I'm the one of the right!\
So with that, it's time to update the costume blog... which has had more revisions lately then a DC character. Just a quick note, I'm so happy I've got so many completed costumes on this list already and I'm still adding more as events occur. I think I'm way on to making my goal of 12 costumes throughout the year, but it has been tough going at times however it's paying off for me emotionally and mentally (although not financially).
2013
- Big Macintosh – Completed!
- Notes = Needs a better shirt, better pants, otherwise pretty neat.
- Real Ghostbusters – Completed!
- Notes = Need to finish missing parts on the thrower, create a proper hooking system for pack. {2013-04-23} completed Mk I Gun Hook, partial success, needs improvement but also need a sturdier thrower.
- Eureka Sheriff – Completed!
- Notes = Gun Belt never arrived and thus didn’t purchase holsters. Pants didn’t fit exactly well, will need new pair if done again.
- Forbush Man – Completed!
- Notes = Formerly [SECRET PROJECT ALPHA], need to recondition the helmet and it’s starting to get some dings and is flaking paint.
- Helmet has been reconditioned and looking a lot better for it!
- Cybershade – Completed!
- Notes = Formerly [SECRET PROJECT BETA], still needs to be finished cutting up all the strips of fabric but was able to troll a couple of my Whovian friends on the Saturday at Supanova who didn't know I was making the costume.
- Brought ahead in time as a secondary costume but has proven to be an easier build to work on by myself than Goliath (which I needed help to make the muscle suit but scheduling hasn’t been great in that regard).
- Wreck It Ralph – Completed
- Notes = Managed to successfully shock so many of my friends throughout the Sunday with my freshly shaved face, as most of my current friends hadn't seen me without the beard and especially as I still had the beard underneath the Cybershade mask the day before.
- Life Day Wookiee – Completed
- Notes = Formerly [SECRET PROJECT GAMMA], kept secret to surprise my friends who are huge Star Wars fans, who were also hosting the party. Quite quickly put together but looks very effective and will be used in a future performance possibly in 2015.
- Beast - Due end of July
- Notes = Got two weeks to construct this for the Wolverine screening with PAC, shouldn't be too bad as long as I can make my mask look good and rework the abandoned Goliath muscle suit to work with my concept... time to learn to work with fur.
- [SECRET PROJECT OMEGA] – Due October
- Notes = Halloween costume that I don’t want to spoil JUST yet.
- Volstagg – Due November
- Notes = I won’t be starting this for another couple of months.
- Hobbit – Due December
- Notes = Still no clue which character I’ll do at this stage so progress won’t happen until I am.
- Doctor Octopus – Due December
- Notes = Should have this build ready for the Telethon Christmas Pageant, if not it’ll be at Oz Comic-Con Perth 2014
I keep coming up with more and more ideas that I’ve so far haven’t wrote down, but these are pretty much in flux until such time when I’m actually making them.
- Arrested Development Series 4 Fantastic Four skit
- Notes = I've wanted to make either a Rock Monster or Human Flamer costume since I saw this!
- Galaxy Quest – Due Supanova Perth 2014
- Notes = Got the prop kit online, need to construct
- Baseketball
- Notes = Just talked myself into doing this but no real goal in mind except that I want a 'Beers' outfit and make a Baseketball at some point (maybe with the Laz-E-Boy printed on it).
- Kung Pow – Enter The Fist
- Notes = Maybe Supanova 2014, don't know the character yet but might be Wimp-Lo at this stage.
- Eddie (Rocky Horror) – TBA
- Notes = No idea if/when this project will come about, but possibly if there is a Rocky Horror Screening in the near future.
- Goliath (Borderlands 2) – Postponed due to financial/health/time issues.
- Notes = On-hold, maybe in the future.
- Ghost Smashers – TBA
- Notes = On-hold for now, maybe 2014.
