Sheltie Halloween 2014

[Beanie]

Just a week late! The photographer still hasn't uploaded any of the photos from the contest at the trial, so these are the ones I took this morning at my house with my pumpkins and all the leaves that I then proceeded to mulch and bag as soon as I was done.

Auggie first of course.

Because he is the bestest.

I actually have some Flash underwear I bought years ago and I wanted to use that, but I couldn't find any matching GL underwear so I axed that entire idea. It doesn't really "go" with the actual Flash costume, anyway.

I have to admit that Payton's is actually my favourite costume. I love the way the mask fits on his face, I love the lantern "ring" on his wrist, I just love how I worked this one out. Way better than anything I could have possibly bought.

The only thing I might have changed is to bring the nose bridge further down his nose, but I think that would have ultimately given it a weird silhouette, so I'm pretty happy with it as I made it.

The mask creeped up while we were in the costume contest and I was like "OH GOD NO, THEY'LL FIND OUT YOUR SECRET IDENTITY."

MORE...

Drizzy is soooo regal.

Oh wait no nevermind

I think this was actually the first Halloween costume I ever bought Pepper. She didn't go to the show so I didn't make her one, but I didn't want her left out during photos, and somehow the bunny costume from last year didn't really seem to make sense, so...

I really need to make a far better lasso of truth for this costume though. That one is pathetic.

I also didn't make her tiara, I bought that at Target a year or two ago, along with the Flash one for Auggie. It also technically needs wrist bands... (my mom's costume totally had wrist bands. But I forgot about the lasso of truth. I literally sat in bed after we won the costume contest and went OH MY GOD, I FORGOT THE LASSO OF TRUTH. Obviously nobody else cared but DANG IT)

Miss Georgie next. I would have done her bat ears a little differently I think... maybe a bit more upright... but I liked the overall shape and wasn't sure if I could get the bat ears upright and still have the shape look correct, so I let it go.

I DID make her a cape, but I didn't like how it turned out, so I ultimately didn't use it. I really wish it had turned out better, or I'd had more time to work on it and make a better one...

Group photo! I have no idea what's going on with Georgie's mask. My mom was having malfunction issues with it trying to put it on her.

My Justice League!

ONE MORE...

All winners. Except Payton. Payton sucks.


I should note that if I HAD gotten a puppy earlier this year, he would have been Aquaman. Poor guy. So it's a good thing I didn't get a puppy. Because who wants Aquaman on their Justice League? I mean really.

THE END and I have no idea how I will ever top this. Avengers???

Why are they so adorable?

It's genetic.


PS, Payton is really unhappy that I've decided we're doing ugly Christmas sweaters for our photos this year. He's all BUT I PUT UP WITH THE MASK FOR HALLOWEEN. AREN'T WE DONE?

NOPE.

 

[CharlieDog]

I love your dogs, and your photography, and your freaking creativity with their costumes!!!

GAH. It's all so perfectly well done!

(I need to get Indy's costume pictures done and up. She was Indiana Jones, obviously. lol. I need to find the bullwhip I had her hold, I think I may have given it back to it's rightful owner though lol)
