RIMG: Oh? Did you try my "Broadside"? It did a pretty good job of making me forget, But I think Styx Water should have a different feel to it... I'll get started soonish.
I'll get you updated when I've had time to play, New Years should be fun.

Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."

I should go as the Blind God, haha...sure, it's not Greek, but it is from my favorite books ;D (Heroes Die and Blade of Tyshalle). Of course, I have no earthly idea how I'd pull that one off. Hephaestus was always my favorite, but I don't think I'm keen on going as him (and it looks as though our dear Tristan has his eyes looking thusly).

I'll just look to find which Greek god most closely resembles the Blind God...could be a tall order, though, but it could be fun.

-edit- i'm down with a drink with a name as cool as styx...i've been thinking of going as Charon. Not a god, but pretty flippin' sweet nonetheless.

You are going to have to PM me and remind me how to make it, I am not sure if I was sober and I definitely don't remember the recipe.

Good luck on the Styx water too. I think it needs a purpleish color, maybe some Chambord?

ok, so frim yess's and no's?

Little Albatross - Hecate
Hells kitten - aphrodite
Tristan -Haiphestos
RIMG - Hypnos
Mai - ? (I still think you'd make a wonderful Gaia, then you can queen it over all the rest of us)

Theres should be plenty of idea coming up, i think we agree'd to stick to greek clothing. One think i was going to do was work out and post instructions on how to make simple tunics with braid edges - either out of flat or crinkle fabric (the greeks did have crinkle fabric) that the drapery can be worn over, or for the more confident theres just the chiton and what not.

but i'll get on to that at some point.

I spent the weekend doodling designs for a whole carnivale of gods - with all these vetnetian masque styles and touches of modern stuf, even punk hairdo's and stuff - but i looked at them afterwards and realised they went straight against Serenity's 'simple and easy' idea.

ah well.

I will be any god in which my Jayne hat will be considered 'proper attire'.

I'm hoping to go next year and if I do, you can count me in on this.

Hey, we can go wild and crazy if you want to. I just didn't want to freak people out by being complicated. Any guy can take a piece of cloth and make a toga and wear sandals.

I've been thinking about Artemis and I've decided I want to wear a pale blue or aqua chiton, that fastens at the shoulders and upper arms, but then falls open. Silver trimmings. And I want silver sandals, if I can find them, and a bow and quiver. And, maybe one of those bracelets that you wear on your upper arm. Silver and blue and a shiny, cuz I'm the goddess of the moon and all. And of course, some sort of silver crown thingy in my hair.

What do you think?


Oh, and I'm still trying to convince cozen to be Hermes, so put him down as a maybe!

Seryn, a firm yes for me as Hephaestus. Do we know when and where for these costumes yet?
I guess that means I need to start looking into this some more...
