Chimera Costume Chatter

Kahu’s costumes are pretty much sussed, still constructing mine. Almost done though. Have to go to civilisation to get more Ados F3. Looking forward to the entire weekend! C U all there! 8)

I have a pile of arms in my room, they scare me a little when I see them out of the corner of my eye.
This is a good thing.

[quote=“Scott”]Warning Ape suits are HOT, though considering how cold it is at the moment that might be a good thing.

(if you get stuck let me know if you want pieces of an ape suit…not like I have one sitting amongst my costumes in the garage or anything :stuck_out_tongue: )[/quote]

Oh god yes, I would love an ape suit right now - it’s freezing in my room! I think I’ve got the head sorted, but what pieces do you have? I don’t need the chest or legs, but feet and gloves would be really useful and amazing! The only problem is that I have quite petite hands - glove size 6.

I have the full suit, the hands and feet may be a bit big, but I will bring them up and you can see.

Might as well write this out here - need to figure out what needs doing!

Friday night: Sorted - everything grouped on hangers
Saturday AM: Sorted - everything grouped on hangers
Saturday arvo: Sorted - everything grouped on hangers
Saturday PM: Hahahahaha. Er, need to finish headdress, need to make dress
Sunday AM: Sorted, just need to group outfits onto hangers
Sunday Arvo: Need to make robe and gown, + accessories

Thankfully I’m done making stuff for other people as well so can focus 100% on the two big procrastination projects that are my Sat PM and Sun arvo outfits.

Still so much sewing to be done! I still need to complete costumes for 2 games AND start a whole new costume for a friend. Its going to be one of those weeks…

Here’s my list :confused:

Friday night: 8 buttons to sew on, new zip to put in, hook & eye to attach.
Saturday morning: No idea; still don’t know what I’m playing
Saturday afternoon: Character sheets sent out; suppose I should find clothes to wear for GMing
Saturday evening: Top cut out but not sewn, headdress needs more paint, then glue, pants need waistband and hook & eye.
Sunday morning: Dress needs sleeves, facings and embellishments, chemise is cut out but not sewn.
Sunday afternoon: I have some fabric…somewhere…

All my stuff is done!

(Except I’m lending some kit to other players and it needs a touch of alteration.)

Eeek! Time running out. Does anyone have any elf ears I could borrow for Gordion Knot?

Will ear tips do? I can bring some.

Friday Night: Sorted
Saturday Morning: No idea who I’m playing, let alone what I’m gonna wear.
Saturday Afternoon: Sorted
Saturday Night: Almost sorted. Coat and Pants are done, need to decide on a shirt.
Sunday Morning: A bit of trouble, but nothing too worrying. I hope.
Sunday Afternoon: Sorted.

I’d hoped to be a bit more sorted by this point, but I’m on the right track.

Would anyone happen to have a gold sash? I’ve spent so much money already and would really just like to borrow one :slight_smile:

What sort of gold? I’ve got a bright yellow sort of gold sash…

I have a fairly pale gold sash

Packed my suitcase this evening.

Its good to get everything in one place.

Friday Night - Could do with some handcuffs…
Saturday Morning - Red Pants, why is it so hard to find decent red pants?!
Saturday Afternoon - A waistcoat and overcoat would finish it off nicely
Saturday Evening - Waiting for special delivery…
Sunday Morning - Hardest Costume to come up with,but i i’m finally set… although some shoes wouldn’t go a miss
Sunday Afternoon - All set, just need to get my bow and arrows upto Auckland.

Thank you Jared, that would be perfect.

Does anyone have a crucifix I can borrow for Friday night? Ideally something decently large - not one of those piddly little necklaces that people usually wear.

How about 30cm wrought iron cross on a stand? Or do you need to wear it?

And now, after much hunting, searching, scrambling, and Feline Assistance, I am packed and ready to go. It’s gonna be a loooonnnggggg week, isn’t it?

A necklace would be convenient, though I suppose not necessary. 30cm is a tad too large, though; I’m thinking anywhere from 5-20 would be best. (though if it’s on the smaller end of that it would necessarily have to be wearable, otherwise I’d be scared of losing it :open_mouth: :stuck_out_tongue:)
