Elsa Sequin testing
Elsa Sequin testing Small problem with trying to get photos, the sequins flash green mostly when vertical, when flat they look really purple.

Maleficent fibreglassing May 20, 2014 michaela de bruce Leave a comment Sooo, the duo tone blue green doesn’t show up in the photo but it does in reality and I’ll just mix some and coat it tomorrow. So I put the horns and head in the sink and used hot water to soften them enough…

Maleficent has a huge hoop. Bugger. May 17, 2014 michaela de bruce Leave a comment I had suspected but a few images put together really do reveal this quite clearly. If you watch the Awkward Situation clip you can see how the train skims the ground without folding or dragging. If you watch the edge…
Maleficent, so much wrangling
Maleficent, so much wrangling May 14, 2014 michaela de bruce 1 Comment This is a sample of the crazy construction. Interior: CF seam allowance at very top of photo. This shows the intersection of the hip/skirt gores fronts, sleeve, side back and back hip/skirt gore. Same view but from the bottom looking up. No…
