As much as I like seeing the view count go up I'd be much happier seeing the post count go up in conjunction with the view count.

Happy gorram new year, (albeit 40 minutes early on my end) from me and mine.


If all goes well (there's always a possibility it won't) at the end of this freelance work I'm looking at perhaps a couple thousand coming my way.

Bump. Been busy with work so very little progress with the face masks and the pistols.....Don't even know if and when I'll be paid...still.

I'll probably know when I'll be paid when the work is done.

Rakzu

I'm interested! This depends on the date/time for me, though. I'd love to come in costume!

Rodney_Pheonix

I'm waiting for more definitive times for the other gatherings before I set a definitive time, I don't want to schedule it and find out there's conflicts with some of the gatherings I want to go to and others would want to go to.

Whelp, got my mitts on the Nerf Mavericks.... not exactly what I was hoping for as they have a tendency to misfire....

It'ssssss PAAAAYDAAAAAYYY!!!

Yay for the shiny. Anywho 1,600 someodd just came my way with about 2000 more promised.. though most of it's been locked up already in school payments and stuff like that, I plan to use 100-200 for a new guitar, and some more for Fanime related stuff.

Bump.

Got a guitar, once I restore it I plan to learn how to play Serenity (as well as Nico Nico Douga Medley) and hopefully I'll have mastered it by Fanime.

Busy with freelance work again so I haven't had a chance to make much progress with the face masks.


Guitar is also at a standstill. According to a worker at Guitar Center the bridge has a high chance of snapping off, and so I probably shouldn't actually tighten the strings to full tension.
Looking closely, I have to concur... so I'm probably just going to...I dunno probably restore it and sell it to the guy who gave it to me.

Persephone

Possibly a Zoe.

Will need someone to teach her how to play Texas Hold Em.

Rodney_Pheonix

I suppose I could teach a bit about Texas Hold'Em prior to the actual match.


Also, 0 progress on the face shields thus far, between several projects for school, and some of my gear for a backcountry trip into the mountains for this weekend, scheduled to be delivered next Wednesday I'm scrambling to get things done.


How does everyone feel about kicking off this Shindig on Saturday around Eight or nine in the morning ish?

Woot. More income.

Little progress towards the face masks. I plan to hit Home Depot for materials today though.....wonder if I can find what I'm looking for at a paintball supply shop... hell I could get away with cheapo clear plastic face shields, and then use them as their intended purpose when grinding metal...hmmm...decisions...

I've begun the planning stages of building a Cosplayable replica of A Callahan Fullbore Autolock. Since I can't find a moderately priced Saiga-12 (replica or otherwise) I'm going to go with a cheap AK-47 airsoft as the base to constuct mine. Granted since this is a large project it won't be ready for this years Fanime, probably 2011 is not later cons.

Also, between the liabilities, and other issues like my being unable to create a proper face shield and the nerf guns liking to misfire a lot the duels are hence put on hold unless I can work out some problems for the face masks, and aqcuire a simpler set of single shot nerf guns.

Swizzlstik Cosplay

Is there going to be a gathering/group meeting for Fanime 2010? I'm finishing up my Kaylee cosplay and if he can, I want to get my boyfriend to do Jayne.
The only thing constant in life is that life is constantly changing.

Rodney_Pheonix

Shiny. I guess if people want to show up yes there will be a get-together. I wouldn't call it a gathering per-say.

I'll bring down a couple decks of cards and my set of chips if people want to play Texas Hold'em.



Nerf Update:

On the shots I've bothered to keep track of on a notepad there's about a 30% success rate on them firing, the other 70% is all misfires.

Seems this is likely to go about as well as the Battle for Serenity Valley went for the browncoats...
