It's been a while since my last update.  Thanks again for all the wonderful support when one of my Heather costume photos became a DD late last month. It was a tremendous honour!

Anime North is just 4 weeks away.  Time is really flying! :3 Time flying isn't so bad this year since I'm not making any crazy costumes like Shinku or Saki last year. I was "destroying" my purchased vintage Splicer dress yesterday. I had to modify my dress to get it to fit. The fit is still not perfect, but it's good enough. The dress certainly looks lived in. My friend Adrien helped me work on my cat mask which I finished up a couple of weeks ago. I used a plastic mask base, but added clay mache and gold leaf for the detail work. It looks really cool. :3 I'm really looking forward to the debut of the costume at AN. It'll be cool to be a part of a big Splicer group!

I picked up my Sailor Mercury costume from Ammie on Saturday. I picked up Mars and Venus for my friends Pan and Sakura too. I'm really looking forward to our Sailor Moon group. Now I'm just waiting for my wig and I'll be good to go.

Ammie made me a new necktie for my Integra costume so I would match her Alucard. It looks like I'll be part of a big Hellsing group on Saturday night of the con. I got a new wig for the costume as well. I first Cosplayed Integral a few years ago. The costume is mostly closet clothing and an old black suit jacket that was my little brother's. XD The costume may not be the best, but I'm still excited to re-wear it for the group. We'll have Seras, Pip, Father Anderson, Integra and Alucard. Hellsing is one of my favourite Anime so it's a little dream come true to be part of a Hellsing group. (^^)

I'm still not quite sure what other costumes to bring. I might bring my Halloween dress to wear for a bit. I'm also considering what Resident Evil costume to bring for a Resident Evil photoshoot on Saturday afternoon. I'm deciding between Sherry, Ashley and Nurse Lolita Rebecca. I don't know, maybe I should do a poll. XD I'm somewhat leaning towards Sherry or Ashley since they're pretty easy to pack, simple costumes and they're more recognizable. I'm not sure yet though. Suggestions?

I'll post again just before AN with my final list of costume plans. :3
