yup. It can be expensive but for what you need it shouldn't be, just don't get the really nice stuff ^_^

Sayda · « **Reply #51 on:** August 12, 2008, 02:43:48 pm »

Well, if we've all seen the movie, then we should all know what's going on. But I could always try to bring something else that's good in English. The Miyazaki movies are all good in English in my opinion. They're one of the few Anime's that I don't mind watching without having to read to understand.
That and.. Christian Bale plays Howl. Mmmmm.. Christian Bale voice.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #52 on:** August 12, 2008, 02:48:40 pm »

I have Howl.....does anyone have Princess Mononoke?

Sayda · « **Reply #57 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:02:44 pm »

I have Princess Mononoke, HMC, Kiki, Castle in the Sky, Spirited Away, and I think one other. I also have the Cowboy Bebop movie, which is good in English, and the CardCaptor Sakura movie.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #58 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:04:04 pm »

I really want you to come too. I want to see how you make those amazing costumes

I have never seen the card captor movie o.o

saya-chan14 · « **Reply #59 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:04:40 pm »

i have loveless and sukisho dvd sets

Sayda · « **Reply #60 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:09:42 pm »

:-O Shame on you.
I love CCS. Sakura's so cute! :3

nikkiolie · « **Reply #61 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:10:32 pm »

I love it too. So I think you should bring that. It was always one of my favorite shows ^_^

I need to download them and watch them all

nikkiolie · « **Reply #62 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:15:13 pm »

I was just looking for something to watch while working. I think if sayda brought Mononoke and CCS that should be enough. I have AC and Howl

Sayda · « **Reply #63 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:16:39 pm »

CCS was my first Anime, my sister and I use to play Sailor Scouts vs. Cardcaptors. I had the Clow Cards and a wand. I always won. ~ ~
I can bring those two movies. Anything else we should bring?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #65 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:19:28 pm »

Just stuff to help you make the costume, or in your case style the wig.

Sayda · « **Reply #66 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:28:37 pm »

Nichole does your house have wireless internet? Cause if so I wanted to bring the Dark Ace so I could look up reference pictures in case I run into problems.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #67 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:32:30 pm »

Yeah we do. I'll get my dad to tell me how to let people get on to it though I can never remember how.

Sayda · « **Reply #68 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:42:28 pm »

Sweet deal, yo.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #69 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:50:45 pm »

I can give tips for ab workouts too....as well as others (I have been playing soccer since I was five and gone to the gym for the past 7 years) for those who want to get in shape for their costumes

saya-chan14 · « **Reply #70 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:54:53 pm »

alsome i need to lose weight

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #71 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:56:14 pm »

Nice. I'm working out but I'm always up for more tips. ^_^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #72 on:** August 12, 2008, 04:02:48 pm »

I know a lot of exercises to tone just about anything ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #73 on:** August 12, 2008, 09:27:06 pm »

Yay for getting toned. ^_^

And on the movie front, I know this is a few pages back, but I think the dubbing for Advent Children was very well done. I, too, downloaded the film way before it was released in the US, and I watched the subbed version countless times, heh. I will say I like the subbed version much more, but I'm not gonna knock the dubbed. I love their voices as well, and I don't think any character or personality was lost in the process, but that is just me.

Oh, and I have a ton of Ghibli films if that is what people are in the mood for. It sounds like Sayda has a good set, and I can bring Tonari No Totoro, Pom Pocco, and The Cat Returns (if anyone is interested in those ones). Aaaand lesseee...I've got anime, but who doesn't? lol

saya-chan14 · « **Reply #74 on:** August 12, 2008, 09:30:12 pm »

ive never seen the Japaneses version if Advent Children

Kona-chan · « **Reply #75 on:** August 12, 2008, 10:31:30 pm »

how late does it go to? cuz I get off work at 4:30, so I could show up late (and bring a sewing machine and a serger)

nikkiolie · « **Reply #76 on:** August 12, 2008, 10:43:08 pm »

well you are welcome to come even if everyone else is gone ^_^

Kona-chan · « **Reply #77 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:14:23 pm »

you mean a button-holer? I think my machine does that, I'm just not quite sure how to XD I'll try to figure it out by then
and okie-dokie, I'll head over after work

nikkiolie · « **Reply #78 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:15:55 pm »

yay I would love to have you over. Even if everyone is gone we can still hang out and work on costumes. I know the claw will take all day if not two. I'll have to wait for the paint to dry.

Kona-chan · « **Reply #79 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:17:07 pm »

that darn claw XD
anything else anyone needs my to bring? like certain colors of threads or fabric scraps? just let me know, and I'll check for them

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #80 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:19:20 pm »

Oh yeah, is there anything I could provide? I know some cash for food or something, I've got that, but supply-wise? I just got a new roll of craft foam I can bring and share if anyone would need that. Ummm....and I've got lots of glue sticks, an extra glue gun... most of my supplies are on the prop side of things but if they can be of use I'll gladly bring them. Heck, I'll probably be bringing them for my stuff anyway, heh.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #81 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:20:50 pm »

glue for the glue guns would be great. I have three that we could use. I have four total but one needs the big glue sticks and I only have the small....I'm not even sure how many glue sticks I even have x.x

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #82 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:37:19 pm »

Okay, well I've got a bunch of the regular sized sticks so I will bring those then.

Sayda · « **Reply #83 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:54:51 pm »

I got my wig today! I have something to work on. It'll probably take me all day to finish it. And my fingers get to be sticky with hair product. ~o~

nikkiolie · « **Reply #84 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:56:20 pm »

yay. I can check to see how many I have now ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #85 on:** August 12, 2008, 11:59:53 pm »

I know of the bag I last got, which was 40, I've gone through about half, so I've got approximately 20 left and then I have 7 or 8 more rolling around in the drawer.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #86 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:01:12 am »

I have about 60 mini glue sticks for the hot glue guns. I'm sure I'll get some more when I get paint but if anyone else has them and can bring them that would be great.

Kona-chan · « **Reply #87 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:06:00 am »

I have gold and silver paint if you need that [it's acrylic]

nikkiolie · « **Reply #88 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:07:29 am »

I was going to buy some silver paint of my own. I will need a lot to paint my armor and it will be good to have for touch ups. You are still more than welcome to bring it just in case someone else needs it.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #89 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:09:38 am »

Do you use "real" paint or spray paint, cause I'd be glad to bring the paint I got with me if anyone was interested. I've got silver, metallic gray, banner red, black and some sealant.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #90 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:16:20 am »

I'm going to use real paint. I don't want to deal with spray paint anymore. I like the way real paint goes on anyway ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #91 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:19:04 am »

Ah, okay. I've never tried real paint, but I'm not enough of an artist to even begin with hand painting my stuff. It always looks too saturated and...yeah, I deal well in spray paint, heh. It takes less skill ^_^

Sayda · « **Reply #92 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:19:23 am »

I like the way you go on.

Anyway. If you still need help with your wig Nichole, I'll do yours before I start mine.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #93 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:20:37 am »

*zips lips*

I tend to ramble too often.

But to stay on topic, if I get my wig in time I may bring that with me to see if I can get some advice/help with styling it.

Sayda · « **Reply #94 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:22:16 am »

Who's your wig for?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #95 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:22:57 am »

I would be more than happy to give you advice but I think Sayda would be the best one to ask. And I may end up using the spray paint if I don't like the way it looks on the plastic.

heck I may just buy spray paint because it dries quicker ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #96 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:24:49 am »

The wig is for Azul the Cerulean. And yeah, I trust either of you will know more than I know now, so I know I'd be in good hands, lol.

Sayda · « **Reply #97 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:27:22 am »

Ohhh. Who's that? ~ ~; Someone from FF, right?
And yeah, don't worry, from my experience, I'm pretty good with wigs.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #98 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:28:22 am »

Yeah he is from Dirge of cerberus. The Vincent FF game

its the guy in his avatar

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #99 on:** August 13, 2008, 12:35:31 am »

Yup, the big, blue feller in my avatar.

So if it happens to get here before Thursday, I'll be sure to bring it with me.
