yubsieGetting late, so just a quick post with my River costume pictures. I'll post up the other pictures from the party tomorrow. ALso, I want to get some outside shots when it's not raining, because there are some fun photo spots on campus.
This one shows off a bit of how the cotumes hangs, even if I did forget to take my glasses off... You really have to see it in person to fully appreciate how it moves and why I love it oh so VERY much.
This one looks more like dancing than fighting becaus I was trying to hold the pose for multiple cameras. Hopefully someone else got a better shot of it. :p
My fighting pose. The redeye adds a certain something, I suppose. :p
It's River, gotta have the crazy pose!
And the "I'm okay. I'm... okay." :p
And for those of you who have been friended since the saga of making this dress... I should probably note that it is entirely hand sewn.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:18 pm (UTC)Technically the boots should have buckles, not laces, but these boots had the advantage of I OWN them. :p The boots are the most time consuming part of getting the costume on. :p

Date: 2006-10-29 07:16 pm (UTC)The boots were a five dollar Frenchy's find a few years back. I had no specific costume to use them for at the time, but they were SO cool I had to have them. THey've worked into a couple different ones since then. :p

Date: 2006-10-29 07:44 pm (UTC)Yep, all handsewn. One seam of the overdress usually took at least an entire episode of Firefly. :p

Date: 2006-10-29 08:21 pm (UTC)That's incrediby impressive. I can hand-sew, but I'm so out of practice it's funny, and I never could sew a straight seam.
I think the crazy pose is my favourite. It actually gives off the same feel as the real thing (by which I mean, the other pictures, though they show off the awesome of the costume, also show your face, which is clearly not River's face, through no fault of yours.)
Well done, Yubsie! Well done! *applauds*

Date: 2006-10-29 08:49 pm (UTC)It's amusing that I can sew a straight seam given my inability to draw a straight line with a RULER. :p
The crazy pose is fun. And that face thing is troublesome for live action costumes. :p
