Josh's Full Hatter Costume: And I'm sure those construction thingies with the claws and the compass and the DOOM will be lovely. I will prolly add a real chain and pocket watch to Josh's costume... perhaps other ephemera. You know I suck at planning, I just float though and collect stuff, and then COSTUME TIEM. lol Oh I'll dress up too. I just have perma-costume block. Its funner to dress Josh up than it is to dress myself up. I'll try to focus on caring about how I look and planning some costumes. I just can't always be freekin' arsed to give a shit about my own 'look'. lol. Gogo captain issues.

All my obsession with the thrift store REALLY paid off.
What you think, does it seem to NEED anything? Also, do you still have regular communcation with that Aunt of yours that does costuming? If so, how much do you think she'd charge for a basic Priest's Cassok?

I don't think it needs anything honestly. As far as my aunt, that is Megan's mom. If you want, I'll ask Megan to ask her =)

Hai Guys!, Since we are on the topic of costume-awesomeness, here are some random pictures of stuff Adam and I are workings ons: This is the gun we're going to steam-punk for the vamp-slaying costume. My clay-version of the Gravity-shifter (totally still un-finished) from UV, as compared to the movie prop (I know, mine really isn't nearly as good as the real thing, but I think it's still about as close as it's really gunna get without plastic molds): Here's the baby-stage of the project sword: And lastly, project gun:

That would be spiffy if you could ask. I'm weighing budgeting for major costumy pieces, I have to buy two, Josh's Jin outfit, and depending, POSSIBLY buying him a nice robe for modding into a cool priest outfit.
AWESOME stuffs so far!
Josh's Coat : I found this super small women's frock coat from Newport News at the Thrift store. I carved off the booby bumps, then had to tear it up to expand it with various stuffs. It took a year to get all the elements going, some trim, some purple velvet, some yelling, some stomping, a LITTLE bit of crying, then POOF a coat.

Linda wanted to know if you wanted it lined?

Unlined would be cheaper! Um. DAMNIT! My ocd wants it lined, my cheap bastard says it will be cheaper without. Can I be a pain and get an estimate for both?

Here's the response from Meg about it....
"Mom says if she doesn't want it lined, then it will be $50 plus the price of materials. Would that be ok?"
I guess that includes shipping.

SQUEE we could totally afford that if we don't go too crazy with materials! YAY! *dance* What do you think, do you think that would be oober? The cheapest one we could find was like, 295 dollars, and it was just gross poly-cotton with snaps. ;_;
SQUEE??

Alrighty, I'll tell Meg to tell her mom. Maybe you guys should converse on facebook about it. I'll tell Meg about that as well. She is Megan Hancock under my friends.

I LOVE both of them. Both are SUPER easy to do and you could prolly get both from thrifting. I think you have chose two that you could easily pull off!
By the way, I am doing Alucard from Hellsing that day =)
