    As PAX nears, my workload expands and the likelihood of me being able to get into costume contracts. I'm still gonna try, though.

    Now where did I say she would be better than gok? You presume that the little Harl tagging along with me is trying compete when she's just trying to be unique. For shame....*gasses.*

    You did not say anything like that. I presumed nothing of the sort.

    I was supporting the cosplaying prowess of goddesoffkats by expressing my belief that no Harley costume could
    out-do hers. I invite your "little" (is she a child or a short adult?) DK Harley to bring her A game.

    My comment was meant to be in the following spirit (banter maybe?):

    My daddy could beat up you daddy!
    Nuh uh!
    Uh huh! My daddy is stronger than 3 gorillas!
    Well my daddy is stronger than 2 rhinos!

    Yeah that just kinda came off mean Mentok :( She could very well have a kick ass costume! And GOK's costume while undeniably awesome, isn't by any means perfect.

    Most people cosplay for fun, not a fashion contest.

    Like judging costumes solely on latex fetish fapability? Villanesses do tend toward the skintight latex catsuit far more than heroines do

    So I'll be going as Akihiko from Persona 3 and a friend of mine will be doing Junpei, I'm just trying to figure out the grey hair part of the costume now. I even started a H/A thread to see if people can help me find a short-term solution.

    Also, I was under the impression that bringing weapons, fake or not, is not recommended, right?

    She is a child born with the powers of a full fledged Reverend Mother of the Bene Gesserit. She has a telepathic powers, including mind control, straight telepathy and truth-seeing. The little girl was the one invading the PREVIOUS pics mind, who was also a reverend mother of the bene gesserit, but of lesser quality than the little girl.

    See, now I have to go watch the 1984 Dune movie.

    Yeah, I'll get in on this.

    FallenEverdark
    Costume: Pirate Captain of the PAX Raven, w/ steampunk flavor. I will be wearing it all weekend, in variations.
    Events: I am the theatre manager for Raven Theatre, as such I will be there pretty much at all times, so if you want to see me, thats where to go. :)
    Status: 100%

    Notes: I will also likely have my ABJD with me, in a steampunk costume on Friday, possibly other days seeing how Friday goes, but due to the nature of my doll, it will be likely she's only around on Friday. So if you would like to see a hoofed/horned doll in steampunk attire, swing by Friday. :)

    I mentioned earlier that my goggles were cancelled once due to them saying they weren't the ones I wanted. Well now they cancelled my newest order saying that they no longer carry suitable goggles for a Dr. Horrible costume(btw I never told them what I was ordering the goggles for), and that they're having problems with the items and can no longer accept orders for them. So basically, my Dr H cosplay will have no goggles, either that or I'll have goggles that look nothing like Dr H's. I'm a very sad panda :(
