Title: Anouther new girl sayin hi
Post by: darkerlight on November 22, 2008, 08:51:10 AM
Hello CCG  :) my name is Kristin, I'm 27 and a bit shy. I've seen you guys in the rose festival before and most recently at Orycon. I'm chair of M.E.W.Con so until thats over I won't be braving this new territory of costuming but anyway, I'm a big fan  of the Star Wars universe and have been for a long time. Nice to meet you! -waves-

Hi Kristin.... that is me and a couple of my associates hosting that table. Did we talk at all, or did you just grab one of our business cards?

At any rate, we are there all weekend. Please stop by again and chat with us. Thanks for checking us out!

Welcome.  Don't mind the mess, the maid is out.  Tavrik doesn't pick up after himself and Quick2 is kind of lazy.  I don't know where I am going with this so I will end it now. :roll: :roll: :wink: :wink: :lol: :shock:

Welcome!

and if you haven't guessed by the last few posts, we're not shy around here so don't feel you have to be either, we take everyone as they are...well for the most part but you already met Bill so we don't have to explain about him... :mrgreen:

Well, see when we invaded and occupied Cloud City, we incorporated their janitorial staff. We just give them the title of maid in order for them to have a better outlook on life while they serve us Imperials!  :mrgreen:

Yeah, Matt, here was the shy, quiet one who actually manned his post at the table. That Scout over there could only be seen if certain females happened to have graced the room!  :P

Hey!  I'm Naveed's wife, Beth.  What part of Beaverton are you from?  We are both planning to get our "armor" (costume for me) around February.  I like the idea of an armor party!  PM me or my husband and we can set something up!  Welcome!!!

Well this is how my armor parties end up :D

i dom't think I've had an armor party at my house where i did much of anything.... other thn rock out!
Title: Re: Anouther new girl sayin hi
Post by: JadesFire on December 04, 2008, 05:31:43 AM
Hence the idea that in order to get something done at Paul's armor parties you basically have most of it done before you get there, and get there early before everyone starts playing rock band... finish your project then rawk out!

I think I am probably the only one who does NOT succumb to the temptations of Rock Band when I am at one of Paul's Rockband, err.... I mean Armor Party sessions.

Either that means I have an iron will, or I am just not into Rockband..... hmmmm.

How else could you pretend that for a few moments in your life, you truly ARE better than Gene Simmons?!

Maybe by then I will find clearer pictures of the royal guards' garments under the massive hide everything cloaks... and hopefully not dye everything in my wardrobe red trying to match that exceedingly bright shade.

Darkerlight:

For all things Royal Guard, I would recommend that you head on over to Forcepike.net. They have a website and message board. I am also on that forum and have a few friends (Ang, Darth Skellington, Luscious Talvionne) there that really know what they are talking about. They can definitely point you in the right direction. Those are the three that I would trust the most. Between them there is a lot of good information to be gleaned... and it doesn't hurt that two of the three are good friends of mine!

You can find me on that forum with the same screen name I have here.

Small world! -waves- Hi Trumby, wait... your.... I know who you are! yes... I think... your FMA Greed! right?! 

For fans of anime that are also fans of the dark side I guess this is a rather short and logical step from full cosplay ;) It looks like it'll at least take the same amount of time/money/dedication to detail... Good to see or at least text a familiar face.

@Bill

Thanks :D I will head over there.

-edit- headed over there, waiting for my account to be activated.

Yep! That's me!  And I definitely agree..though this is definitely going to cost more money and attention to detail than cosplay, at least for me it has. Already spent more on my Snowtrooper than 3 of my cosplays combined :P

My apologies, LuCIOUS!  :mrgreen:

Bill Nye, the science guy??? Oh, man, now would you do me wrong like that. What, do you think I am some sort of smartie or something??? Sheesh!!!

Maybe, one of these days I will make it back down to Texas. I've been there a couple of times. It is always a treat down there.
