| Update like Whoa. |
[Jul. 29th, 2005|10:21 pm] |
We have been wanting to change this journal to a community for quite some time now. Unfortunatly that meant deleating all of our old entries, which was breaking my heart, but was also taking forever!
So we have made a new Community pwcosplay! So please come and join. ^_^
This journal will become an archive and will no longer be updated. Thanks for the memories paperwing. |

But, for today we have some new photos of some older costumes. ^^ I bought myself a new camera so I was anxious to try it out, today Makoto and I headed over to Red Rocks Park to snap a few. It was a bit chilly and we did have to take a brief break to escape a Thunderstorm but I really like how they turned out. ^_^ Enjoy!

Hell has frozen over, paper-wings.org has been updated! Massively overhauled, with enough new costumes to scare the living daylights out of me. And a new layout to boot. :)
Please go check it out!
We solemnly swear to be more fastidious updaters from now on, because uploading 90+ costumes at one time is no fun. Big thanks go to Ringo-chan for her hard work redesigning the gallery!
New members pages will be coming eventually too. And if you'd like us to link your site, please let us know.
love, makoto |

| Hi guys!! Been awhile, hasn't it? |

| [ | mood |
| | excited | ] | I'm sorry. We forget our group journal much more than we should :( All three of us have been terribly busy lately, however, and sometimes we don't even post costume updates in our personal journals.
There are a few new things I should mention, however.
Current convention schedule:
Kamikaze con Houston, Tx. Late March-ish- I will be at this one with Celine! yay!
A-kon, maybe. Dallas, Tx Sometime in June? I'm really debating it. Ringo and Makoto won't be able to make it to that one, and I'm not sure if I really want to go this year. I have a hotel room reserved, but it's easily canceled if I decide it's not going to be worth the parking hassle.
Paper Wings has exciting news! We will be at Anime Expo! (I think!) I am 99% certain I won't be attending, but Ringo and Makoto will be there, along with N-kun, our almost-eager-to-be-abused male cosplay prop. I'll let them fill you in with more details on that later.
Animefest for certain.. Yay for Maaya Sakamoto!! Dallas, Tx Labor day weekend. I love 4 day cons. This one will be just me again.
Nan Desu Con Denver, Colorado.. sometime after animefest. Sorry, I'm really bad with dates and too lazy ATM to look them up. This one will be Ringo, Makoto, and possibly N-kun the amazing.
And that, kiddos, takes us all the way through September, and ends another con season.
The other major news with is is that our poor BBS is gone. Unfortunately, due to security holes in the Ikonboard system, we were unable to safely keep the BBS up and running. It was great when we had it, but to be completely honest, we didn't update that as much as we should, either.. lol. So, hopefully all the BBSers will find the journal and carry on discussions here.
If you're interested in our individual costuming projects, feel free to check out our personal journals. Those are usually updated more often with pictures and whatnot. |

| BBS! |

| | happy | ] | I just wanted to leave a little note to let everyone know that our BBS is back up. You can get there from the main website. :) Ringo and Makoto worked very hard to get everything up and working, so if you get a chance, please come register. Things are quiet now, but we hope to make it an active community again. |

| | tired | ] | Integral Here! Many thanks to those who participated in Iron Cosplay and our Cosplay Round Table events. We saw some very creative costumes at Iron Cosplay. This was also the debut of a new twist on an old game. Judge's Challenge! That's right. For those of you that missed it, our very own Judges took on 3 unsuspecting victims for a round themselves. This threw Ringo, Makoto, and myself into the Judge's seat for a change. It was so tough to decide on a winner, we declared it a tie and decided never to judge again. lol
Personally, I think that the Cosplay Round table discussion went over very well. I would like to say thank you to Jase, Lysaralia, and Khet Tcheba for joining the three of us to discuss costume construction. For those of you who missed it, we went over the creation of a Vash the Stampede costume, as well as our favorite costuming supply shops. (Makoto, how did Starbucks get in there!?!? :D ) Due to the success of this panel, PWC will be running it again at future cons.
The next two conventions on our schedule are: Animefest Nan Desu Kan
Because of the way we're split up, I will be the PWC "rep" at Animefest, and you can expect to see Makoto and Ringo running things in Denver for NDK :) |

| | busy | ] | Hey guys.. A-kon is coming up on us quickly this year! Paper Wings Cosplay is once again hosting the ever-popular Iron Cosplay, in addition to some new stuff! Make sure you come to Iron Cosplay, because we're tossing a few new twists into this game that should be fun for everyone.
We're also hosting a Cosplay Round Table discussion that should be a lot of fun! We're gathering together a small group of costumers to discuss different ways of making the same things. This should benefit newbies and veterans alike, as it gives everyone a chance to hear how other people make their costumes. It may even give you some new ideas on how to do things. :) We are still looking for a few cosplayers for this discussion, so if you are interested, reply here ASAP! Spots for discussion are filling up fast. If you want to participate, and we don't know you that well, it would be great if you can post a website/cosplay.com gallery/cosplaylab member name, so we can get an idea of your work. If you don't make it into the discussion circle, though, don't worry! There should still be plenty of room to watch, and we'll take questions at the end.
If you're into J-rock, we've got a few things popping up there, too. Yours truly (Integral) will be working with the J-music room this year to bring you a VK makeup panel. I'll probably be yanking one or two victims from the audience to mess with, and I'll be going over basic whiteface techniques. If I have time, I'll cover stuff like eyeliners, etc.
Paper Wings will also be attending the EGL fashion show if you just want to chat. (Hey.. it's easier to track us down if you know where we're going to be!)
All three of us are working very hard to get our costumes done in time for the convention. We hope to see you guys there! |

| | watching Powerpuff Girls | ] | Hey all sorry for lack of updates through the group journal. I usually just updated mine but I'll try to be better. XD Just FYI, the BBS should be up again sometime soon. I'll post a link when it is back. In other news Makoto and I went to the local Sci-fi convention last weekend. We even had some new costumes, Femme Fatale and Princess Morbucks from Powerpuff Girls. The images are in my cosplay.com gallery along with pictures of other costumers. I love how diverse and creative the costumes were. The wheels are already churning for next year. ^_^
