kikotei

Had a day off today. Twas great. With the snow in the forcast I decided that as soon as it started to snow, regardless of road conditions, I was not driving the 45 minutes to school. And with the weather it would have been a good 15-30 minutes longer of a ride. >_<

So I slept in and worked on my costume off and on all day between watching Flame of Recca (Mikagami! ::drool::) and all those cheesy civil court shows.

While I didn't get much costume work done, other than some correcting of the collar on the undertunic, I feel accomplished as I didn't have to take the whole tunic apart to fix the collar. It still doesn't look 100% right, but it's better than it was. If I still feel twitchy about it closer to con season and the rest of the costume is done, I'll redo it again.

Now I just have to start thinking of a way to make the pants balloon a bit. Any thoughts readers? I'm thinking quilt batting, but that's quickly deflated by the heat issue. This costume is heavy enough already.
