Who said that costumes can only be worn during Halloween? It's a hobby that people have been doing for other events such as contests, conventions, or just for fun. The primary problem people have these days with costuming is lack of experience if they want to make their own outfits.It's true -- making your own costume is a time-consuming exercise. It is also one that requires constant practice. That's why, coming up later this spring, is a three-day costuming workshop! Now New Hampshire residents can come learn tips and tricks on how to sew their own outfits and craft their own props. But it isn't limited to only folks from the Granite State -- bring your friends too!
Definitive dates have yet to be decided, but our location will be in the gymnasium of Concord High School. Tables with sewing machines will be set up in rows along the room so you'll be able to work together with friends and other participants to produce the item that you want. The head presenters will give mini-tutorials directed to the entire group. and we will also be there to guide you along if you need assistance. We will be providing 100 lbs of material for your use though please feel free to bring your own material if you'd like.
There is a $10 participation fee. Any money received will be donated straight to AAC, a yearly convention that is held in Nashua, NH.
We hope to see you there!
Yo Kris, so you gotta tell me, what game is that image from? I honestly thought it was like a Final Fantasy or chrono cross-ish character. What other costumes have you made in the past?
ReplyDeleteOh my god, do you know about Chrono Cross? If so, that's pure awesome right there, man.
ReplyDeleteIt's from Harukanaru Toki no Naka de (I had to look that up to make sure it was right.) I think it's some sort of RPG/dating sim or something. If you're familiar with the Dynasty Warriors games it's made by the same company... though the two are drastically different. :p (Speaking of Dynasty Warriors, my current project is a character from the 3rd game.)
Past costumes, huh? Let's see... for gaming characters I've stuck mainly to RPGs thus far so I have Zelos from Tales of Symphonia, Guy from Tales of the Abyss and Silabus from .hack//G.U.
This is really Great!
ReplyDeleteAre you willing to waive the participation fee for a free ukelele lesson?
ReplyDeleteFor the record, Chrono Cross is THE best rpg on the ps1, there I said it.
ReplyDeleteFF7 owns chrono cross while smoking crack in a police station. There I said it.
ReplyDeleteNot a fan of FF7, sorry Pat. :p I do love me some Chrono Cross and it's definitely my personal favorite on the PS1. And there a lot of good RPGs on the PS1.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what you all are talking about, but am glad to see that you obviously understand each other!
