Malfoy World Cup
While we're gearing up now for Terminus in Chicago in a couple of weeks, I thought I'd post some more fun photos taken at Portus, the debut of a new look for us, some Deatheater fun, with two more Malfoy costume additions in the works, but for next year, you can't rush quality, and we have a grand plan *steeples fingers*. Anyway, the whole collection is posted on my journal and in my gallery.

The Deatheaters were marching to a cell phone chorus of The Imperial March, and the DeathEater masques were made by [info]dixiebell12, who came to the rescue when I ran out of time, what with work, life and all, and they are keepers. They were inspired by the workshop on here, by [info]jkg_vader. Hey, even Deatheaters have to have a little fun. ;-) The [info]droxy as the Dark Lord pic is credited to tapestrymlp.

bella fun
With Terminus fast approaching, I am scrambling to get my costumes ready for the big week! As I don't have limitless funds with which to provide for myself a movie-accurate wardrobe, I'm making do with what I can find at thrift shops and what my sewing machine can dole out. As I've yet to acquire a Slytherin school tie, I am also trying my options out on that end. A dear friend (and Gryffindor) mailed me a striped tie that she thought might suffice, so I thought I would throw on what I have so far and see what it looked like. Too juvenile? Too... Muggle? Just wrong? Well, I thought I would let you lot help me decide!

Those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends )

Posted also to my personal journal, and to the revel_terminus community. Thanks!

draco bw
So I want to buy a Slytherin PoA jumper. In case anyone of you guys wanna sell one, please tell me! :D

I was looking through the memories and found some links. The best price has Whimsic Alley, so I sent them an email asking about international shipping rates, but they haven't answered yet. Do they always take that long to answer? I sent the message 5 days ago :C

Did anyone from Europe ever order from them? How long did delivery take and how much was shipping?
Hope you guys can help me <33

Went looking for the IMAX trailer, which is actually a teaser, but found a few featurettes, one of which shows some nice details of the new Quidditch pads.

yule ball2
Years ago I made my husband and I Yule Ball Krum and Hermione costumes for the premiere of GOF, but I was never pleased with them and their inaccuracies, so I made new ones for us.

We'll be wearing them to the Yule Ball at D*C; hope to see you all there! :)

Ginny Weasley - Gryffindor Chaser
Hello all. I'm searching for an image that I used to have on my other laptop which got stolen over Christmas. I taught some friends in my area how to play Quidditch based off of the wonderful conventions I'd been to. They loved it so much, as did their 11 year old son, that for his birthday, he's getting at least 20 of his athletic friends together to play a full day of quidditch with different teams set up.

Now, they are wanting to create tshirts for all of the players and each team. They wanted to know what the actual numbers were for each position like in the movies. Now, I know I had a very clear high res picture of the Gryffindor team in the Hospital wing, I believe in the 3rd movie, where you can see nearly all of the numbers. I know the seekers are #7, but I can't figure out what the rest were. I also have to have the picture to show them so that they can compare it to what they want to do.

If anyone can fill me in on the numbering system, as well as has a saved version or a link to the picture, I'd GREATLY appreciate it! Arigato!
17th-Jul-2008 03:03 pm - Uniform: socks vs. tights
No one ever suspects the Hufflepuff
I'm putting the finishing touches on my Hufflepuff uniform and I can't seem to decide which to use, tights or socks. I was hoping to hear what everyone else thinks on this choice. Thanks!
