Off Topic / Costume advice please!
« on: November 08, 2012, 04:25:39 PM »
Alrighty :D

So, I am looking into becoming a street performer as a living statue.

I believe I have the pieces themselves picked out, but I am a little torn on color.

For the main parts, I am going with something in the white/cream family.

I am torn on the corset though.

My inspiration wears all white with a gold and ivory mask. (I want to mention that my outfit will look very different, so I will not be stealing their look)

At first I wanted to do gold, but I am concerned that it will blow the look and give it away that I am not a statue.

Now I am leaning towards all white, but with a pattern or texture on the corset.

Ultimately, it would be a white top, white patterned corset, then a white overskirt and a white underskirt, and white hose.

I would like a mask, but I don't know if I want it to be white or gold or what. I know you can have a little color and have it still be a convinceing statue (because I have seen it) but I can not fully wrap my head around why it works in a mask, but not a corset.

(also, we are talking about a colombina style venetian mask)

Finally, I am not sure what to do about my hair. I could tie it back and powder it or straighten and gel the crap out of it, then powder.

I would also paint my face and hands white.

Any ideas, questions, suggestions?

I bought another doll XD

(these are the store pictures, as she has not yet arrived)

http://www.dreamhighstudio.com/uploads/5/4/8/5/5485863/4725158_orig.jpg

I know she is a little odd, but she is so tiny and delicate and

http://www.dreamhighstudio.com/uploads/5/4/8/5/5485863/2017055_orig.jpg

she glows.

How could I refuse :3

and they had a really good promotion going on (free faceup and shipping)

I think I might leave her bald, but I do want a little gossamer something to cover her.

What do y'all think?

Off Topic / My Magical Weekend Out at TRF *pic heavy*
« on: October 30, 2012, 12:20:23 AM »
As some of you know, I was at the Texas Renaissance Festival this weekend!

I had a wonderful time.

I want to list the negative things first so that I can end on a happy note.

First, it was a four hour drive.
Then, I was stuck in a car with a person who has terrible taste in music, sings along, and randomly changes the lyrics to describe whatever he is seeing >.> ( for example, "oh looook... there is a mcDONALDSsssssss, over there, do od do do od...)
Also, it was frigidly cold.
We were, unfortunately, camped next to druggies and drunkards and someone thought it would be great to go out and get a little under-aged drinking in while he could.
Finally, I was walking around in heels for two days straight and managed to dig a hole in one of my toes with my pinkie toenail <.<

AND NOW, TO THE AWESOME

I started the rounds, checking out a few shops and getting a free sample of kettle corn. Now I usually don't care for kettle corn, but this stuff was good!

I wandered over and caught the end of the first adult school of sword by the inimitable Oskar Hasselhoff. He is great. I learned a lot because is funny and informative.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


I made my way back over to the arena and watched the joust.

I watched the very end of a Tartanic show

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


(why yes, those are bagpipe wings :D )

I got pulled into a shoe shop where I was quickly ditched by my companion. I believe the nice looking shoe seller might have taken a liking to me.

I caught the beginning of the parade and took tons of pictures.

After that, I alternated between the school of sword and Cast in Bronze. I donated money to Herr Hasselhoff's fund and got myself a pin that displays the seal of Dresden, Germany and lets all that see it know that I support violence!

(the faint coat of arms in the back is what the pin looks like)

Also, I love the carillon so much. For the 5 o'clock show I sat directly in front of Cyrus and watched the show. It was so great. I bought another CD and he signed it for me.

I walked some more and found myself near one of the most talented performers I have ever had the pleasure of witnessing.

I spent quite a while watching the Marble Jester in action. Or "inaction" I should say. >///< He is so wonderful.

He stands atop a pedestal, unmoving, until someone comes along and drops money in his jar. Then he springs to life.

I tipped him quite a bit and got a video of him interacting with me. I would love to have such an amazing job as that someday.

If you are a man he will bow, then shake your hand.

If you are a woman, he will bow, get you to curtsy, shake your hand, then gently kiss it.

If you are a child, he will wave, shake your hand, and more often than not do a series of illusions involving distorted, elongated, or magically morphing fingers.

Also, if you have a sturdy, straight object with you, he will take it and balance it on his chin.

After that I wandered some more, got my portrait done, and went to see the closing fireworks.

After I made it back to the tent I was in for a chilly night.

The next morning I made a beeline towards the school of sword to see what I would learn. I made the rounds and caught the attention of one of the workers who manned the rides, we talked for a few moments before he had to get back to work. I hope he didn't get in too much trouble, as he told me he shouldn't spend too long talking to any one person.

I saw the end of the 10:30 school of sword and let me tell you, stabbing people in the kidneys will always be funny to me.

I tried to make a habit of passing by the candied almond booths so I could keep collecting free samples.

I watched part of the Clan Tynker show and I can only say that I regret not having a better view. They are great.

I watched the parade and met back up with my coworker.

We watched a "fakespereian" drama and then I headed back over for the 1:30 school of sword and got a seat right near the front. That lesson was the double handed sword followed by rapier and dagger. Afterwards I purchased a copy of his self defense book, "Grab Them by the Crotch and Throw Them Out the Window".

I watched the Cast in Bronze show and bought his DVD at the end. It took the lady selling the CDs a minute to recognize me but she did, and when I got in line to get it signed, Cyrus recognized me right away. When I told him I was flattered he remembered me, he said that he wouldn't forget a pretty girl like me. :D Then he let me take my picture with him.

I caught the fire whip show, which was very impressive, and did *shocking* more wandering.

Walked all the way across the faire and caught the end of the Ded Bob show. Man he is funny!

I scored a front row seat to watch Tartanic and enjoyed myself immensely.

Of course, as it was about that time, I headed back over to see my favorite attraction: The Marble Jester.

^w^

I met a guy that works at Ren Leather. He had gotten off early and enjoyed watching this performer almost as much as I did.

I watched as this amazing performer balanced swords and other oddities.

I got my new friend to take pictures while I tipped the jester (again) and got to watch his talent and grace.

He took the wooden roses I had bought earlier in the day and balanced them as I watched in wonder and awe.

As he was packing his things to go I gave him another tip and he spoke to me for a moment *squeeeeeee*

anyway, after that I walked around for a while longer before catching the fireworks show (with musical accompaniment by the fabulous Tartanic) before heading to the car for the drive home.

I was a little sad. I guess it feels like I am leaving some part of myself behind, if that makes any sense.

All in all I had the most wonderful time and I can hardly wait to go again.

Customs / Renaissance Faire Swap feeler
« on: October 19, 2012, 11:43:13 AM »
I am really thinking that I would like to host a swap, so I am putting this feeler out to see in anyone else likes this theme before I sumbit the idea to the mods.

There could be a couple of options:

A ponysona dressed in renaissance/mdieval clothing. (gypsy, peasant, royalty, scottish etc.)
or
A pony designed from scratch based on that time frame.

(or both, depending on what your preference is)

Sign-ups could start early December and the shipping date be in early March?

What do y'all think?

Customs / Dark Rainglow - Halloween Swap for granate
« on: October 16, 2012, 05:26:46 PM »
I was really excited for this swap as Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year.

I used a MM Windy (I think) as the base and went from there.

She was airbrushed with a base coat of black, and then I sketched the bones in pencil before painting them with acrylics. They were painted over again with a coat of clear glow-in-the-dark and sealed with testors.

Then I rehaired her with streaks of GitD hair inbetween sections of UV reactive hair that is in a pastel rainbow pattern.

Off Topic / Unicyclists?
« on: October 15, 2012, 07:41:35 PM »
Is anyone here a fan of unicycling?

I have wanted one for years (no joke) and I finally got around to buying one. :D

It is a black unicycle with a 20" tire.

I can hardly wait for it to arrive.

Care to share your experiences or thoughts on the matter?

The Dollhouse / FS - Venus *on hold*
« on: October 14, 2012, 11:46:34 AM »
I bought her the other day on impulse and halfway through opening her I realized how much I didn't really care for her.

The top of her box is slightly torn, but she has not been removed from her backing.

I am just asking what I paid for her, plus shipping (so $20 + shipping)

I will debox upon request to save on shipping.

The Dollhouse / BJD sizes and relative ages.
« on: October 14, 2012, 11:07:51 AM »
I have two SD sized dolls (the female is 60cm and the male is currently 65cm, but may get a 69cm body >.>)

I was thinking about getting a Littlefee to be their daughter, but the more I look at it, the more she just looks like a toddler to me. A young toddler. (though I could just be falling out of love with the sculpt)

Now I have to be honest. I am not too terribly fond of small children.

If I were to get an MSD sized doll to be thier child, about what age would he/she appear to be?

The Dollhouse / Dolls with Sleeping Eyes
« on: October 10, 2012, 04:32:29 PM »
How do you deal with dolls like this?

I mean, I understand that any time you photograph a BJD that they technically have the same expression, but you can make it feel different buy the way you place the eyes.

With a sleeping sculpt, no matter the angle, they will always look asleep. Or bored. Or something.

Is getting their eyes opened the only way? Or does one make it a character flaw, like blindness or they don't want to see the "ugliness of the world" or the like?

How do y'all feel about sleeping sculpts?
