Poison Ivy Costume - Part One

As many of you know through word of mouth, my Halloween costume for 2009 is going to be Poison Ivy. I always make two, just for shits and giggles, so my other one is going to be a Nerd (nothing surprising but I figure I get it out of my system now :D). Well, so far, so good. I'm about 40% through the sewing of the ivy leaves. It's not hard, just incredibly time-consuming. I sew for about 4 hours a night when I can.

This is Adam Hughes sketch I'm modeling my costume after:

(I only wish I had those boobs O_O)

Tomorrow, my hair will be that shade of red. Right now, it's only my bangs, but when we did it, we had no idea it was going to come out a cool looking as it did. I'll update when it's done :) As I will with pictures of the actual bodysuit so you can see the progress.

Once the costume is done, I have a photoshoot planned with The Pixel Geek, my good friend and an amazingly talented photographer... we're already nerd booby buddies. In fact, this blog was his idea so thank him for my random commenting and useless blather ;3

One last little tidbit before I get back to what I'm supposed to be doing...:

Come to think if it...I kind of want to recreate this image now :P
