Watch and be Amazed:

Avengers Excitment

Tonight is the Night!! So excited for Avengers. Last night I had my midnight Avengers group over and we watched Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, and Captain America. While we were watching the movies, I made up my own Avengers Trivia to play before the movie. I'll post it tomorrow along with my review of the movie. I came up with 51 questions mostly based off the movies because I know my friends haven't read many if any of the comics. So pumped for the movie and ready to Assemble!

  

Birth of Black Widow

Costume Planning: Steampunk Blackwidow

Black Widow is my favorite superhero. She is a bad ass chick who doesn't care about anyone but herself most of the time. I wish I had a a little Black Widow in me and maybe that's why I like her so much. I decided to start working on a steampunk Black Widow costume for Gencon 2012. Michael Dooney created what they thought a steampunk Black Widow would look like and you can see their other drawings here:http://www.theplatform.info/feedcontent/article/124665

I personally think that this is a little to frilly for my beloved Black Widow. She is all about the sneaky, super spy, ninja stuff, so I decided to go off what I think she would wear. So far I have a lace shrug and black boots that I love:

 

The bolero is from Amazon and the boots are from Alloy. I plan on making my belt from different gold medallions I find. I also plan on finding black leather gloves and making bracelets but instead of bullets, I am going to fill small bottles with different colored liquids and make pockets for them all around my  wrist. 

There is the question of what the rest of the clothing will look like. I am thinking of doing all black leather type clothing. I found an inexpensive pleather corset and black pleather leggings aren't hard to find. I am just a little worried it will be a little too S&M. I am going to make my own hat and will show updates as I work on that. Black Widow usually carries a large gun, so I am going to find a hopefully inexpensive nerf gun and steam punk it up. So excited and I will keep you guys updated.
