Clammed Wings

Just a little place-holder note that this journal's pretty much friend's only now ;D

Two and a bit weeks ago, annie_chan  and I had a vintage-y themed photoshoot with the lovely Sam. I'm a bit late with getting the pics up but uh...better late than ever? Doesn't help when LiveJournal coding keeps butchering itself.




Also, for those not in the devART loop, our Madam Red x Grell Kuroshitsuji shoot can be found here.

Prepare youselves for a spam pic heavy post.

I didn't take many/any pictures, so for more stuff head over to Mon - speaking of which

Also, cosplay.com...generally good when I can work it...not so great when those Amsterdamians start throwing PMs around the place:
Hi,
Beautiful Cosplay, like it very much.
I have a strange question hehe
I'm love female feet really much! Could i ask if you ever wear heels/flats in real life or in cosplay? And..do you wear tights/pantyhose often?
Just a crazy question by a crazy person!
Greets!

And lastly, preview of tonight's Sivi shoot:

See kids! Colours are good!

Edit: Why won't YouTube work?! D:

Mine and Biccy's teacher/lecturer/organiser at RMIT is writing up a paper/presentation on transnational fan culture and is wanting to explore the views of cosplayers in Melbourne. She's put together a short questionnaire and would very much appreciate it if as many Melburnian Cosplayers as possible could fill it out. Comments are screened, and if anyone interested could reply with their e-mail, I'll send the survey to you in an attachment.

In other news eGames Sunday was quite enjoyable. There was plenty of space to move around in, lots of places for photos and tonnes of games to try (Annie and I need a wii-match at Wii Golf to wii-cide who is the wii-sounding wii-nner). The Manifest cosplay come Armageddon cosplay-that-never-got-done finally got done, though only Biccy's put her photos up yet...I think?

More here + here

That Amy-hair made me really realise that I need a hair cut...aside from copius amounts of people saying "Heeey...you're hair's kinda long"...so, shorter hair for Siera sometime (hopefully) soon.

First of all, I think I can only begin with what I will always remember Manifest 2007 to be:

I think that that's about all now...BUT
5hi_tenshi - I'll be kidnapping your (resin) boy sometime soon, kayz? Is it alright to meet you in the city somewheres?

((I got everything working now! =D))

OH EM GEE FUCK! This entry has been the entry from hell DD: (as I'm sure all of you obcessibly refreshing your F-Lists'll know .___.) I was all..."ZOMG IT ISN'T LOADING!" and then everyone's all "ZOMG THERE'S NOTHING THERE" and then Ryo's all "CUT PLZ! DX" and lawl.

I think I'll follow along the lines of angelyukio     ....my photos are just a *teensy* bit late, but here they are regardless, starting with Eli - MNF Shiwoozilla:


( Onto the dolls! )

Siera over and out!

I suppose Minifest, for me, began on Wednesday or something when I bought materials for my mass-of-plaid outfit-of-doom...and then Minifest *really* began on Thursday when I woke up from Golgotha when I began making the outfit....and then I suppose that Minifest really REALLY began when I got to Melbourne Uni around 11:40.

Worst. Intro. EVAR.

But yes, all of Thursday and the not-so-wee small hours of the morning were spent making some weird, wacky and COMPLETELY cracked out outfit. It was pretty comfy, not so attractive, did *NOT* have a matching hat and my small-er petticoat/s is/are completely dead.

This review is also light on photos as my camera was in my coffin box which Lilly spent the better half of the day SITTING on and I really didn't want to disturb her ^^;

So, back on track.
Oh, and before I go. Have a mass-of-(doom)plaid Siera-bunny:

That would be the face that I had for most of the day as it seemed to be a distressed/confused/completely oblivious/ugly/"HUUUUHHH?!!!" Siera day *nods* And on a more serious note.

Myeaah....that outfit needs SRS macro-age (ZOMG OPHELIA HAS INVSBLE SANDWICH HAAANDS!) such as "MAH CHAYNZ R SO PUNKZ LOL" or "NEEDZ MOAR PLAIDZ" or "I kan camfladge in da plaid forst 8D" or "AM I SKOTISH-FRNCH-JAPNZE ENUF 4 U?!!!" or maybe even "I has a plaid ^-^"

Note to self: Never try *ever* to make a full dress + capelet with 2 meres of fabric. By the end of it I'd only enough material to make Lilly a matching bikini.

Photo there's of course taken by Neil, and because this entry has no pictures, I'ma gonna pimp his which you can see here.

For Ryo:

Lower quality version: Here. Lower Lower quality versions here and here. Thanks to Hattie for the better quality video!

Aristocratic zombies for the absolute win. Also for the win: Tranji.
Learn to Dance 'SexyBack'? SexyBack!

And for Torri:


And if there are any macro fans out there who havn't seen this yet, I'd advise it.

ARR! Aie be the fiersome and almighty Cap'n Siera here! Arr!

Um yes...new journal people arr! Pourquoi? Because I missed being an El Gay whore.

But no, this journal shall be 100% wangst free and updated reguarly so that the LJ addicts out there have some fuel for their drug.

I t'was going to make this first post all nice and pirate-y...but I'm too tired right now x_x'

T'has also been created in the middle of my Maniacly Mad Mayhem Sewing Week, or MMMSW, and shall post something else about this in a few minutes which shall remain at the top of this page until Sunday when all shall be finished and completed. =)
