If a picture is worth a thousand words, is this a really long entry?

First draft on the beegirl costume. It still needs a little something more black on the upper body, I think -- perhaps a low-slung leather collar or a black velvet scarf. But I'm overall pleased with it.

This is definitely an outfit that requires an assistant. I of course need to be laced into the corset. Although I actually have the eyes mounted on a pair of glasses behind the mask, the holes in the eyes are tiny and only allow limited tunnel vision, plus they tend to fog up after a bit. Also, the boots have 4" heels, which means I may want a bit of help navigating stairs and the like. (If anyone wants to volunteer to accompany me for a while one night at Midwest FurFest, you will be richly rewarded.)

I'm aiming for disturbing, yet sexy. What do you think?

It looks nicely reminiscent of Brom...

... which means that if you really wanted to go the Brom route, some more straps, a batch of Army surplus web gear, some sort of gothic flanged mace would really accessorize it further. Er, but you were going for sexy. Right! Sorry.

How'd you do the compound eyes anyway?
