All dressed up waiting for my carpool to arrive~

My current viking look and the medieval feast :D


In spite of the weird recipes everything tasted pretty good. I made the bread plates and the far left pie-apple cheese pie- using Tasting History’s recipes on YouTube.

***beware that the recipe in the description is wrong for the bread plate. Video said 2 cups of water, not 2.5. It’s okay as you can add flour until it’s more dough like but it’s annoying. But weirdly that loaf did turn out better than my first so idk…

【Summary】

Actor Lou Yixiao (娄艺潇) plays Wu Zetian, and holds a prayer ceremony under the “Loshena Buddha Statue” in the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang.

The statue of Lusena Buddha was excavated in the third year of Xianheng, Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty (AD 672). Wu Zetian, who was the empress of Li Zhi at the time, she donated 20,000 money to the project, which is equivalent to more than 6 million Yuan (CNY) today in terms of the price of food at that time.

another shot from the wagner house weekend. Im kind of a mess in this photo haha. I wasnt expecting to get photographed at this point in the evening. I’d already had a couple of glasses of champagne and lost a pin or two on my dress. They still made it an excellent shot though! 

Im relatively proud of my dress. Its my first francaise and really my first time trimming something and doing bead work. I think it came out pretty well! There are some things id like to fix eventually though.

In The Long Run Designs did a wonderful job taking photos. They are so talented and got some great group shots as well as did some individual photoshoots. (You can see the amazing photographers there on the right side of the bottom photo in the navy zone front and her sharply dressed husband.) I am so thankful to them for lending their time! Cant wait to get their pictures back! 

I highly recommend checking out their pictures on facebook. Their awesome, and they do a lot of historical portraits and such

Getting put out by my lack of costume content on what is, in theory, a cosplay account. Marat has rearrived at the front my brain now that it’s the New Year so here’s a shot that didn’t make the initial cut from back in early 2013.

In addition to other Prime Shenanigans slated for 2022 projects, I’m also hoping to do another couple of lewks for him. Design notes from the journal as follows:

- Dressed Down Version to include: night-shirt, stockings, literally slippers, print-shop apron, coat on top, head-scarf (tbh, this feels the most accurate).

- National Convention Version to include: frock coat, breeches, (shitty) stockings, waistcoat (marginally decent), proper shoes actually, accessory pistols (probably).

- Print-Shop Version: shirt that’s Obviously Seen Some Shit, waistcoat made of carpet, maybe apron, some form of pants (optional), ink stains, abused coffee mug.

Updates to follow.

I spent all of 2020 hoping to be loved, to be noticed, to be looked at and smiled as if I was the best thing ever in the world. But I wasn’t.
My friend Kelly told me that I deserve to be looked at like the art that I am.

So you know what… WHATEVER, I BECAME ONE OF MY FAVORITE PAINTINGS.

I am a whole ass masterpiece and whoever gets to be my boyfriend/girlfriend is lucky. Just saying.

MAY I PRESENT TO THEE, PRINCE RUPERT OF THE WESTERN KINGDOM!


I first approached the idea by redesigning him completely from the official art, but keep his color palette. To keep with the fairy tale tone of the story, I decided to use the Renaissance as the basis. The costume draws heavy inspiration from the 1490’s Italian Renaissance and the mid-1500’s English Renaissance.

HOW DISNEY USED A REAL MODEL TO DRAW ALICE IN WONDERLAND

Kathryn Beaumont (born 27 June 1938), the actor who voiced both Alice in Disney’s Alice in Wonderland and Wendy in Disney’s Peter Pan, also modeled for the animators. These photos show how much work was put into classical animation at the Disney studio.

Walt Disney chose Beaumont to be the voice of Alice when she was just ten years old. He chose her for the model of Alice. She was named a “Disney Legend” by the Walt Disney Company in 1998.


Made under the supervision of Walt Disney himself (1951), this film and its animation are often regarded as some of the finest work in Disney studio history, despite the lackluster, even hostile, reviews it originally received.

It gained popularity in the 1970’s due to the “drug” culture fandom at the time, it was released in 1974, and then again in 1981.

Today, it is not only considered the best animated film adaptation of Lewis Carrol’s novel but one of Disney’s greatest classics. { 1-10 }
