Beautiful work. Is this the one you're doing for Miracole?

Yes. Miracole fell in love with that Batgirl design and in about a week she'll get to see herself all suited up.
Talisen,
Yea...last year we met in the hall. I believe I was in costume actually.
This year I have booth in the Rue Morgue section. Beside me is Smooth On and we'll be doing lifecasting demonstrations with their silicone BodyDouble all day long for the whole weekend. Maybe you'd like to volunteer and be one of our lifecasting victims while you're there.......
Chavant once again was kind enough to participate by sending clay samples, pubblicity materials and so on. We will heavily be promoting both Chavant Clay and Smooth On products. I think the last show we did was rather successful in that regard.
Just like last time, two of us will be constantly sculpting in our booth and giving people a chance to see and touch the clays in person. Should be a lot of fun and if there is enough time for me to cast up a set of this batgirl armor for the show I'll have that there also. I hope you can stop by and say hey.
I'll keep you all posted on the show. I have my booth number but not at this computer.
David

David, I saw this post awhile ago, on the LOH, and due to technical problems couldn't add a comment. This project inspired me to get a head cast made, and begin my own sculpt for a costume I had been considering for a long time. Beautiful work.
Miracole's committment to costuming is an inspiration as well. Great collaboration. Can't wait to see the finished pics.

Hey there.
We posted at the same time so I didnt see your reply in time.
I'm thrilled to hear that you're giving this stuff a shot. These are rather exciting times for those of us who dig costume making. With Dragon Con and Halloween just around the corner, pretty much all the costume guys are frantically working on all kinds of cool thing. It all makes for great eye candy and certainly proves that costuming is alive and in my opinion at it's highest point of interest to the general public ever.
Go for it man....and have some fun with it....
Yes, Miracole's committment is inspiring. She's got that costuming bug like many of us do and it's all part of a world that's just getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Having fun is the key.
