OMG. HAHAHAHA!! That's awesome. I've been trying to convince my boyfriend to be Papugg (or however you spell it) for years. I gave up and ordered a plush, haha!

I'm making good progress on the swords. Hope to start painting next week.

Bought some metal for my crown, ordered my wig and it's waiting for me to pick it up..

[TJRapper]

Last year was my first anime convention ever and I went as Basil Hawkins and I loved the One Piece photoshoot, so many cool people. This year i managed to convince my friend who went as a Naruto character last year to cosplay with me and we are doing Eustass Kid and Killer after the time skip. *kind of a spoiler* Making his metal arm is gonna be hard but I've got a lot of friends in my anime club that can hopefully help me out.

I've got the thumbs up so I will definitely be going this year~ (hotels booked and everything) I've got all the material and the wig will be coming in the mail sometime this month, so I will definitely be Madame Shyarly~ (now I just got to get sewing...)

[infernochakram]

so i should still be coming, but money is getting really tight so we'll see :S

hoping to do two cosplays this year though, both One Piece! one's obvious :P and one is a secret

also need to come on here more lol

[GoddessDigi]

I've got my wig, tights, and boots. :3
Bringing the sewing machine over tomorrow, so I can get started.~

[Karitsa]

It's great to read all of the progress! I'm glad everyone's costumes are coming along.

I hope you all managed to get your Pre-Registration tickets online. If not, don't forget! There's an attendance cap happening again this year, so I'd hate for anyone to be left behind!!

Serious photoshoot discussion will be happening soon. We'll solidify the time, location, and special events sometime this month. Cheers~

My friends and I will be doing a Thrillerbark theme:

Pre-timeskip Perona - Me (with a hollow hollow ghost)
Bearsy (Kumashi) - Boyfriend
Thrillerbark Usopp - Friend

[Yukinosama]

I usually do Nami but I'm seriously considering Baby 5... for those of you who don't know who that is...READ THE MANGA! lmao <3
(Not the official colours but probably close enough http://shannaro.files.wordpress.com/...88-d5o60wv.png)

[Scathefir3]

My hollow hollow ghost is almost done Cant wait to start the rest of the cosplays http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...52778163_o.jpg

[Kireikage]

@ Yukinosama - It'd be pretty awesome to see Baby 5 there (though Nami's awesome too) hopefully her colours will be out soon ^^

@ Scathefir3 - That Hollow Hollow ghost looks so cute~

I've just started working on Shyarly, I'm finishing up the bead chains tonight then I'm going to try to make a trial test version of the tail on cheap fabric...

[Karitsa]

Sorry for disappearing again! Life's been keeping me busy... *sob*

Anyway, it's finally time to discuss photoshoot details! For those interested in a character list, I'll get one started sometime next month. It seems early to me right now, as most people are still undecided or have a tendency to change their plans! XD

PHOTOSHOOT TIME:
As always, the photoshoot will be held on SATURDAY.

4:00PM was the time chosen last year and I think it worked out quite well! It stopped us all from getting hungry for dinner in the middle of the shoot, haha! Should we make it earlier/later? Thoughts?

PHOTOSHOOT LOCATION:
We had a vote last year between 3 or 4 different spots, but the majority voted for the same location as the year prior. As you all know, our photoshoot is getting bigger and bigger every year, so it's time to say goodbye to our beloved spot in front of the TCC and choose a new location. SUGGESTIONS GO!

PHOTOSHOOT EVENTS:
Someone mentioned singing WE ARE instead of Bink's Sake at the photoshoot this year, which I think is an excellent idea. Most of us know the lyrics by heart (which means no print-outs) and we can sing the shorter "tv-size" version that is only a minute and a half long. What do you guys think?

As always, we will also need some exciting ONE PIECE music to play during the shoot. Who would like to be in charge of this?

SUPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
