@Fey: I know its long... but at least people will remember me via name... i hope >.<

I"m currently trying to build up the rough shape of my helmet i already had the base down

I love my li'l Kennmore sewing machine, I dont' think I want a newer one if I don't have too. I have an even older machine, it's OK, but this machine has worked HARD for me over the last decade.

What helmet ya making El?

No moment of silence yet...it may still be able to LIiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIiiiiiiVe

I'm making Princess Hilda from FFII's headdress

::googles it since she does not final fantasy::
O.O
wow, now THAT'S a hat!
I fully approve, I love me a good cosplay hat!

yeah... its taking all my patience not to give up...
the hardest part is that i have to take it on a 24 hour flight to get it to the con i'm going to be wearing it too

O.O
the heck are you going?? and from where??!
I mean, I am barely tolerating the 5 hour flight it's gonna take to get to Dragoncon later this year.

i am currently in Australia and I"m flying of to Canada's Anime North

Wooooooooooow, dedication to the art ::thumbs up:: good luck on that trip! ::looks up dates:: ah, that runs around the same time as Fanime, wondered why I'd not made it there(besides the over the border bit). But I hear GREAT things about it, I am most jealous.

Holy wow that is some flight! But I can't wait till my flight to Japan!

yes it is a flight, back in 2010i flew over to england for a convention

I love my conventions, I really do, but I don't know if I see the merit of flying to another country for one. I'd get terribly side tracked by doing OTHER things. Though, that being said, I am sort of spoiled since most of the 'major' conventions are ones I've been too, and I can't really think of an out of country one that really appeals.

America has some crazy conventions.

Like Yaoi con in San Fran

Comic Con in San Diego, AnthroCon in... I can't remember...

Anime expo in cali and Texas, NDK in Denver

heck, we're a con-lovin' country. Every state has at least one 'known' con, some are infamous, and some a ridiculous.
