Old thread was getting a bit long, so I thought we could use another picture thread. Let's put some more faces with the screen names!

and here is a third costume party shindig, I'm teh pale ghostly looking one showing off my antique victorian corset http://www.angelfire.com/tx4/artcat/browncoatcostumes/DSC04316.JPG

artcat! Nice to see you again! You are lovely and have a lovely family! (and you have amazing hair)
But you know, you really shouldn't say you are pale and ghostly. Have you seen me? I'm sure you have, but I love the camera, so I'll post a couple more pictures before I go to bed.
Here be me, looking a little stressed.



This one, seriously, my skin is whiter than the white shirt I'm wearing acording to the eyedrop tool in photoshop.

And here I'm at my wit's end (like how I get when the site goes down, say) And while my skin doesn't show up as white in the eyedrop, it's still a paler color than the white shirt. Scary, isn't it?



But, you know, working graveyards does mean a lot less sun. I could pass for a vampire, I'm sure (And in fact there are some particularly vampiric pictures a few threads back. Hehe)

Ok, backtracking from the other thread...

babywiththepower, that snake pic just craked me up.

MsG, those lil peanuts of yours are soooo cute! If I ever had lil ones I would NEVER stop taking pics, never.

Dug, those pendants are GORGEOUS! Props to your wife!

Thank you! I would have never known she wasn't yours. Looks just like you, lil cutie. My mom used to be a nanny for a lil boy that looked just like her. Uh, you get soooo attached. He's 9 now. I remember when he was born!

ArtCat81, great pics! I love the Reaver costume. Wow, look at that hair!

PR, awww, I hate graveyard shift. *hands you hot cup of coffee*

Halloween party. I am, naturally, the one in the Jayne hat. I actually dressed up as (kinda) Mal, but I just couldn't go without my hat.

The pompom fell backwards.

Amanda's the one in the "prisoner" costume (that's what the store called it, anyway...), Tisha's the princess, or Galinda from Wicked (hey, we tried), Lance is the army dude, I'm leaning on Lance, and Megan's in the witch costume (without her hat).

We tried to watch Serenity that night, but we all were having too much fun picking on each other.

Found one of me from my wedding. I'm with my friend Kristen. The dress is an empire waist and it was so pretty, but after I got the pics I realized that with my bust being so big having the skirt bell out rght underneath it made me look pregnant...so in case you're wondering..no I"m not:)
EDIT_ MisterG reminded me to mention I'v elost about 70 pounds since this was taken..and sadly the bust has not shrunk even a millimeter...SIGH

ArtCat81, I love the River outfit - very cool. You do have beautiful hair. Your brother's reaver dance is a hoot.

PR, I might be able to match your pale whiteness. I do need to get more pics to post to prove it.

Roxy, you are always too cute!

RIMG, I know you've been waiting for that gorgeous Jayne's hat for awhile. Glad to know it finally arrived. You look stunning, and the two tiny Browncoats are adorable!

Oh, I had a headache due to lack of sleep, so there was my stress. That's a pretty accurate look at how I tend to feel after work anyway, and add the headache and a few other things, and I looked like I was pulling my hair out. I thought it was a decent shot, so I saved it.
Anyway! Roxy, you have a way cute smile MsG, you had a nice wedding dress! I don't think you look at all pregnant
artcat, HK, you are both indeed very pale. I don't have any new pictures due to being at work, but I'll post a few that have already been posted; this is fun!
This is an exaggeration from the flash, but it shows how reflective my skin is


The vamp pic again


And this one, because I like it, and I look all creamy and pale

It was not very good. But it being gone now provides an excuse to get the good stuff. And it's taking me very long to type this. So. Moving right along.

Oh c'mon! I got a scar that nearly mirrors that guy's, how could I not make a comparison picture? I mean, I would have done Erwin Rommel, but... he doesn't have a facial scar, so that wouldn't have made a lick of sense.

Is there any way that you'd be willing to accept this picture as a satire or anything close to that? Or should I not even try?

Nah. You shouldn't even try.
Maybe something less... you know... genocidal would be better fodder for your satire.

How about Alphonse "Scarface" Capone?

You know. Nicked for tax evasion. Died from syphilis in his prison cell. That sort of wacky fun.

(PS--Your scar doesn't look anything like that guy's; your's is nicer by far. At any rate, it's beyond me why you'd want to make a "comparison picture" like that....)

Eh, truthfully, my scar's not all that impressive. Those pictures were taken when it was still an open wound. It's still very noticeably, but nowhere near a giant gash.

Anyways, Skorzeny was an innovator of guerilla warfare. He was acquitted of war crime charges, lived a full life, and died peacefully in Spain under the protection of it's government. I think I'd rather compare myself to him, rather than some guido who died from an STD in prison.

In 1913 congress passed a law taxing all Americans between 1% - 7% of their "lawful" incomes (7% were for anyone making more than $500,000/yr). Prior to that time only 1% of Americans even paid income tax.

Congress deleted "lawful" from the new tax law in 1916, making all income subject to tax... even if it was made illegally (in the government's eyes). The sheeple rejoyced as criminals (and scapegoats) such as Al Capone were jailed for tax evasion. Now the only criminals in the country that were left were the nearly untouchable corporate conglomerates and the equally corrupt and/or corruptable politicians. The FED just continued printing money though so the people could watch their bigscreen TV's and eat their fast food and play their XBoxes and watch reruns of Sex and the City... and so it was that the sheeple remained content and fat and ignorant in their dysfunctional bliss.

By 2023, America was a cashless society and, without any other choices, used only credit cards to make transactions. This gave the sheeple the security of never having to carry around money for anyone to steal and the convenience of never having to wait for that public educated moron to try to count out their change... all the while allowing the big Gov to passively monitor every single transaction that every single person ever made, thereby eliminating all forms of crime and the ability for a guy to just kick back and smoke a fucking blunt.

(And, um, I know plenty of people who relax with a big fing blunt, some to manage untreatable pain like fibromyalgia, and some just for fing fun. And, also? Capone wasn't exactly a "scapegoat." For the tax evasion thing, sure, but he was still a murderer. My great uncle was there at the time. It's not all fiction.)

So are most of my friends, so don't worry, you're not the only combination of hairy and smelly in this world.

But on the subject of taxation, or rather, the entirety of unconstitutional and illegal act perpetrated by our government against it's people, I'm right there with you, my guido friend. America has been slowly digressing in the freedoms and liberties that it boasts so heartily about to other countries ever since the end of the Civil War (and probably before).

Oh, and HellsKitten, I'm sure he was referring to me about the guido comment, even if he clicked to respond to you. He probably just didn't feel like making an entire second response just to call me that, so he snaked it in on the end of what he said to you.

Is it a reinactment group or just for fun?

Sorry girl.... wasn't callin' you a SOB. I was just kiddin with Chris about the guido thing.

It reminded me about an episode of Chris Elliot's "Get a Life" when somebody mentioned a guinea pig and Chris looks right at the camera and says "No offence to our Italian American viewers".....

Sorry bout the rant... these fingers just type on their own some times. Glad you use cash though. I guess when we go to an all credit system (I still stand by that date) I could mow somebodies lawn for some pot

I'll probably be living with the coyotes in the forest by then and growing my own though.

I'm the one in the middle, with the beard. My physique's deteriorated by this point, because I've just been laid up in a hospital bed for a couple months. I was just getting back into MMA at that time, and the tiny bumps and bruises on me are from that.

The battle thing is a competitive medieval-type combat organization. Many people come to role play, others to fight, and some just to party and get wasted. It doesn't really accurately translate to the real weapons that are portrayed, or any real amount of skill. Mostly, as I see it, it's an exercise in situational and expansive awareness, last minute decision making, and much like chess, positioning and very (very) mild strategy. People there talk about using "tactics", but it's laughable to call what they attempt to do by that title.

Mayhap it is.... I just bought a scanner off somebody at work last week, but they left the power cord at home. Hopefully they get it in later this week. If so then I can show you some pics of when I was a young geek. I'm supposed to be getting pics from the Tom Petty/Pearl Jam concert that I went to in July, but here it is November and I still don't have 'em.... I'm going back to Chicago this weekend so we'll see. I'd need a flicker account for my pics if I was as pretty as you, but until I get my chubby ass back in the gym there probably won't be too many new additions.

I do have a music MySpace page now. Just one song on it, (a Foo Fighters remake) but there should be more eventually. I already play it better than I did on Halloween when I recorded it, but I'm too lazy to update it now. Check it out... www.myspace.com/b49teen84

Wow....been a busy weekend, I see!

ArtCat, good to see you in here! Nice corset! I envy you, though, to have that many Browncoats in one place at one time!
I particularly love the shot of you in the green dress in the "woods"!

Ah, Roxy....here to tempt me again, eh? *sigh*

Hey, Shrouded, nice hat!

RIMG, you have GOT to get a Jayne outfit together for D*C! That hat is perfect on you! CallMeSerenity does shiny work, does she not?
And the next generation of Browncoats look adorable!

MSG....wow! I love the dress! And the smile! Did I mention I liked the dress?
70lbs? From where?!?

Ooh, Magda with the Wiggles! You know you have all three of them out-smiled, right?

HK, that's a cute...no, wait...ferocious pic there.

Ahh!! Wombats! Everyone run for your life!

Umm...can I offer my services as photographer for that three-way fight?

CMH, that second pic looks like way too much fun!

CosmicFugitive...thanks for the photos. One question...what is the print behind you?

Engie! Whee!! Not only do you have a pretty smile, you look dead-on as Kaylee! Hey, I remember that parade.

HK, you going back to being a lurker would be bad. I know I am not alone in saying your photos are captivating, wonderful, and beautiful...especially the ones with you in them.
Sorry about the little hangover...rum is bad for that.

And Roxy once again...pretty girl, big gun....*deep sigh*

I'll see if I can find any more that y'all haven't seen yet.

That was my plan, to have a Jayne costume this year. I even might go so far as to grow the goatee, though I hate hate hate hate hate having any hair on my upper lip. I want to do a Browncoat one as well, hopefully looking a bit like Monty.

And yes, she does very shiny work. She said she could make some smaller ones for the boys too. :)

RIMG, good deal! And Monty...yeah, I can see that, too! How many days again?

Alright...I am not sure I have posted this before...this is a suit of armor...small plates stitched to a leather backing; similar to Roman Lorica Squamata. I was supposed to wear this at D*C, but that did nt happen...



One from a Ren Faire in Alabama several years ago...


And in sticking with the Roman armor theme, this is a suit of Lorica Segmentata I built about 8 years ago.

290 days until the Thursday of DragonCon. I guess I could start saving now.

Along the lines of costumes, do you make anything for male Browncoats, and if so, where can I go to view and/or order some ???

290 days...I have a lot of work to do!

RIMG, yes. I won't use this thread as advertisement, but start here:

And if that does not have what you want (Browncoat), email me at tristan71@cableone.net
