Upcoming Events


My next big event I'm planning to go to is Anime North. I wasn't going to start making anything till I finish the pants, and now that I have finish them, I will be working on my next big project. I am consider on working on two costumes from the same series, but it's still up in the air. I did in fact finish making a necklace for one of the costumes and thought I might post it.


Hakama Pants


So right after Animaritime, I been working on pair of hakama pants for a client. They are custom made. I took this photo between fittings, and the finish pair look a bit different. The pleats in the front are closer together and the back is more fitted. It was a tough project to do, and I'm glad that me and the client are happy with the results.

Here are the Avengers pictures, better late or never. A few things that happened that day, we did have more people in our group, but they didn't have time to finish their costumes. Then the remainder of us signed up our costumes individually and perform as a group. That's were things started to go down hill. Do to our level of experience in costuming, I was against Rogue and Captain America was against Thor. Rogue and Cap' both won in costuming. For the performance part, it was a disaster. We didn't have time to practice on stage. The audio worker screwed up our music and was very rude to us when we pointed it out. So we had to wait for new music and we did some poses. It was very embarrassing, especially that there was an audience waiting for us.

Through out the day there was a Marvel photoshoot by Spoiler Photography. We were getting ready for our shoot, when we stumble across theirs. Dylan the photographer was surprised that we were there and asked for some shots.





After ours shots for Spoiler Photography, it was time for our booked shoot with Hillary McCormack. We took a lot of shots with her. It took while to get these photos because of the editing and the number of photos.







I had a fun time doing this, I may consider being in another group. I might not want to wear a mask again, especially on a hot day.
