Nate makes papercraft stuff a lot and...he made me the Key to Erebor!! I was so excited, I went a little crazy...



I'll get a better string/chain for it, but until then, I LOVE IT!

And yes, I'm wearing elf ears.
 
Went 55 days without shaving. Started bald, and only trimmed so it wouldn't spread to my neck. Today, I got the unequaled joy and pleasure of shaving it into a variety of styles while making stupid faces at myself in the mirror.

It doesn't grow in thick enough for my tastes. Still, it looks a whole hell of a lot better than when I tried it 6 years ago.

Went with a very 70s Sideburns and goatee combo first.

That picture needs to say "DEAL WITH IT" on the bottom.

That's 55 days? Holy shit man, to me, that's 5 days.

If I don't shave 48 hours before heading to the USA, TSA will look at my ID, laugh then proceed to randomly select me a search, pantless.
 
My friend illiara came over the other day to help me with a pattern:


I made boobie fin pad things for the front of the costume:

I'm really happy with the fabric I picked for these fin-like pieces. It has a bit of a texture to it and this shine that gives it a wet look, which is exactly what I wanted. And I was stoked that these came out exactly how I wanted! Too bad this is the only place this is showing up on the costume... I love it.

My wig finally showed up! Ordered it over a month ago, and it finally arrived from China! It has a little bit of a weird smell to it (as expected) but it's soft and pretty, so it's all good. It does need a bit of work, though... and I'm completely inexperienced when it comes to wig styling!
 
@heatherling what kind of wig stuff do you need help with?? I can try and point you in the right direction! :D

(You're beyond adorable by the way!! :heart: :heart: :heart:)
Thanks, lovely! I want to flip some of the layers outward. I checked the description and it *is* heat resistant. And the description also says in the photo they used, it was styled with wax.
I'll try to get a picture of the styled wig from the selling page once I get home!
 
So in Modesto yesterday they had a thing called Lucky Fest. I decided to help my friend promote the new location of her costume shop at the festival. My day was interesting to say the least!
