Fukken do it. * Whiteboard/chalkboard, glasses, writing * As a photographic trick, can we get lots of people moving past at an intersection, with Kurisu cleanly exposed? Combo time-lapse/blur and single-moment * That sort of effect: http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/795838/ * One obvious method is multiple exposures, with Kurisu overlaid on top of all the others * Or what if... you setup the tripod and camera, use small flashes (every 0.5-1.0 seconds) to get the crowd faintly, then move Kurisu in and get one big, clean flash exposure I was on stage!

One in each pack is good (plain black) * Acquired two 3-packs.

I am, however, very flattered), $10 * From [[http://shop.mango.com/AU/p/mango/clothing/shorts/roll-up-hem-short/?id=63330029_02| MNG]], stretch cotton size 40 (yay for international sizes), looks a bit tidier and the material is nicer, $40 * Both could be a bit shorter, should be easy to pull the hem up * Used the MNG shorts and hemmed them up, pulled in leg circumference * '''Completed''' (./) == White belt == * Belt previously used for BRS cosplay is okay, could use a new hole punched, and is lacking a good belt-buckle * Found a webbed friction-hold belt for $5 at Jay Jays. The outside is patterned, but the inside is plain white, so I should be able to trivially invert it for great justice * Buckle is brushed silver, and kinda short. Ideally needs to be longer, but gold at the very least * Yeah, let's spraypaint it gold * '''Completed''' (./) == Tights == Purchase a new pair before travelling. Columbine opaque, 50 denier or so. * Found some Kayser 70 denier opaques. Brown doesn't look as rich as I would've liked, but whatever * '''Completed''' (./) == Boots == Will never find anything quite right, and rather hard to match for appearance. Will use already-owned ankle boots, they look great as they are. * (./) Apply waterproofing before use == Wigs == Oh so many choices, and so many sellers with hopeless photos :/ * '''Acquired, this looks like the better one''' - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250934637378 * 22+0(+?)
