Adventures in costuming
Jun. 7th, 2007 07:23 pmPromethea's shoes arrived today. (I bought them on Ebay. Amazing, no?) They are even shinier than I imagined them. Perhaps too shiny. Oh well, I can manage that with a little rub-n-buff if strictly necessary.
More importantly, I'm committed to the costume now. Why walk this path, that leads to skirt-wearing (short skirt-wearing, even!)? The sheer badass factor, apparently. Seriously. If you have not read the Promethea comics, and you are local, we can loan them to you. (And should, since we came to have them through the benevolence of
gamera_spinning.)
Still to do:
- Poke
niveus_tigris about the leatherwork and wait patiently for him to find the right leather.
- Convert loose fabric into skirt and top. (Should be easy)
- Sculpt and gild shoulder pin. (Super easy)
- Acquire wig. (Probably expensive, but easy)
- Build caduceus wand out of er... well, something. Still working on that concept.
- Pay
niveus_tigris for leatherwork.
- Get ballsy enough to walk around in public with that little clothing on. (Not so easy, but hey. It's only one day, right?)
