EFP4 - Costume update

Okeey, plan a fro footwear failed, now I have to do plan b, which is shoes. I didn't really wanna do shoes, but I guess I have to. Because after my first costume test (ie. walk in the woods in costume) I discovered that I can't walk barefoot. So shoes it is. I'll use you old riding shoes as they look pretty good. The pants I have only reach to my knees, so I'll have to figure out something. But shoes will protect my legs from ticks which there seems to be a lot of. I have two more pieces of clothing to do for this character, a long vest and a jacket. For both of them we don't have the fabric I would like to have so I'll have to make it in something else. Because there is no way I'll make it to the fabric store in time. And then there are tons of little stuff that needs to be done and some more walking in the woods. The costume needs to look used, lived in. I am also planning that the character will have dreads and my mom said yes to making them. One other thing I discovered on my walk today is that there is no way I am going to be able to wear my cloak while we walk. So I am going to have to find space for it in my 'back pack'. The jacket will have to be water proofed, but that will be easy to do.

I have also gotten a desire to make a Shadowrun costume or two. I pretty much have the design for both down, one will be Shadowrun version of me and the other is a shaman with a liking for steam punk. I am also thinking of how to do cyberware. I think I have a ton of ideas and most of them pretty wicked. Which means I need my dad to bring me the broken computers he have been talking about since I need them. But if I am going to do this correctly it also means I need make up, which shouldn't be too hard. I know where to get it, I just need to get my act together and get the money. I am also drooling over my second corset, and my first one is not even done, bad me. But my mom agrees and says 'buy it'. I guess I am gonna check out the shipping of the baby to Norway, since I am not in the mood to wait.
