Hey, I've been meaning to put this up, but haven't had a chance yet. I've got a few pics of my Training House Inara. I did a Making Of blog (some of the links there don't work anymore, fair warning), but here are some pics! First up is one of my archival pics. I do these for my own good, so they show the costume on my form:  There are more of them in my Photobucket Album. Here I am in the costume. I play the violin for a living (hence the username...lol), so I played a bunch of music at the CSTS event in Minneapolis several years ago.  I have made adjustments to the costume so it fits better in the sleeves, but other than that, it's pretty much that. I love wearing this costume, but haven't had a chance to bring it out in several years! |

Very nice.
You are a lovely companion.
Playing the violin adds to the realism of your persona.
Do you have a back story for her?

The research that you've done is excellent and the execution on this project is fantastic.

Thanks, guys! I seriously loved making this costume. I have it in my closet and hope to wear it again soon.
oh, funny story...someone actually asked me at a con why I had put the flower embroidery (actually paint on mine, but embroidery on the original) on the skirt. She said something about it being pretty but it wasn't on the original. I was completely speechless. I had no idea what to say to this person. I eventually said something like, well yes, it's on the costume, I did a bunch of research before making it. But, really...what do you say?!
So funny.

thats funny.. same kinda thing happen to me... I had someone come up to me and say if I wanted to be more accurate I should be wearing the yellow "trouble maker" shirt with my Jayne hat... I was like, well I am sure he still has the hat when the movie Serenity takes place, which is where he wears the yellow shirt.. but this shirt I have on now (talking head) is the one he wore in the EP "the message" the same time he wore the hat.. I've been research Jayne for awhile now...  |

Its funny ( not really ) how people who don't cosplay have plenty to say about the costumes of those that do.
