Then we should try to do a RFers group photo!  That way, everyone gets to meet each other, AND we get a vision for posterity.  ;D

Any thoughts on time?  day?

How about ... Saturday, at least 15 minutes after closing cannon?
Title: Re: Say who is going Sat the final weekend??
Post by: Princess Alice on July 24, 2009, 08:17:09 PM
yeah I think it might be better to do 30 minutes after cannon because the people who work food/booths sometimes have to clean up (though there's less cleaning on Saturdays than on Sundays)
Title: Re: Say who is going Sat the final weekend??
Post by: Zoë on July 24, 2009, 08:25:58 PM
I will be there both days closing weekend as ever.

And I can wrangle anywhere from about 15-20 minutes after cannon!  Would love to be there for a photo.

I'm in...IF someone reminds me. if I don't show, call my cell. about 1/2 of you have it.

I can't be there untill someone calls "inside the gate" which is usually about 6:45-655.

would love to see a real good turn out, that means you too, Platt... and Professor.   8)

I will be there on Saturday only, with several members of the Highland Rogues as well. I think I'm the only R/Fer on the crew...so I've got plenty of able bodied photo takers to rope into taking "shutter duty" for us. I've got a digital camera that I will have with me also. See you all there!!!

Triffids are not closely related to Tribbles. One is a plant and one is an animal. Both are alien and eat a lot....

You are making me want to call in on Saturday. I have to be at work by 4:15. Of course, if my plan works, I can be back at faire in time for the photo. I'm planning on going to work with face painted and hair braided and being sent home to wash my face, in which case, I'll simply head back to faire....my shower was broken?

I'm taking Monday off just so we can go both days. I need one day to sleep in as that 1.5 hour drive and then another 1.5 hours back wears on you. I am looking at waking up at 5 to get ready and drive down and then get hom after 9 both days. OYE! If I look like a Zombie on Sunday... that's because I am. HUM ME THINKS I HAVE AN IDEA

Pirate Zombie on Sunday or Noble Zombie on Sunday... I'll come as the Zombie of Anne Boleyn :) Now how to lose my head?

Pirate Zombie on Sunday or Noble Zombie on Sunday... I'll come as the Zombie of Anne Boleyn :) Now how to lose my head?

*coughs, and steps out of Platt for a moment*

This is actually quite easy.  The idea is to make a platform that will fit comfortably on your shoulders, making it look like your shoulders are about 2-6 inches higher than they already are.   By far the easiest (and cheapest) way is to make it out of chickent wire, although you will want to make sure that you pad the inside so that the wire doesn't poke you.  Make the frame so that it follows your shoulders, going up to the neck.  Where your actual head will be, is where it shows the "neck" of the frame that you are making.  You'll have to make a new dress that allows for the extra height that this will give your character.  Cover the frame in cloth, then add Liquid latex to the entire frame, making sure to give the top of the neck the "Severed by a blunted but they tried to sharpen it axe" look, and air-brush to get the proper color.

Make a dress that will fit the new height of you, and then create a head that you can carry around.  (I would suggest getting a mannequin head, or one of the foam heads, and then using liquid latex, a wig, and air brush to make look life-like)

Voila!  You have a headless person.

(Oh.  Make sure you put eye-holes in the neck so you can see out of.  The best way I've seen the eyeholes hidden has actually been a "tight" fitting necklace, with the eye-holes covered in a cloth, so that you can see out, but unless people are really looking, they can't find the eye-holes)

*Ok, back to Platt*

YAY DANCING BEARS!!!!

Post by: Capt Gabriela Fullpepper on July 31, 2009, 03:06:45 PM
SURE NO PROBLEM But I LOVE The Idea Me thinks I need to recruit Platt to help and then next year just buy a cheap dress and modify it. I can Scare the Delights out of Henry  and the Queen. Yes I know she is Anne but I could pretend to be Katherine Howard LOL That would be SO funny. And maybe get Toki to walk around as an Executioner. OH The possibilities

As for Where will I be?

I maybe Here
I maybe there
I maybe by the Dancing bear
Up a Hill
Or a Bill
Near the Queens Pantry to get my fill
I wonder about
There is no Doubt
But to find me, just ask or shout
By Charlette or Zoe
They might know
I'm a noble on the go
I'm just a playtron
There to play
But where to find me? It's hard to say

Hamster heads? HUMMMMM Know that would be interestng. Could be done. Not sure I'm the one to do it, but hey, I might just try. But don't expect me to waze my witchy wand and give you a real one. I know you want one Demetrius, but to do that we would need a teleporter and a hamster and you. Then instead of Brundle Fly we could have Demetrius Hamster

Hey Platt can you give Demetrius a hamster head while your off cutting mine off?
