Description Me as Peri Brown, Colley as the Sixth Doctor, and Warren as the Cyberman. Taken at Dragon*Con 2009.

I had an absolute blast! Already working on a better Peri costume for next year.

I see y'all went with the "Stageplay" version of the 6th Doc's costume! Very cool!

Yup! That's exactly what he did. I'm sure he'd be glad to know you approve!

Cor, I really like this photo! You look very pretty as Peri, if I may say so!

Aww, thank you! That's really sweet of you. I'm glad you like it.

(I did Peri again this year with a wig and updated costume, but I'm not so sure it looks better. Mostly because the wig was a bit crap.)

Depends on which hairstyle you went with: Pre-TRIAL Pageboy or the longer 'do she sported in the TRIAL?

It was more like the pre-Trial pageboy (think Planet of Fire length) except it was a bit TOO short. This year I'm doing her Timelash/Revelation of the Daleks costume, so a longer wig is definitely a must.

this sis funny but kinda cool. I love the little Lady Cassandra cameo in the background. I love the TARDIS by the way.

Thanks. We were very lucky and fortunate to have that full-size TARDIS prop. I hope the owners bring it again next year (though I doubt they will--they had some computer equipment smashed).

YES I am actually searching for a wig right now. I only started the costume about two weeks before the con, so I didn't have time to get a decent one. I'm even going to try for the leotard next year!

And thank you! Glad you like. I had entirely too much fun, especially during the parade. ("Sorry about him, he's a little unstable." "UNSTABLE?!") I saw a video of some thing you did with the Ten Doctors (as Two) and it was awesome!

LOL Thank you. XD

And yeah, wow! It's really great for two weeks before the con. I get most of my wigs off ebay.com, but cosworx.com has some great stuff if you don't mind buying online.

eclecticmuses In reply to vandonovan [2009-09-14 17:35:58 +0000 UTC]

It had its problems. The shoes were too big so I had to stuff them with handkerchiefs, and both the shorts and the shirt were a taaaad too small! But I lived. Definitely going to work on bettering that, and making another costume or two for next year.

Cosworx (along with Amphigory) had some nice-looking wigs, but I think I'm going to have to style whatever I get. Thinking about getting a wig with no bangs and cutting some in, since all the ones with bangs have chunky bangs, and in Vengeance on Varos at least they were more wispy.

Yeah, that's often what I do. I've tried getting like China bob wigs and have been unhappy with them. Just try to make sure you get a skin with a mesh top so you can style it. You don't want to get one with a center part that you can't comb out.

THe costume looks great though, even with the too big/too small issues.
