FB Users, I call upon thee again!I got through to Round 2 of the "Sexy Cosplay Girls" Contest!
I need to call upon you lovely Facebook types once again for your help to get through to the next round! Please go to THIS LINK and hit "like"! Feel free to leave a comment too, if you want.
I've changed my entry to Judy Nails. It's not one of my most well-known cosplays, but despite that, it's one of my favourites.
Thank you in advance to everyone who votes! ^_^
-------Christmas-------
I've already posted this on my tumblr page, but we've received a fair few messages from people asking if they can send us gifts or cards for Christmas.
Jenn and I would be far more grateful if you donate the cost of your gift/card/postage to Doctors Without Borders, in honour of Par

Trying to go ProfessionalWhat would it mean if I could actually take on YouTube as a profession?
Mainly it would result in 100% more videos for you guys, as well as being able to branch out and really dedicate time in production and editing.
This is something I've been talking about with Kelly for a while now, and I have recently (after some serious talk) gained my mothers support in the venture.
However, I can't do it for free. This is where you guys come in.
1) In the last few months of 2012, I plan to push for new designs in the Parlé store. So if you'd like to support us; then please buy a t-shirt or two when they are ready to go!
US STORE: http://parleproductionsusa.spreadshirt.com
UK STORE: http://parleproductions.spreadshirt.co.uk
2) Tell your friends about our shows, make your own videos talking about the shows. Do journals and tumblr blogs; anything to get the Parlé name out there and appealing to more people. The more people we get; the more likely this will happen.
3) Although we're not ke

Thank you so much for all the Birthday wishes you guys <3 I wish I had the time to reply to them all!
You're all awesome!

CHRISTMAS, NEW YEAR AND BIRTHDAY?!?!HELLO AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL YOU PEOPLE.
Sorry my DA uploads have been pretty much non exsistent...but I lead a slow/busy/boring life. HAHA. XD
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and got everything you asked for!
Same with the New Year, but obviously without the presents. ;D
IT IS MY 21ST ON THE 8TH OF JANUARY. Next week! Huzzah!
And recently, I've had a few people on Tumblr and Twitter and Deviantart asking me if they can send me gifts through the post or what not.
Sadly, I do not give out my home address unless it is for something I have commissioned or what not, so thats a no. Thankyou for the thought, but I hope you can all understand.
Stuff I will accept is of course, fan art of my characters which you can find most likely in my gallery or any kind of art.
Also, if you want to do something a little more, you can donate a few bucks/pounds to myself through my paypal, which that will go to my holiday in July, paying off some debts, attempting to repair my laptop and even

Catching Up!Sorry! I'm behind on checking my dA. I'm gonna try to catch up on my messages today

This is a message brought to you by the Decent Human Being Society, where we treat each other as one big family instead of bashing or discouraging fellow cosplayers for no fathomable reason.
If you partake in the latter, then kindly see your way to the door and mind the gap, because I'll be shoving you into it.

Don't worry, y'all! The issue between a friend of mine and the person who bashed her has been cleared up and put to rest. All is well.

Stupid Maple SyrupI was quite happy being asleep. But no, some blood Canadian thought it would be best to phone me. Not to mention phone me while impersonating me. *twinfools is mental, I would like it to be known.
And what's worse? There's three of them in total, not just one, zooming down the road towards the house right now.
I told Kelly to take them back to the airport and leave them where she found them. She wouldn't listen to me.

Coming to California?Oh hey people of California, thought you should know that there is a big possibility that Kelly and I will be on your side of the states for Anime Los Angeles (4th-6th Jan 2013).
Just watch this space.
More info will follow in time!

It's so quiet...Sorry for the lack of activity here! I've been busy XD
It's been a bit of a mental start to 2013, with Jenn getting a new job, a bunch of birthdays and events, and a lack of money forever looming overhead!
I've mostly been busy working on my costume and kit for a new LARP system I'm joining next month, so when I have some good pictures of that, I'll share them here. It's not often I will share pictures of my original characters on deviantART (in fact, I don't think I've ever done it), but I'm really proud of the kit for this. A bunch of Parlé are all joining the same system, so hopefully we can get a few good shots before time in!
Here's a preview of the costume, for those interested...

On the con-front, things are less busy than usual, due to clashing events, and one or two that we usually attend for fun that we're opting out of this year. We did London Anime Con at the start of the month, which was a fantastic event. Still t

Question Time!Ok, I get a lot of questions that are asked over and over again to me on dA, so I figured I'd finally do a big journal to answer them all (as no one seems to look at my FAQ journal XD
I'll copy/paste my FAQ journal over into this (with a few more new Q's added), and if you have any other questions you want to ask, now is the time to do so! I'll update the journal with all the new questions as we go.
Regarding Axel
Q. Where did you get your Organization coat?
A. Ebay!
Q. Where did you get your Axel wig?
A. I bought the unstyled wig off ebay, then cut and styled it myself. It is made from two wigs sewn together.
Q. Where did you get your chakrams?
A. I made them entirely from scratch.
Q. How did you make your chakrams?
A. I never have, and never will, give an EXACT walkthrough on how my props are made, unless they're minor ones. I just don't want everyone having identical props to me, when I made mine with all my own ideas, entirely from scratch.
I will, however, give you some tip
