The Quest to Become a Twi’lek

Today was a much more productive day than yesterday even though yesterday evening I finally found my stride and got to a place that made me happy with what I was working on.

As for what I was working on this weekend, I’ve been thinking about our upcoming trip to the Galactic Starcruiser. I want to make the trip special, we all do. We plan on cosplaying and being in character for this trip as this is the whole point of the Galactic Starcruiser.

The Starcruiser is meant to be a fully immersive Star Wars experience. So while my husband and our best friends are all dressing up I am stepping it up a notch and will be going as a Twi’Lek. I wanted to stand out and be different from the other guests that will be on board the Hyperion.

I know not everyone who will go will be in costume, or fully immerse themselves in the experience but we plan to get the most we can out of the trip.

So with all that said I spent the weekend making my own Twi’Lek lekku, they are not the real fancy latex ones that I have seen at conventions but they came out a lot better than I expected although I struggled to get there yesterday.

By the evening time I had it figured out how I wanted to get it done and I finished it up today and even got started on a second set which will be for my formal wear. So when I arrive at the Galactic Starcruiser I will be arriving as something from another planet.
