the geek family prepares for Hal-Con (update)




After a couple of minor miscalculations and re-adjustments, I'm calling the Tusken Raider robe complete. It appears I over-estimated the size of my head and under-estimated the size of my hips. No matter. A few simple alterations and everything was back on track.

My dining room chair is serving as a model for the photo. The effect is basically the same. Just imagine it a little narrower at the top and wider in the centre.

Onward now to the most difficult stage of the project: the head. I do, however, have a back-up plan. If the head doesn't work out, I can wear just the robe, tie my hair back, and call myself Shmi Skywalker. It'll be perfect. As for the rest of the family, they're on their own.

On a completely unrelated note, I've decided to take up running again . . .
