Hey there,all you guys and girls on the Internets ^^

So, me and my love, the Warrior Poet :iconstormcrow926: are playing around with the idea of going to the New York Rennaisance Faire in August when he comes to visit me. (( Uber excited about this )) We both also want kick-ass fantasy costumes for the event.

Problem is this; I have not one clue on what to make. D:

Well, sort of an idea; orginally I wanted to have giant extendable dragon wings that go to the side but in the tutorial I found they go to the BACK. My concept on the dragon would be this:

- horns that are attached to a large chunky headband, made of paper mache and chicken wire.
- Wings - made of PVC piping, craft foam and shimmery fabric. Probably would be the most costly prop of the entire thing.
- Digigrade feet - Wood, steel attachments, chicken wire and foam for these babies. I would put the "claws" made of foam onto boots so that way it looks like I actually have claws. This wont be a problem if I choose not to make this part.

Right now, I have some ideas for creatures to humanize as well as a fantasy/steampunk version of myself and summer masquerade.

CREATURES - Tell me which ones you'd want to see and/or ideas of your own along with how to possibly make them.

- Dragon, both European and Asian - Phoenix - Kitsune fox spirit - Raven - Faerie (( depending on whether to make it Seelie or Unseelie however))

I have blossoming concepts of all of these options but I am unsure. Also these are some that I may or may not be able to accomplish.

And PLEASE, people, give me some more ideas! I greatly accept and embrace any you may have.

Much love,
Flamingchibi

Your going?! =D
I go every year since it's, like, 45 minutes away.
If I see you I'll be sure to wave.

You stole fizzy lifting drinks! You bumped into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get NOTHING! You lose! Good day, sir! D<

Most likely with my love. Perhaps we could meet up and enjoy together! ^^

Any ideas on the costumes though?

I'm not sure sorry, I dont go in costume.
I suggest keeping it simple though. 'Cause if it's colorful and flashy you'd definitely stand out. =D
