I need direction. ("I have direction." "Yeah, towards the mall!") I've promised the Comic-Con Masquerade coordinator that I'm going to enter this year. Further, I really *want* to enter this year. Problem-- I have nothing with which to enter; all my costumes have already been in contests. And none of my planned costumes are impressive enough or well-known enough. Elizabeth, if I make her in time (and that's in serious doubt), would really need a Will and/or a Jack for a good presentation, plus PotC is probably going to be the most overdone theme this year. Sikozu is too obscure (and requires lots of hair and makeup effort). Padme's cut scene family gown is also too obscure. The blue Padme picnic dress I want to make is only inspired by, not an actual recreation. Arwen's ceremonial dress might be a possibility, but would be better with a matching Aragorn (which just won't happen). Also, her butterfly crown would be hella hard to make.

Gah! What do I dooooooo? I know I need to just *pick* something and start in on it. Wish my costuming friends lived near me so we could be a group entry. :( :( :( After One Ring Circus last year, I really want to put together a big production-number entry. Wah.

Hey, Halo armor actually does exist-- Nightmare Armor (http://www.nightmarearmor.com/) makes great stuff. They're going to be at comic-con, too!

If I had paid attention to AtS at all this season, I might consider Illyria. But my interest in the show has dropped so low that I hardly even know what she looks like.

Wow--the armor looks great! BTW, I have a link to a picture of her in the previous post. Just click on her name. (As much as I've liked this season of Angel, I'm not too heartbroken that it's over. I just wish I had another show to watch in its place.)
