Awesome! Thank you!

Yay I said Yay I will Yay.

See? That's interesting. That's got some flair. It's not tediously white, it seems both fanciful and practical and it implies more than hopping in the zeppelin and flying from London to Bournesmouth. There's some conceptual range to the thing beyond just half-hearted, mealy-mouthed Victoriana.

Well and fully approved!

moarpixplzthnx

Hurray! I was eagerly awaiting your thoughts on the finished product. I'll be posting more pix tomorrow, I hope.

Allow me to second the request for moar pix.

What the heck is that gun?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

It's a water gun that I painted. Awesome, eh?

Oh, that looks freaking fantastic!! Also, I LOVE your boots. :D

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Nifty! Love the interesting and original bits like the hair and head wrap.

you'll have to bring the corset with you and tell me what pattern you used, tis smashing!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I'll bring the corset over tomorrow, if you like. It's the Laughing Moon Dore corset pattern (http://www.lafnmoon.com/victunder.htm), with minor alterations for length and hip sizing.

Oh, great! I can't wait to see more photos. I like your garter solution for the gun, and the gloves went perfectly with the outfit.

[bestill.livejournal.com]

P.S. Congrats on winning the judges choice!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for your help with the gloves!!!

Fabooooo, darling!

Did the mesh arm pieces not work out?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I forgot to bring them to the con.

Sigh.

I wanted to ask you about the boots... did you buy them specifically to go with the fabric, or did you already have them?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I bought them on eBay several months ago. I bought them with the idea for a steampunk costume, but didn't have my fabrics decided yet.

[rougewench.livejournal.com]

Fun costume!


D.

Ben (lj kcrisenphoenix) has a couple of you. I will ask him to e-mail them.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Somebody else is friends with him and already directed me to his pics. Thanks, though! I really like the photo of him and me with my leg up on him. =D
