Hello world~
Updating to let everyone know that I'll probably fall into an abyss or non-existent-ness for about a week, as I'm off to the IoW with my partner for a week and have decided that I need a break from absolutely everything going on in my life. I may be on a couple of times, but don't expect much in the way of comments and such until I return.
In news terms, I am officially going to university! I got my results from my foundation course on monday and I got a distinction. <3 Words can't describe how happy I am, since I went thought so much shit (and pulled about 7 all nighters in the last few weeks of it) to get that grade~
I've also decided to create a Cosplay Blog, which is now up and running here:
monsterteacup.posterous.com/I've uploaded a tutorial on my Loki cosplay armour, in case people are still wanting to see how I made it. That can be found here:
monsterteacup.posterous.com/tu…I intend to do a blog post about once a week (or more if I'm bored over the summer), with all sorts of things like helpful links, tutorials on things I've made, reviews of events and cons, feature posts on those who inspire me, updates about what I'm doing (like photoshoots and what not) and other things~ I'm actually really excited to do it xD I've wanted to have a place where I can spam my thoughts and opinions and experiences when it comes to the cosplay world.
Not so good news, I know I mentioned to a few people I had a potential commission piece for a graphic novel coming up, but I've had to turn it down because the time scale and amount of work necessary wasn't feasible, and with my back still pathetic after all I did to it last month, I don't want to risk breaking myself right before I start my BA. It also didn't really feel right, and there were a lot of elements to the content of it that I wasn't entirely comfortable with (nor was I keen on being paid less than 10% of a comic artist's usual income, as great an opporunity as it could have been.)
Further things, I'm officially confirmed for attending LFCC this year! I shall being doing Roxas on the saturday (and possibly also on the sunday, though I am debating bringing another cosplay still).
Another thing I'm also considering is starting up commissions (both the sewing and drawing kind; I was thinking of making accessories like hats and what-not since I'm pretty good at it, and I can draw pretty much anything anyone wants), but I don't yet know where I'm going with this. If anyone has any interest in it, let me know~ though I'm a bit unorganised in terms of how long things will take and what the costs will be like right now. But I'll sort that out after I come back next week. At least I've finally sorted out paypal and online banking and crap.
Anyway, that's all I've got for you guys right now so I'll bid you good-bye and talk when I come back!
