ROAR HOAROAR ROAR/ *translation* CALLING ALL TUSKENS

Thanks.

I knew the color was a bit off previously, but the tan dye today made all the difference. I think it has a really used & abused look to it.

Now on to the gauntlets!!!

 

Woot. Jawa costume done. Just need to concentrate on finishing the Tusken now.

 

Tusken head's pretty much done. Have a couple bitz to put on still, though. I'm holding off on doing my gimpish harness until I have more time. That, and per the blah blah canon blah blah lame blah blah rules, a really cool Tusken (as a opposed to an everyday Tusken) won't be accepted as an "official" costume.

Might need to dye the Jawa robe again. I'll see after it dries.

Only 2 more shopping days til Starfest.

 

Stop reminding me!

 

SUH-WEET! We're all in the same boat now!

And it's sinking!

 

I'm busy tonight... But give me a call Thursday if you want some help

 

If you need anything extra, I do have some PVC, fabric and other scraps. Just LMK what you need, if anything, I'd be glad to help.

 

I have to do some things to Jennay's costume on Friday night, so that is always an option too.

 

Kim, would it be at all possible for you to bring the pop rivet gun? Also, did I leave that really big pot that I used for dyeing fabric? if so, could you bring that?

 

Ben, if you need any help on Friday Night just let me know. I myself won't have a gaffi stick or any weapon on Saturday. But that is ok.

 

ok i Know we are supposed to dirty our robes. i really dont feel like dying it as I dont have time. any actually tried plain old dirt?

 

Just avoid grass, unless you are part of the grassland division of Tuskens.

 

Just bring it over. Right now. I'm dying mine tonight.

Ummm...

After I cut it out and sew it together.

 

We sprayed a bit of Fiebings Light Brown Oil dye on Cory's....quick and easy!..looked pretty good when he left. Not sure how it ended up tho?

 

So I just dirtied mine up tonight. I took some brown die and started to spray, but it looked more purple than brown. So I took a shovel, a dirt pit and some water and threw it in and got it nice and dirty.

So hopefully it looks good.

 

I did use some oil and dirt on mine as well. Good luck!!!

 

The only thing I am doing myself are my gauntlets. Empress Kimmay had pity on me and is helping me with the other stuff.


anyway, I used dirt and vanilla. So my gloves smell like cookies, but they look grreat!

<-- [Still trying to build up motivation. Almost clicked on the "WoW" icon a couple minutes ago.]
