That turned out pretty nice, did you use a pattern initially, or did you do it from scratch?

@Shamus
Bah, I've been gaining weight too, but that's because my mom does the 'meat and potatoes' kind of meals, or when she does make veggies its usually ONLY broccoli. T-T

@nyreen
Is your hair naturally that color? That's an interesting shade of blonde.

@Ginger
Freckles~

Everyone on trisphee is so beautiful and glorious <3 -heart eyes-

Made it from scratch! I usually make my own designs. Of the stuff I listed, only the moonkin hoodie started with an off-the-shelf pattern, but I altered it before I started cutting it out.

The hardest thing I ever made was a reproduction of the World of Warcraft "Tabard of the Illidari" -- the reason it was so hard is because WoW's tabards are really more like dresses because of the way they're form-fitting instead of just draped over the body and tied with a sash, and I've never made a form-fitted dress before. I got a pattern instead of trying to work it from scratch, and even so the alterations were hard to get right because the pattern didn't have panels in the right places.

oh goodness you are so pretty, come do my hair xD

I am a cancer survivor and to save my life they had to remove my right lung. Having one is extremely difficult. I get winded doing normal things like drying off after a shower, ascending stairs and changing clothes. So, as you can imagine, I cant breathe during exercise, so I dont do any. Now I am packing on the pounds.

@Coda
I can understand why you'd do that, why do video games have to sexualize outfits? Tera does that with all the female outfits, and I don't approve of bikini plate mail. :/

@nyreen
I've always wanted to dye my hair a glossy black color with dark purple highlights, but sadly with the jobs I'm trying to get they don't allow you to dye your hair unless its natural colors. =.=;

@Shamus
that sucks, and its hard to have a diet that accounts for you not being able to exercise that doesn't affect your health/make you not hungry.

That's so silly. My work doesn't mind I've changed my hair a lot over the years and they've always been really cool about it. They don't mind peircings either. Honestly... I think it's weird when companies don't allow their employees to express themselves genuinely. :(

And its not like mine would be over the top either, it would be brown to black with dark purple highlights. After I get into a better paying job I might see about dying it. I wish my hair was thicker though, then I could probably do the mohawk thing like she does. x'D

I want to show off mah dress because it's awesome and matches my hair!
And it has pockets!


Nyreen your sides are amazing! I haven't gotten to dyeing mine yet =(

There's really no need to jump to conclusions. It's not sexualized. It's actually quite modest. It covers more skin than a real tabard would, because it connects underneath the armpits. And in the game it layers on top of whatever shirt and pants/skirt/leggings you might also be wearing. The modifications I made to the pattern were specifically to make the tabard follow the lines of my wife's body, because that's what she wanted me to make. (My first plan was to MAKE a proper real-world-style tabard! It certainly would have been less work.) Sadly I never actually finished it; I got the tabard itself made, but I ran out of time before Blizzcon before I could get the appliques applied so it wasn't just a blank purple dress.

And while I think bikini armor is ridiculous and impractical, it's also a staple of fantasy fiction, and plenty of women like it. World of Warcraft has a transmogrification system in place so you're never stuck having to wear a piece of armor that you don't like the look of. So if you're a female player who wants her avatar to be a strong, resilient-looking character, that option is available to you, and if you're a female player who wants her avatar to show off her skin as a display of power, that option is available to you as well, and neither choice puts you at a disadvantage.

I know FFXIV has a similar kind of system, but sadly most of the games I play (save warframe because...alien looking stuff? x'D) tend to do that, and you can't even get something like that in them unless you pay cash. And even then most of those outfits are like that anyways. T-T Really makes em made. Luckily though I can always play Elder Scrolls or the D&D Black Isle games, they don't do that~♫

Exactly, not to mention I have ADD that I am not allowed meds for because I failed the doctor's drug test. When I was going through cancer, I smoked weed to ease my pain, make me less nauseous and just make it a bit more beareable. My state doesnt do medicinal Marijuana, so I was getting it from a friend who was just trying to help me. Uncontrolled ADD makes people eat to stimulate themselves and I am no different.
