Finally Getting One of My Holy Grails

[Daphnie-Duck]

Hiyas, sisters! I'm really excited about this here. I finally decided to go ahead and shell out the cash to get one of my most wanted girly items. Check it out...

Hopefully it will arrive in time for me to be able to wear it to The Vogue over in Seattle when I'm over that way in early October.

Next, I need to get a figure skating dress (another grail of mine), and finally comission a costume like Boy George's girls in Karma Chameleon wore... http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y129/Scarletdown/Misc-Stuff/Karma-Chameleon.jpg

OMG You are using the name I was going to use here "Daphnie-Duck", I'm a huge fan of that wise guy duck (Daffy). And to top it off the B G girls outfits are my fave as well. I have always loved the chorus line or bar-girl look from the 1880's.

Very nice but from China
They did have some other interesting thing too

Wow, that Sailor Moon cosplay outfit is very hot!

I dressed up as a sailor girl for a recent convention. My friends loved it, but it wasn't anywhere as good quality as that outfit you just showed.

Make sure you share some pictures for us!!! Mmmkay? :)

Well, in my 1:6 scale figure photo stories, Daphnie is a feisty young apprentice (and pet sister) to her wizardly brother. Here's a couple shots of her:

(That pink "bunny suit" that Tahoe is wearing in the third picture is another item I would love to have custom made in 1:1 scale.)

Daphnie is one of my top favorite characters in my cast.

And the Duck portion of her name is because Daphnie is very fond of ducks, especially Daisy. :D

I'm not too bothered about them being based in China, since the seller has an excellent feedback rating, has been very good on the communication, and apparently has a fairly quick turn around time.

If I end up as pleased with this dress as I suspect I will be, I will definitely be ordering from her again (perhaps commissioning a Sailor Mercury costume, once I figure out how to dye this blonde wig I have blue.)

Surprisingly, it arrived today at the post office, registered mail. I tried it on real briefly a few minutes ago out back behind the blackberry bushes, and it's a perfect fit.

If my roommate goes to bed early tonight, I'll bring it in out of the car and take a few pics of myself wearing this. For now, I'll probably go with the short blonde wig instead of the Xena wig, since I still need to give that one a brushing and a haircut.

I can definitely and with total confidence recommend this seller. She does some fine work, and despite being based in China, she is quick to ship.

I also let her know that I would be referring others to her and would most likely be buying again from her (most likely next summer, a Sailor Mercury costume next time, like Daphnie is wearing in my avatar picture.) :happy:
