Gaaaaaah! I have some SeRiOuS gaming withdrawal symptoms.. I miss playing videogames sooooo much! x( I just haven’t had the time cuz I went all in with the cosplay… witch has been alot of fun too but holy crap do I miss gaming! The last game I played was mass effect 2, that was like ages ago! Or at least like 2 months. I even dream about games! Last night I dreamt I was a tetris block (what does that even mean?? x) )

At least I have games all around me being played I can glance at.. The boyfriend is playing saints row 4 (witch looks awesome btw!) My sister is playing league of legends (streaming btw!) And my dad is playing Assassins Creed 3 (We still live at my dads due to the water damage at our place) And then we have me, building my cosplay. All of us, in the same room, doing our thing! 🙂

I have now made the shoulder thingys, it was hard and they did not really turn out the way I wanted them to… but frankly, with 4 days to go, I can’t really start being picky!

Good and bad news!

Ok, some stuff have happened.. Do you want the good or the bad news first? Let’s go with the bad! So, about 1 -1 1/2 months ago I started to feel a pain in my back, over time it got worse and worse! 2 days ago it got really bad and I had to go to the hospital! 😦 Turned out I had a herniated disc and lumbago! This kind of threatens my cosplaying a bit… : P

But fear not! Here comes the good news! 😀 The doctor gave me aloooooooot of painkillers! x) So I’m not giving up, I’m still gonna finnish the cosplay and try with all my might to make it happen! I’ll be a half drugged khajiit if I have to! Some more good news is that I’ve started to paint all the armor parts!

So here I was making some horns to put on this part…

I had made one and was making another who had to be identical (as close as possible) x) When I was done I realized the other one was missing! :O (duh duh DUH!) I looked EVERYWHERE for like 10 minutes! Then I saw it, being mangled by the mighty dovah-cat kurr! I guess he wanted to help me get that authentic battle worn feeling to my cosplay!

The concert was amazing! What a group of talented souls! I mean WOW! When they played the dragonborn comes I swear my whole body was shivering from the awesomeness! xD I’ll post some videos of it once I get my hands on a computer!

We had a fun day before and after the concert as well! There was a room filled with different consoles and games for people to try!

After the concert there was a geek party and cosplay contest. There was a HUGE Jack from nightmare before christmas! He was maybe 3 times my height xO I’ll show you guys him too when I get to a computer. I bet he won, his cosplay was awesome! The party was cut short though by the firealarm going off and everyone had to evacuate. (It was probably caused by the smoke machines) x) We were all pretty tired so we decided to head on home when that happened, we had about an hour of drivning before we were home so.. But it was a fun “mini-con” and an amazing concert! Now! Back to work! Only 17 days until gameX! :O

Today is a great day! And I’m gonna tell you why! We are
going to a town about an hour from ours to attend a video game
inspired day filled with gaming, pixle art workshop, lectures about
games, a symphony orchestra called SCORE is gonna play some awesome
music and later a cosplay contest and geek party at a pub! These
kinds of things hardly EVER happens around here so of course we’re
going! ^^ I even dusted off my old assassins creed 2 cosplay for
the occation! Or at least parts of it! (The hood and the belt) So
I’m gonna be sort of an “casual assassin” ^^ I’ll post more later!
