Contober Progress

Today is the first day of Contober, and the first con looming this Friday, I thought I’d share some of my progress (or lack thereof) here. Beetlejuice is on schedule to make it to NYCC. Poison Ivy may also make it, *crosses fingers*, and Wicked is pretty much in the bag.

(But that was a hunter-gatherer cosplay so it doens’t really count.)
