ReaperCon Cosplay

[ShadowRaven]

I was comfortable, no matter what I wore.  Texas in April is nice, and the air conditioning was still warmer than what I left behind 

[TaleSpinner]

I think I was under one of the AC vents over on the edge of the room.

So it felt like home sweet home?

Pretty much.  After 5 months of winter, most of it below 0, I'd been looking forward to heat. 

[Colonel Kane]

I hate winter. I wish to sleep through it, alas there are children to be duct taped.

Test run of the UFO costume complete:

[ShadowRaven]

yup. That works

[Keianna]

Awesome!

[haldir]

Nice!!

 

 

Still haven't decide if I'll dress up next year or not. If I do it'll be a store bought one as I have no costume making skills whatsoever!!!

[ShadowRaven]

my costuming so far consists of "I bought a lightsaber flashlight" I need more to go with it.

[MissMelons]

I need a lavender blouse/skirt and a star trek costume. Probably going to finish it after Christmas.

I think I might need to enlist some help in finding a pattern for my costume. I've never sewn off of a pattern before, so I'm not sure where the best places are to search, or specifically what words to search for.

 

I'm trying to find a pattern for a dress similar to the black one on the right, but with bell sleeves (though I assume sleeves are pretty easy to modify...?)

 

(Spoiler'd due to large image)

 

 

 

 

 

I have a friend who makes all sorts of costumes whose help I will enlist, but I want to be able to bring her the pattern, fabric and thread to make things easier. My plan is to find a starry/astronomy patterned fabric to make the dress out of, which I will dress up with sparkly jewelry. 

 

Huzzah!

I'm really tempted to just bring sith regalia, but not sure that's close enough in theme...

More to the theme than my idea.  If I can't think of anything better, I was going to wear a Hawaiian Shirt, carry around some plastic dinosaurs and say "I'm a leaf on the wind" a lot.

And on the last day of the Con do we get to shove a massive chunk of metal through your chest?

 

Ooooh Auction opportunity!
