gathering, and that would be the perfect time to finally, officially wear Reno. I've put a personal ban on wearing suit cosplays, but I'll make the lone acception to Reno because Turks rule! Well ok, so officially I havn't decided who from the entire line of FF i'd like to do. I hear Janicon's theme is Final Fantasy, so I could always bust a FF nut at Janicon before doing it for the AS gathering. Dave is doing Crisis Core Zach. Kya is doing Aeirth, and her bf Gin is doing Cloud. I've got a good window of FFVII there for Reno to fit in. But just not sure. But I will do a FF character this year, even if it has to be Reno.

Props:

I'm gonna try my hand at props this year. Here's a list of the couple props I'll be trying

Akane Dimensional Hammer - Ranma 1/2
I told Kristine I'd love to see the DHammer for her Akane, so basically I said I'd make it for her.

Sophitia's Buckler - Soul Calibur
Here's the big one. I think I've narrowed it down to a stirafoam circle and going from there. Maybe paper mache before painting by hand. It'll have a handle on the back side to hold too. Wish me luck on that one.
