Well, I've had to do some rethinking about my costumes for this Dragon*Con year. I do have a fair bit of progress on my main costume, The White Witch.
I have the finished Hobbit costume, and the added Katniss hunting costume. That one the shirt is finished except for buttonholes and weathering, all I need is to make the quiver and make the jacket (which won't take long, I just can't afford the leather at the moment. I've also decided to add this one:
Provided I can find the fabric when I'm in Chicago (or online), I don't think it'll be too expensive or take too long to make. Looks like D*C will be a Katniss-a-thon for me!
Which, speaking of Katniss, since starting my facebook group I have a ton of research on all her costumes, so since I'm not updating my website anymore, I made a page here, and hopefully I'll be able to add more information as I compile it. http://rebelshaven.blogspot.com/p/katniss-research.html
Too bad you won't be able to finish your chainmail in time. I had to put my White Witch project on hold too. That costume has so many unique pieces that take a lot of research and time - it's not like an ordinary sewing project. Have you come up with any ideas for the wand? They did make a replica at one point (and it looked really good) but since it's no longer produced, any that are floating around out there will come at a premium.
