Evali’s Neighborhood

I made Rosalina this year, which is a costume I really enjoy.  It can be pretty uncomfortable having to stand like that all day, but I like the way it turned out.  It was received well, too which is always encouraging.  It was my first time working with crepeback satin, and casting my own gems.  I wore it to Megacon, Jacon, AX and AWA

Jasmine was made around the same time as rosalina, in order to wear to the princess and pirates party at disney where we were harassed by entertainment for looking too good. I didn't wear this to a con.  I made the earrings out of liquid plastic and tried adding stuff into the wig even though it's not exactly as nice as I would like it to be. 
Washu was such a fun costume that I finished this year.  It was an adventure with a difficult wig, but the rest was simple.  I won first place journeyman at otakon, which was very surprising. 
Early Z Bulma was a fun outfit to wear in a dragonball group with friends at otakon.  Very simple, more practice dying wigs. 
Crazy pants bulma! I got around to making this one (kind of), a costume I always wanted to make.  It still needs some serious work to be done on it @.@
I made this bulma-luffy costume for otakon, and I didn't wear it very much lol! it was scary :3 I need to fix the top.

"creamsickle" syaoran from card captor sakura was made for the costume contest at AWA this last year.  We won most accurate, which is awesome.  This one was a big applique costume.  The applique was gradient dyed to look cool, but it made it not stick to the fabric as well!! that sucked.. ;_; so I'll have to fix it up later.  The jacket that syaoran wears still doesn't make sense.  oh well!!

So we had a little Halloween celebration this year, costumes required. The result of that was me dressing up at least 5 people (Gerald, Daryl, Clarissa, Lily and Alex) in random things from my cosplay crap. :D

For laughs, I actually changed my costume 3 times over the duration of the night. The wizard costume was brought by Brian and Laina and featured in a pornographic Wizard porn. I refused to put the beard on my face, considering that I'm not sure exactly how many other people have worn it. Not to mention I was thoroughly amused by an entire new concept of "neck beard".
More pictures of everyone from the night. I think Gerald ended up being a Train Conductor rapist by the end of the night. Clarissa wore my Wizard-chan outfit that I made for the Wizard party. Sosa was the ghost of 1976, with hilariously large eyeholes. Andrea started out as some kawaii elf girl, then changed into Officer Jenny, catching Lily/Mudkip on the stairs of my place. And Alina, Laina, Brian and Nikki were random pirate girl(?), B.B.Hood, Piccolo and Sakura, respectively.

Laina and I had a potions lab, making potions for "Being Not a Slut", "Getting a Smaller Penis", "Becoming Last Attractive", and "Mustache Removal". The ending joke about it all was that I switched out the potions that Laina made over the sink with bizarre-flavored Jones sodas, including Candy Corn, Vampire Berry, Candy Cane and Christmas Tree. Unfortunately, my favorite part of the potion-making session, where Laina asks for my help in developing a potion and I just scream for no good reason at the vial she's holding. D: Still, these videos are pretty pro.
Pictures from various games from the night, including the Potion-Making Session. We also had a Post-It/Name Guessing Game where Lily was ecstatic that she was Bella Swan, and Clarissa was Lestat, which she figured out soon after I told her that her character was really gay. Other activities included "Pumpkin Dick", a Halloween version of Fluffy Bunny (which Carolann destroyed all competition at), and some strange game where we made a huge spiderweb by wrapping yarn around various limbs in a circle.
Decorations/Food from around the house.
