So last time I made a DA entry was back in 2011?
*cough*
I started on a path of introversion that I'm trying to break myself out of, give me a bit. XD
However in the next few months you'll be (hopefully) hearing more from me. It's a work in progress. Really.
But onto more interesting things!
If you are looking for Foxy, she changed DA names and moved here:
StarboundEpiphany
She's much more active than I am, and actually knows how to internet. So save yourself a headache and go there.
Recently after returning from Fanime we did a bit of spring cleaning...and realized how much stuff we have. =-=
So we are selling old costumes on our etsy site! It's been quite the learning experience, I've been going back to old costumes and looking at how they were once made, and then fixing them up tremendously.

As seen here. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Level99De…




For now we only have Soren from Fire Emblem and Fang from FF13 up now. But others will be posted once completed. I have 2 Link outfits, one Twilight Princess and one Ocarina of Time which will be thrown up when I fix them. As well as Commander Simon from Gurren Lagann. Who is already being a problem child.

Lastly! I want to start on cosplay challenges and make new outfits (not for myself really) but for the store, I think it would help me try out different techniques and such. Also it would help me use up my tremendous fabric storage. <3 (no really I have way to much fabric, it needs to leave)

If you have any characters you think would be interesting to be seen made or just want to give me a scolding for not posting up on this site in....a while....leave a comment or what have you. <3

So kicking out all of the  dirt that last year left behind, I'm doing much better! A job that doesn't rake me over the coals, family trouble that finally settled, and a whole bunch of new friends.
This year is going to be fucking awesome.

Sakura Con. Seattle, Washington
Fanime Con. San Jose, California
Nan Desu Kan. Denver, Colorado
Anime Banzai. Layton, Utah
Yaoi Con, California

Another possibility will Be Aki con, which I believe is sandwiched between Banzai and Yaoi con...or maybe it's before Banzai? No idea.

Also I've started on cosplay commissions. I have a few pictures of the finished pieces that I'll be uploading soon, but I seem to have misplaced the camera cable. So I'll have to wait before I can upload them completely.

Lastly I have all of the different cosplays that I want to complete this year, I'm actually more excited to make something than I have been in a while so I hope something good comes out of that.

Legend of Zelda: I've been meaning to complete this for such a long time. Since it's my favorite thing of all time, it'll probably be appearing at either Sakura Con or Fanime. (maybe both if I'm lucky) If Legend of Zelda goes to Sakura con this year it'll either be Ocarina of Time, or Twilight Princess. Fanime will be something different. But nonetheless Legend of Zelda will be happening this year. 8D

Tsubasa or Romeo X Juliet: One of these will happen for the formal (one at Sakura con the other at Fanime), at this point we're leaning toward Tsubasa first. It would be one of the artbook outfits, where 'clone' Syaoran has this mask and claw get-up, and Sakura has this giant dress? Yeah it's that one. Romeo X Juliet would just be original outfits. Both would be very fun to make, it just depends which one we feel like doing first.

Naruto: Some new form of Naruto is going to be appearing this year. Due to the fact that we don't want to overwear the 'Epic Shippuden' and  for two Sasuke's fanoodle kills me each time I wear it.
(That and I have to enlist people around me to play tug-of-war to tighten the rope when it slips, so much fun let me tell you. )
So this year I want to get out Genin, Ryuujinki, and possibly an Akatsuki. The last one involves the fanoodle, so probably not that one right away.
But either Genin or Ryuujinki will be making it to Sakura con, which of course depends on which one we feel like doing with all of Team 7.
Lastly still in this category there is a 'fairytale' Naruto group that we're joining in on for Sunday at Sakura con. (I think it's Sunday...?) But we haven't decided our fairytale 'theme' yet. D8 This is with a bunch of other SasuNaru (NaruSasu) pairs each one having their own theme.

The last two things I have planned this year are a surprise! One is very technical, and the other I'm starting to worry about how to transport. T-T We'll really have to see how that works out.

I hope everyone is having a great start of the year! I'm going to try and frequently update this more just with different little things that I'm either working on or have completed!

Cheers!

Ehhhh~
For the record I'm not...in-active on DA? I just don't know what I'm doing or really how to load anything....chances are I'll figure it out later and feel like an idiot, and I'm ok with that. However for all the messages that asking for my cosplay pictures? I'll load them....when I remember how? 8D
