eolo might recall that many years ago I told him I had a thing

So, yeah. Okay, so ballroom!Dave might have white EVERYTHING (tailcoat, shirt, cravat, waistcoat, trousers, shoes, armwarmers) plus black thingys up his right arm and coloured lining for his coat. And a gold chain or two on the coat. And Valeria Heart on his back (not sure what colour yet though.)

Of course, white everything doesn't have to mean plain white. I think his waistcoat can have patterns, if I can find a decent one.

The internet is trying to tell me that for shoes, men's sizing is the same as women's, so their size 6 is the same as a women's 6. Is that true? I'm supposing men's shoes might be made wider, but overall, are the sizes the same? O_o Uhhhh suppose I should go to a shoe shop and try things out.

Is it lunch time yet?

Is it weekend yet?

No worries, I do that too!

The metal parts could probably be mimicked by carefull application of gluegun and metal-coloured spray?

*thinks*

Maaaaybe. Will metal paint stick to glue okay, or will it flake off when it's dry?

The stuff I've got works fine. ^^ I've been using it on the Gae Bolg and have used it previously on other cosplays! If not, this thing is made out of industrial putty and then painted, which actually might be easier to handle than glue for a small item.

Hmm, yeah, that turned out pretty well. I will investigate when I get back to the UK, I think.
