    I am going to be working on a Barbara Gordon costume, so need to work on losing about 25-30lbs I have until August to get it perfect for Cincinnati Comic-Con.

    I have a grim reaper costume I'm working on, as well as a "chainmail" hauberk made entirely from soda can tabs (I didn't drink all of them, I swear). The less of me there is, the fewer tabs I have to use.

    So far I'm at 1000, and am about 1/2 way done.

    hitting Dragon Con in Atlanta Aug 2014. I loved it so much last year (our first time) and I think my husband and I will make this an annual thing. So much to do!

    Updating some wonder woman costumes this year.

    Hahaha! Once you start Dragon*Con you won't stop!
    I'm hoping to get back to the weight I was in my costumed profile pic. Just need to update my Sister Of Battle armor. :)

    I'm also doing an Osgood from the Doctor Who 50th, but that is a FUN costume for my current body type.

    We're going to AmazingCon in Las Vegas this year! Chicago's C2E2 is in our backyard, so of course we went (as Rose Tyler and the 9th incarnation of The Doctor). I'm hoping to drop as much weight as comfortably possible and working on a Catwoman (Injustice style) costume for June... Never been to Vegas or Amazing Con.. Has anyone gone to this con before or have any insight about it?

    Right now I'm only planning on Otakon this year. I came to the strangest realization the other day that I will be at my lowest cosplay weight ever by the time the convention rolls around. That being said I'm pretty much set on Morrigan from Darkstalkers, possibly her kimono from Cross Edge as well, and something Sailor Moon related to be determined later because of the anniversary and also to since Sailor Neptune was my introduction to cosplay as a wee little 13 year old.
  • At the moment, the cons still left to go for me as of this year are colossal, which is coming up way fast for me, even though I'm not sure what I'm going to wear. Going to have to go back through my old stuff and pick something. I'm also going to be at Youmacon come November, but that should be it for me on the con circuit for the rest of this year.

    I'm in Texas, so I've got a lot of cons available to me!

    Akon (already done) - went as Videl & Ada Wong
    San Japan (Late July) - Ada Wong again & Lara Croft from the Anniversary Game
    -- But I'm mostly going to be in the Maid Cafe for this one
    Onicon (Halloween weekend) - Cheshire Cat & Lara again possibly
    Ikkicon (First week of January) - Psylocke & ______

    I've got a billion cosplays I want to do. Totally unfair

    Chun Li (regular & SF4 alternate black dress)
    Lust FMA
    Cheetara
    the list goes on...

    I'm going to animeNEXT in Somerset, NJ in June with a friend! I'm hoping to cosplay Aoba Seragaki from DRAMAtical Murder and I was going to cosplay Princess Sadie from Princess Princess but she's a larger girl and Aoba is a smaller guy so I'm conflicted haha! I want to lose weight for Aoba so I guess I'm not going as Princess Sadie. I'm hoping to be able to lose 20 pounds by March so I'll be working my a** off!!

    I went to AnimeNEXT in Somerset, NJ in June as Valentines' Day!Aoba! I lost 28 pounds for him~ I'm going as Noiz, Aoba, and (hopefully) Hanji to Otakon in Baltimore, MD!
