Cosplay shopping and barbeque

[ailsa_chan]

Right, now that the con is over, more costumes need to be made :) I think I've suggested to everyone the plan for a shopping trip / barbeque, so here is the rough plan.

Saturday the 1st of September, meet up in Bristol around 10.30 - 11.00 ish. We should be able to get all those going from Bath in one car, as I know not everyone (or possibly no one) enjoys driving in Bristol. There are also alternatives if no one wants to drive. There are two main places for getting fabric, plus various other Bristol shops as needed. Then, collect everyone and head back to Bath for barbeque (or possibly grilled food if the weather is shit!) at house of lovely. I have lots of sausages and burgers, so between the lot of us we should be able to collate a feast :)

This is an open invitation to anyone, feel free to come along to either part, just let me know.

Also, having seen the Triniy Blood costumes, I want a project. I want to a costume that will require more than anything I have ever done before, but I can take as long as I need to do, because I'm not planning to tie it down to any particular con. Any suggestions?

Although I'm not coming to the con, any chance I can tag along? I need to find some material for making larp kit, and I'm currently down to be in Bath that weekend...

Trinity Blood :)

No, fr rls. There are so many characters and so many amazing outfits. There's a website with artbook scans somewhere, I'll hunt it down for you.

This one?

Ailsa, I'll do Vaclav if you do Noelle. ;P

Which ones are they? My major problem is not having seen the series / read the manga. I prefer to cosplay someone I know. That being said, the pope outfit is awesome.

Noelle is the one in my icon that I did for last year's Amecon. That's the website I meant :)

If any of them interest you, link the pic and I'll tell you who they are and what they're like. Sadly I'm out of the DVDs I burned for people, but the manga is pretty awesome.

Cat and I were going through them at lunchtime yesterday. I like blinged out pope-boy, and one in a blue dress with a funky courset who is apparently a might aligned vampire :)
