People make money doing that?
Aug. 28th, 2004 11:56 amYou know, one of these days I assume someone is going to find the Dolle Griet website and say "people actually make money making larp clothing? What is this world coming to?!". But then again, the weirdest website I ever found was the homepage of a balloon fetishist.
This all ofcourse in proper context with PvP Online's recent comic storyline about Live Roleplay, and it being displayed as a freakshow, sort of.
Meanwhile, I did finish my blouse for Sasara, it's Grandma-to-the-top. I still need to see how I'm going to play her. I mean, a forgetful mage is fun, but I think I might have my periods of sternness.
The costume is now finished, next up is the staff. The booklets are done too, for as far as I'm concerned, I'll write my spellbook IC, with ink and quill. Gives me something to do after I'm done drinking tea with Kremeche.
Going back to the customing business, there's people out there, mostly artists, who think that clothing is like paint and can just be glued onto the body. Look at a roleplay book and try to imagine how that cloak would be choking you 90% of the time (the remaining 10% of the time you'd be frothing at the mouth, rolling in panic on the floor screaming "Gettitorfme! Gettitorfme!!!"). I say, artists...sheesj. Anyways, sometimes it's hard to make people see that if you have three triangles, a diamond and some leather laces you can not make a costume out if it that would remain fixed on those terribly sensitive places like labia and nipples, when you're bushwhacking around on a larp. Honestly! You're running around flaying your mace and spanking the monkey or whatever, and something that skimpy doesn't even stay put in the bedroom, let alone a larp...
