If I can find a black suit and a red tie I can be an old fat HITMAN. LOL
That's what I told my boyfriend to do! Hahaha don't be down, I LOVE your THAT GUY costume. It's very creative and I definitely want a picture

Most likely saturday. I just finished the belt about a week or two ago, and i'm pumped. Yours does look a little better in the photos, but I have the blue rashguard as well, so we'll be different enough. We'll have to compare belt making skills/techniques. haha. Once I find what box I packed my camera in I'll post a pic or two.
I'll most likely wear it saturday, but not positive. I did greenman on the saturday last year too.
Woooow! I had to show my husband since he plays the Black Templars. We are both thoroughly impressed. Hope we get to see it in person!
Just watched this stupid movie that I kinda enjoyed called SUPER. maybe I can be the CRIMSON BOLT. HA!
I could just hose this thing with a fresh coat of regular ole spray paint and call it good, but that just feels like a cop-out. I do think I'll be filing this project under "shit to never attempt again" after this PAX.

Tell me about it. I've gone through three wigs and two pairs of underpants ( for poison ivys leaf like underwear) and I'm leaving Sunday and don't have a day off til then. It's almost done thank god.

Your gun is coming along nicely! I remember when you posted your original "two nerf guns smashed together" concept picture on the official Protoboards last year. Actually it was right after I posted my super ghetto concept:
EDIT: Does anyone wanna see what happens when you take a picture and your motorcycle helmet isn't actually fully pressed down on your head and you don't realize it at the time?
Whoops! So yeah, that's a 99% done picture complete with a comically huge head. :lol:
EDIT EDIT: Also I will be shaving before I go to PAX. I'm not gonna show up with a two week old bright red beard when cosplaying Megaman, lawl.
EDIT EDIT EDIT: Also, I should probably clean my camera lens sometime soon.

As for the painting, it's far from perfect. If you look real close at it, I mess up all the time. I paint a lot of 40k stuff so my brush control is getting a bit better. Just keep at it, the wonderful thing about paint is if you screw it all up, you can just sand it down a bit and start all over!
Are you going to sport your costume to El Corazon's?
Since it sounds like we'll both be at El Corazon I guess I'd better be sure to bring a camera with me.

Western style clothes with red/gray theme and a yellow scarfy sashy thing. Assuming you live in a place with decent access to stores, you could get a grey vest, grey pants, red boots, a red shirt to wear under the vest, a red belt, and off you go. If you're lucky you've got a place you can buy a poncho at somewhere. If you can't get that stuff locally then I dunno. If you're handy with a sewing machine and have the time, you could do a marathon pattern sewing run and make it all yourself. All of my clothes were done via pattern (the shirt was modified).

Though the Halloween shops have begun stocking up, might be able to find some cheap stuff there until I can replace it. Might just end up wearing the Helmet and armcannon with a Protomen T-shirt and my new Penny-Arcade shoes, hahaha.

I actually Fixed the bat boy and it looks nearly perfect! I previously just drew the bat boy on with Sharpie and Gel pen, then coated it with spray gloss. that worked for about 5 minutes after it dried until I realized that it was SUPER sticky. It was basically ruined after an aquabats show that caused the belt to stick to the mass of people in front of me and collect tons of lint.
I was thinking about how I could fix it last friday and a lightbulb turned on.
VINYL CUT STENCIL!
I went to the Mall and had a Kiosk Vinyl cut the Bat Boy for me,
then went to a local Craft store an bought some stuff called SIMPLY SPRAY
I took it out side (because it's basically spray paint for fabric) and sprayed it over the Stencil
After waiting an hour I peeled the stencil off and VOILA!
As you can see, the Newer one looks MUCH better than the old one.
Blue rashgard? NICE! We'll have to meet up on Saturday in uniform for photos!
And also, a few photos of my artifact
Where'd you get the Neutral patch from? It'd be nice to find somewhere other than soviet-power to order them from.

That's great news since I think I could do 4-in-1 in my sleep after the last couple of months. Thanks for the advice on the split rings! I'll be sure to purchase accordingly. I'm thinking I'll probably start in on them about 6-8 months out but hopefully it won't be as tedious since they're not form fitted like this current thing... I've had to take in the straps about three times since the photo I posted.
I didn't know that there could be color discrepancies in the shipments but that does make a lot of sense. I screwed up on this current project because I didn't know how to calculate correctly and ended up having to pay shipping twice when it would have been much cheaper and easier to just order too many rings.
Well, it appears my camera is MIA so you'll just have to believe me that its awesome. I just went with a vinyl sticker of the bat that I popped onto white vinyl and then sewed that part on. It feels slightly sticky, but I think if its too bad and causes a problem I should be able to rip it off and try the method you did. We should DM and figure out a place to met up and whatnot. I think Saturday may be mostly show floor as there is only a few panels in the evening I want to hit
Which means it's the exact same kinda potentially shifty guy I ordered my Clear Sky patch from. Oh well, the fact that we actually got ours successfully delivered at least proves he didn't steal our money.

I know what you mean. Here it is Monday night, and I still have to draw a pattern for the collar on Moxxi's coat, create the collar, and attach it to the coat. I've been hoping to try everything on Wednesday night, but starting the fall term of law school this week has thrown things for a loop.
"Pictochat? No. Dicktochat!"
hit me up on twitter, @lemonyvengeance. Well figure out when and where to meet up!
Excellent! Hopefully I an catch you while you're not too busy then
