I have gotten more into reading manga myself- if you haven't already, you really should pick up the vol.8 of Hellsing. Alucard goes straight into the Vlad the impaler form- it is Awesome. I have had a lot of ideas about what to go as next year but nothing I can really pin myself down to doing. I guess I have to see how the diet thing goes because as we all know the first rule is of cosplay right ? ;>)

I have had a lot of ideas about what to go as next year but nothing I can really pin myself down to doing. I guess I have to see how the diet thing goes because as we all know the first rule is of cosplay right ? ;>) I think you're too hard on yourself - proper tailoring does wonders. I've seen a number of excellent costumes on people that are above average weight when the original character is a skinny toothpick (like most of them are), but these people look fantastic due to excellent tailoring. I've seen skinny people with no tailoring, and they looked like crap. It's all in how something is made. Also choosing wisely works wonders - it's amazing how many tricks there are to make something more flattering to the figure if someone is self-conscious. I'm not suggesting Miroku the Hutt make a Felicia costume, but you get the idea. I still maintain that you have a distorted self image, though.

Bad mental Image: Miroku the Hutt in a Felica Costume. That will be burned into my head as long as I live.......... the horror~
I admit I may have a distorted self image- but I always have really. I am not sure what I want to be yet- Sessho here keeps telling me to make up my mind and soon. I have been mulling a few things over but I can't decide... ugh too many good things to choose from. If we are doing the Cromartie group- I call Hyashida!!

I was thinking the Kiran or medusa but I am not sure on those- just trying to get ideas. I have been Playing Alice lately- so I am half tempted to ask Lord Sessho to help me revamp the Alice dress- only this time in the correct colors and right lengh. Well there is always this is If I get the weight off ( or plastic surgery) whatever comes first....

well we are quickly approaching the end of this year meaning that AZ is creeping up on us like a ninja! soon it will be here and we need (at least here in h-peezy) to get off our asses and get some ideas goin! i have one idea and i think it would be uber cool and kinda like a throw back to what drew me into anime in the beggining. im thinkin DBZ roots here! LOL. are we still planning on our chromartie group? if so i need to get moving on those too. that will be a MINIMUM of six costumes i'll be cranking out. *runs away with terror in mind!! LOL. but im lookin forward to it. when i get started on projects i just get absorbed in them and lose myself. quite theraputic i'd say.

Hurray for Armour!!!!!!!!
I have made many lofty yet tottaly unrealised dreams from armour to weaponry. However I will try to build two holsters for my Febreze bottles so I don't have to tuck them in my belt. I also thought of a pottential idea that would be also quite funny, a stock of small travel deoderant bullet belt style.
