Johanna's Costume Gallery, Such As It Is

If you're looking for LARP costume advice, or just general quick-n-dirty costume tips, I suggest you take a look here and for costume supplies, look here.

 



New Battlestar Galactica Officer's Uniform (larp event 2006) One day, I'll get around to uploading some better photos although, as of 2008, I'm on the verge of re-making the costume, entirely...

Read the costume diary for construction tips



Commodore Franky Cook (Sky Captain And The World of Tomorrow) (BayCon 2005)

Read the costume diary for construction tips.



"Water" - Part of a three-person costume concept, personifying the Elven rings of power in JRR Tolkein's
Lord of the Rings. (SiliCon 2005)
The entire group.



An Avalonian sea captain (7th Sea) - created for a live-action RPG. (ConQuest 2003)

Read the costume diary for this costume
and that of a Vodacce Fate Witch.


 
Rebecca Fogg (The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne), quick-change dress and "action corset". I could strip out of the dress in five seconds, I'll have you know - not bad for a gal without an editing crew on hand! Don't mind that my wig was slipping off, it had been a long day... ;) (BayCon 2006)

Click on any of the small pix, above, to see a much larger version of same.


Girl Genius' Von Pinn, BayCon 2007
(with BH's fabulous Duke, obviously!)

And another of Von Pinn.
(One of Nature's blonds, I ain't.)

A multiplicity of Doctors - and a Dalek. (SiliCon, 2007)
(I'm the one in the skirt. There's a long, silly story behind the costume)

I can't resist sharing this shot...
It's just about the best picture taken of me in recent memory. :)
 
Another one I can't resist. Sorry!

Romana I's Androids of Tara rig, at Chicago TARDIS 2008

Even the fabric folk can cosplay! Another pic of the rig and me luvvin' it up with a fellow fan's fabric friend at Chicago TARDIS 2008. So what if it doesn't really show off my costume? ;) 

 
Captain Katherine "Kat" Smith of the Time Agency
(formerly "Generic Time Agent).

Honestly, I only made the corset in this ensemble, but then it all came together as a mad 1980s militaria thing. She was stuck in 1983 - 84 for seven years, you see...

(thanks to Chris E. for the photo)

Mark II of the Femmy Ten costume - how could I NOT use blue-pinstriped velveteen after I stumbled across it at my fabric store?


(and thanks to stever for making me look at least 3" taller than I am!)



Another one of those in-joke costumes that requires a lot of explanation. Suffice it to say that when Lucy Saxon shot her husband, 'tis my personal fanon that the brain-swap had already occurred. (aka "Homage to every single Master costume, evar. Even longer story...")
