Costume progress report II
Oct. 27th, 2005 12:49 pmOH GOD liquid latex reeeeeks.
Also, Ben Nye's Nose & Scar Wax is the most annoyingly sticky stuff ever. Good for modeling, though, I admit. ... Now if I can just get the rest of it off my face.
Thinking I should have dipped the pocketwatch in glue before attempting to latex it. C'est la vie.
Vest is done (and looks fucking badass) - I may have to relocate the pocket but that won't happen before Halloween, it's fine where it is for now, kthx. I put it on and wore it for a little while and it looked great and didn't fall apart. YAY LYSSIE DOES NOT ENTIRELY FAIL AT SEWING :D
I hope I can cut open the Sharpies later without utterly ruining them and the immediate area. Gambino won't be Gambino if I can't dye his hair bright sunflower yellow. XD
Edit: HAHAHA wow Sharpie ink sure does stain. Ahahahah my fingers are yellow 8D
Edit 2: And yet, cold water rinses it right out of wig fibers. D: One entire Sharpie wasted... At least I know how and where to cut it now. I'll cut up the other two later and dye rather more carefully. Tonight is all about sewing and handicrafts, if I can get that all done tonight I'll have plenty of time on Friday to poke it until it works.
Lauren? If it's not too much trouble for you to pick me up, I think I wanna go to the Animefest with you guys regardless of whether Gambino is done or not. If he isn't, I'll just throw Zax together again or something, I don't know. XD
