anthimeriaBack from Day Two! Had a quick swing around the vendor halls, with ALL THE SHINY.
Since the Actual Costume I want to make eventually (as opposed to stuff I already own compiled in a steampunky way) is a Skywatch Warden's costume, most of which I will have to make myself to get it to look right, there is a limited amount I can buy. But accessories are one of those things, and if I can find The Perfect goggles and/or pocket watch, then THEY WILL BE MINE. But because of the character-costume aspect, they have to be perfect--heck, even if it weren't, I'm making a costume in a maker's genre, I want it to be right. So if I can find those things, YAY! If not, I attended a panel that was basically a list of all the places in the area to get good cheap stuff with which to make steampunky things.
Hmm. While I can probably make goggles, a pocket watch may be beyond me. I shall have to consider that . . .
On to sleep and Sunday.
(PS, if anyone wants me to post the List of Places to Find Stuff, let me know!)
