Yaaay Jet wig. I love how thick it is.

I can do whenever. I just really need to kick doing Toph into overdrive. >>
ANOTHER THING I NEED. Her poofballs.

Hashi · « **Reply #701 on:** August 17, 2010, 06:21:31 pm »

well, we do have a lot of outside space here around the dorm, and once it's clean-ish, there can be space for wig styling and everything.

I dont think we can get the wigs and the sanding etc done in one day, not unless that day goes until 2 am haha.

So maybe have a sanding/bondo party, and then a wig styling one? Toph will take the longest but Auricle, maybe if you brought America to the sanding party.. I could style him that, and you wouldnt have to commute a second day?

jaqua · « **Reply #702 on:** August 17, 2010, 07:51:13 pm »

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO GET IN ON THIS PARTY. Yagi, were we wanting to buy our Sokka and Katara wig stuff at the same time? Because if I get Katara's wig I can style it there, but if you'd rather wait that's chill with me. And if this workparty is before Felix gets back I can sew on Katara's trim while I'm there too woooooooo!

goatchild · « **Reply #703 on:** August 17, 2010, 08:12:17 pm »

@Jaqua: I actually had to go ahead and buy my Sokka wig stuff since I'll be leaving Thursday night. If we still wanna try and match, the color extension I got is just a really dark brown, but not a blond brown or a red brown. Just brown. The actual color is M4/30, but there were other extensions there that were M4/30 and looked completely different, so don't bother looking for the exact same color. XD If you go wig shopping with Hashi, I could leave part of the extension with her for matching.

Or you could just go get a dark brown wig and not bother with the matching. XD

@Auricle: Yay~ Rev War America! You're going to be so awesome! >w<

For any of you going to Hashi's sanding party, you'll also have a pleasure of sanding my wonderful boomerang! Cuz the likelyhood of me sanding it before I leave is about as likely as me learning how to dance in two days! 8D

Malaria · « **Reply #704 on:** August 17, 2010, 08:27:09 pm »

I will sand your boomerang with tender loving care.

goatchild · « **Reply #705 on:** August 17, 2010, 09:00:31 pm »

...I'm not sure how I feel about that statement, coming from Toph, but I appreciate the thought none the less. <3

jaqua · « **Reply #706 on:** August 17, 2010, 09:27:24 pm »

Hahaha xD If you wanted to leave a sample for me to try to match that would be cool, since the more we can look like we match the better. But either way, looking for a dark brown wig should be pretty easy xD

And what day are we thinking we'd have the work party? I'm free pretty much any day but tomorrow, but I don't think we'd do it that early anyway...

Auricle · « **Reply #707 on:** August 17, 2010, 11:39:46 pm »

Too bad we probably couldn't pull off a siesta fiesta. XD

So we're looking at getting together on two separate days to get everything done, right? I don't really mind commuting for two days, but I'd have to make sure that it would be okay for me to be away from the house for that long. I'm sure I can get at least one day, so sanding and America wig one day, and then you guys can do the rest of the wig stuff on the second day if I can't get two days?

As far as dates go, when is a good time for everybody? I'll be free-er on the weekends 'cause my dad'll be home so there'll be extra help here. So I'm going to suggest the 21st and 22nd. ' w '

Hashi · « **Reply #708 on:** August 18, 2010, 12:08:19 am »

21st and 22nd works for me, I may get some sanding done this thursday but we'll see.

Also guys,

Yeah. Yeah I did. Have Jet in a Yukata.

Malaria · « **Reply #709 on:** August 18, 2010, 12:09:03 am »

I'm down with this weekend.

jaqua · « **Reply #710 on:** August 18, 2010, 03:37:36 pm »

This weekend works for me too. Sweet.

@Hashi: YOU LOOK SO COOL AS JET OMGGGGGGGGG

goatchild · « **Reply #711 on:** August 18, 2010, 03:45:44 pm »

@Jaqua: I can go ahead and leave some of the extension. Also, for the makeup, it's $15 each divided equally between the three of us, so whenever you wanna get that to me or Hashi, that'd be great. : )

@Auricle: We WILL have our Siesta Fiesta. Someday. And it will involve delicious pasta. And cute things. >>;

Hashi · « **Reply #712 on:** August 18, 2010, 04:48:39 pm »

@Jaqua: XDD Thank you

OH! I took apart my armor progress and by doing so, actually made MORE progress. Most everything is ready to paint now! 8D

AKA the sanding party, may be more of a.. wood putty/bit of sanding and painting party

Auricle · « **Reply #713 on:** August 18, 2010, 06:26:24 pm »

I haven't actually watched Avatar, but you look really good Hashi. > w <

jaqua · « **Reply #714 on:** August 18, 2010, 07:07:20 pm »

@Yagi: That's riiiiiiiiight my bad I totally forgot. I'll have that for the next time I see either of you : D

@Auricle: It's okay, I haven't seen Avatar either :|

Funny story though I was at Felix's house and we were looking for Katara refs on piandao and we were looking through screenshots and I was like "HEY WHO'S THAT GUY HE LOOKS AWESOME" and she was like "that's Jet" and I was like "THAT'S JET?!?!?!"
It was pretty cool

Auricle · « **Reply #715 on:** August 18, 2010, 07:21:11 pm »

@Jaqua: Then we can be baffled together~

@Yagi: What sort of cute things? : D

I got all of my fabric for my Rev War uniform. It was really expensive, but my parents paid for it so it's all good. This is the best reward ever for taking care of my mom for three weeks. > w <

I'm sososo excited to make this. I hope I can finish it in two weeks. ' w ';

So I was hanging with a friend who's seen the Germans shoot mid-edit and promises that it's awesome and there are plenty of gifs. I am extra anxious to see it now.

Andy put up a bit of a preview batch of our Germans shoot, which included some fab gifs. This is the best one, obviously.

That's brilliant! XD And of course you're everyone's favorite Austria. You're my favorite Austria anyways. > w <

Is that your dining room?

Malaria · « **Reply #723 on:** August 19, 2010, 10:34:08 am »

D'aww. You're my favorite N Italy. <33

Yeah. We did the shoot at my house for maximum frumpiness.

Hashi · « **Reply #724 on:** August 19, 2010, 11:22:51 am »

So, Auricle is coming with us on our adventure! Shes coming over to the dorm right now, so when should we head out? as soon as she gets here or???

Auricle · « **Reply #725 on:** August 19, 2010, 06:29:39 pm »

Malaria, are you sure that you aren't your favorite N. Italy? ' w ';

And yaaay adventures~

Malaria · « **Reply #726 on:** August 19, 2010, 06:49:08 pm »

Naw. You're much cuter. And more naturally N Italy-ish.

Auricle · « **Reply #727 on:** August 19, 2010, 08:20:42 pm »

Th-thank you? > w < Ahaha my personality and level of uselessness are very close to N. Italy's anyhow.

You can pull off damaged-in-the-psyche-more-realistic-personality-mafia-N. Italy though. Once again, we complete each other. Sort of. : D

Malaria · « **Reply #728 on:** August 19, 2010, 08:34:58 pm »

I am pretty great at being mistaken for a cheerful sociopath, it's true. XD

Together we can get places and be really cute! -high five-

Auricle · « **Reply #729 on:** August 19, 2010, 08:46:04 pm »

Aaw yiss.

Alternatively, when I do America and you do N. Italy we can work on trying to sense the atmosphere. ='D

Malaria · « **Reply #730 on:** August 19, 2010, 08:52:25 pm »

But how can I be concerned with sensing the atmosphere when there will be pretty ladies to dance with!

... Are you gonna have a musket? : DDDD

Auricle · « **Reply #731 on:** August 19, 2010, 09:04:01 pm »

Ah, so true. The ladies always come first.

I will for when I take photos at home. : DDD If one of the SAR guys lets me borrow one. It'll be a real live replica black powder musket too. The one we were borrowing a while ago was taller than me though. = w =

Malaria · « **Reply #732 on:** August 19, 2010, 09:19:09 pm »

That only makes it better. XD

I am soo excited for your cosplay. <3

Auricle · « **Reply #733 on:** August 19, 2010, 09:21:13 pm »

You have no idea how excited I am to finally be making this. > w < It would be even better if I had an England to go with it~ -hinthint-

Malaria · « **Reply #734 on:** August 19, 2010, 10:24:29 pm »

There is no way in hell I could make a whole lobsterback in two weeks. Even if I didn't have another entire costume to do. xP

Auricle · « **Reply #735 on:** August 20, 2010, 09:22:17 am »

Not for this con in particular, but I do need a counterpart at some point. ' w ' Or I can wait until Ashley learns how to sew and eventually decides to put that cosplay together. Maybe I'm just being too impatient. : ' D

Malaria · « **Reply #736 on:** August 20, 2010, 11:14:18 am »

No, your impatience is totally sensical. <3
Someday, you will have a Rev War England! Even if it involves bullying Felix into doing it.

Kero-sempai · « **Reply #737 on:** August 20, 2010, 02:11:30 pm »

@Yagi: Have a good time in Mississipi, Hannah! *waves*

So I'm back from New York, armed with a zillion pictures of various and random things that have yet to be uploaded anywhere. Greenday was awesome and sexy and talented and all sorts of other positive adjectives, and I think I actually almost killed my camera taking so much video and messing with the night shot settings during that escapade. ;;
It was all quite grand fun. l3

Whilst attempting to figure out if I had missed much, it seems that there is quite a lot of progress going on amongst the PoSms and the OCD. Plus Russians. I would have rather liked to have been here for that.

@Britany: Let me guess. Chelsea never did tell you that I called, did she? ;

Auricle · « **Reply #738 on:** August 20, 2010, 05:17:19 pm »

I'm excited to hear about your travels! And no, she didn't tell me. I'll call you after dinner tonight. ' w '

Oh, and when and where are we meeting tomorrow? I'm sure it's in the thread somewhere, but I just wanted to make sure.

Hashi · « **Reply #739 on:** August 21, 2010, 06:28:21 pm »

Obviously you guys are so bro that you hang out, listen to brololo and eat Broblerone. Obviously.

And hahaha I was so excited when I found it. I went to the fair with a friend today and it was at like the first booth in front of the entrance. It was the last one, and it was only $5. It's blue, so it even matches my Azzuri~

It's really loud. X'D It's nice though 'cause the mouthpiece half of it collapses into the horn half for easy portation.

I got myself a Betsy Ross flag today as well. ' w ' It's puuurty~

Also what do for photoshoots guys? I'll have uniform Italy, FIFA Italy and Rev War America. Which ones should I wear? ='D

Felix · « **Reply #749 on:** August 22, 2010, 11:13:03 pm »

Hahaha... workparty? 8D;
I have several miles of trim to sew on. And I'm still attempting to do that steampunk if it drives me mad. I really just need shoes and a mod-able gun base...

OH RIGHT. does anyone have a binder I can borrow? Mine was backordered and I want to make sure everything fits right before two days till con.

(Hahaha I think it's funny that the list still has me as England. I'm still undecided. 8D; )

ALSO AURICLE. WEAR REV WAR. DO IT.
