Oh, hey, my Valeera box got here (and my wig and ponytail clip too!) I added some poof to the ponytail with a wadded up ball of tissue painted gold, and still have to get some hairspray to keep it there, but that’ll happen soon enough.

Aren’t my wig and hood pretty on my wig head?

Also did a bunch of dremeling of my dagger blades today. I broke one but thankfully I had a few extra. I did some work on the pommels too, attaching one and adding the prongs back that got lost in the casting process because of bubbles. It still glows, yay!

I also roped my roommate into talking some pictures of me wearing my entire costume for the first time. Side note, I’m going to die if I wear this for any more than 6-8 hours. I didn’t realize how heavy and hot something like this gets.

(Yes, all of the green gems glow, I just can’t wire them up by myself, so you don’t get to see them in this picture.)

246 hours down, many hours to go.

Almost there. ( I hope.)
