Another something new!

Oh Aspen Comics.  How I love them.  Do you read anything that they publish? Have you read their new series, Damsels in Excess?  You should probably get on that if you haven't yet.  Next year I'm going to be in a new trading card series as Princess Bethany for Aspen,  so last week I met up with Larry Alan, makeup artist Tara Hutchison and seamstress, body artist and regular bad ass, Amanda from ModifiedMinds to do a few shoots.  Amanda made me this fantastic dress and Tara worked on my hair and makeup.

 Obviously we didn't use body paint

Closer look at my makeup

  Tara did an amazing job on my hair and makeup, but this version isn't even close to done.  I still need a lip ring, gloves, a different choker, a flower for my hair....  Here is Princess Bethany. 

We reshot last week with everything-- those pics will be out, edited and on a trading card within the next few months! I'll post links once everything has been announced.

Stay classy, my little pickles and remember, you can find me every day on my instagram as @pocketsized21.

Hey, real quick, before I leave

I never thought I'd be so busy before heading off for Louisiana but- it's been pretty much insanity around here.
Late last week was making sure to meet up with my friend Cheryl, soon to be bride.  I'm one of her bridesmaids so we went over decorations, reception plans, etc.  Cheryl also happens to do makeup and her fiance is Dennis, of Dennis Mong Photography. So, we ended up going to Phoenix, finding some incredible art and shooting :)

Then, Wednesday, it was time for me to get updated headshots.  When you get headshots, depending on who you go to, you usually do different looks and shots.  So, I did not only headshots but 3/4 and full body.  Oh, the things you need for casting.
Since I was already shooting, we made a day of it and I shot product for ModifiedMinds and Torture Coture's new catalog with Larry Alan Photo

Behind the Scenes

After an entire day and afternoon of shooting....and running on zero sleep, I made it home with 3 hours to get ready for a commercial shoot.  I napped for about and hour and then grabbed my stuff and ran out the door to film.  I had a fantastic time filming and then went out for sushi!!!!
 I am supposed to film one more commercial before I leave for NOLA.  That should be next week at some point.  With the shooting, filming and upcoming move, I will not be able to make it to SDCC this year :(  This will be the first time in 4 years that I will miss the show.  I'm sad because conventions are one of the only times that I get to see and spend time with my friends (my con-family), but, I must leave that for later in the year, as my career is calling. 
Also, if you didn't get the email or notification-- The finale of GEEK CRED is now out!!

You can see me briefly in the 2nd episode, entitled 'Detective Comics Store,' guest starring Jim O'heir from the award winning comedy, Parks and Recreation.  I had such a great time working on the show and can't wait to go back and work on the next episodes.  Got geek cred? #GetSome
