#badwolfcosplay

For  Halloween at work  I wore my  Bad Wolf / Moment costume and this was just a picture  I took in the back room on my break.  One of the other baristas is a big Whovian and brought in this half tasty treats to share. Said Whovian, whose nickname is KIWI, wore her Tenth  Doctor  dress. I will have to post the picture of us when  I find it. I am only sharing this photo because  I know the boots are very particular in this outfit. I think  I bought mine online from American Eagle while on clearance. It was amusing to read the reviews before I bought them because most of the customers complained about how they were too slouchy and they kept flopping over. Meanwhile in my head I read that and thought I hit the jackpot because that is what her boots do on the episode...  

SO  I have quickly realized that  I am not good at the whole internet thing let alone the tumblr thing…

When I originally tried to post some of my cosplay photos I could not figure out how to get my photos loaded into the actual text post because I wanted to add a description or explanation of what  I created.  So for the time being  I have given up on trying to combine the two. Until I figure out how to do that  I will just post my words and thoughts first and then the picture  I am referring to imidiately after it so that it shows up directly above it. 

Above  you will see a selfie I took on the car rideover to NYCC. I normally don’t do selfies, but since I actually had my hair done and makeup on  (usually I don’t do either) I thought it was justified. And I’m not going to lie, but I thought I looked hot. I am a pretty simple girl on a daily basis when it comes to fashion and general appearance so it says a lot that I am happy that I did a selfie…

 So  I know  I created this almost a year ago to keep track of my progress of creating the  Bad  Wolf / The  Moment cosplay for  NYCC in 2014.  Long story short, life got busy and  I forgot the password to this account since  I am normally not on Tumblr.  I'm a  PINaholic and not afraid to admit it.  Now that  I have finally gotten some of my life together,  I have made a new password and am ready to update what  I did for my last  ComiCon. 

Unfortunately, I was not able to make the box to carry around with me but  I did sew my own dress and get most of the jewelry and accessories right.  I took as many process photos as  I could and a few on the show floor, but no professional photo shoots. Fingers crossed for next year though!

 Since  I have a background in carpentry, I am determined to make the box from scratch.  After  I got home from work today  I put together the 4 main sides basically making a prism.  My goal is to make the bottom and top strong enough to sit on because even though it's not a chair and the most dangerous weapon in the galaxy WHY CAN'T IT BE BOTH????  I would also like to make of the 6 sides open on a hinge that way  I can store my phone, wallet, merch, etc. while walking around with just the Galaxy  Eater and not a backpack slung over my shoulder.

 Pictures soon to come.  I promise this time!
