***TDH gathering at Dressing the Galaxy Sunday Nov 20th***

Thanks for the photos. They are great!!
Darren

All I can say is that those of you who failed to make it, missed out on a great time!
To get to hang out with fellow TDH'rs you know put faces to names, eat good food, talk Fett, Jango and Star Wars was a great time.
Not to mention having a conversation with another woman, (Kristen of course) about Fett or Jango, armor and anything relevant to things, stories, costuming was awesome. I really appreciated that!

But the madness that ensued at the Fett, Jango, Zam display was pure fun! I laughed so hard my jaw hurt, having Fett work the camera and the comments that followed were so **** hilarious! Inside joke, see you had to be there. Just take a look at the Fett pose, ridiculous...
Stumbling upon the Nick Cage movie was pretty cool too.
It was nice to be able to meet and talk with Art, Britt, Ken, Kristen, Cruzer & his adorable son and just have alot of fun.
Thanks for a great time guys it was great to meet all of you and hope to be able to hang out again!
Art you didn't have to pay that in the end did you... what utter madness, great ending to your day. Unbelievable!?!
Thanks again guys!!
Christi

Right on Christi!!

Glad to hear you guys had so much fun!

Your right I am filled with regret and depression
I hope there is a 'next time'

Danielle

From what I’ve heard a good time was had by all at FIDM with what could be described as beautiful chaos.

I’m glad everyone than came out had a splendid time and took some really exceptional photos, I’ll be absolutely sure to make it out to the next TDH gathering cause it seems I did miss out.

Even the"Sniffer" sometimes cries. You see, it is hard to convey thanks. Men don't like to admit that they are emotional. BUT DANG MAN! That Slave Leia made the someones day. Thank you so much!!! Gonzo Fett sent a similar pic too.

And the other photographer looked like our own Braks. Either way! The "Sniffer" salutes you both for such wonderful photographs!

It is true. Our favorite characters in costume were there on a manequin in an exhibit. But from the looks of these pictures, the most beautiful people are The Dented Helmet.

The Sniffer

Thanks for the great pictures! Looks like y'all had a good time.

But where does Boba's gauntlet hose think it's going??

I do have a favor though. Can anyone of you guy's take a picture for the "Sniffer" and hold up a little sign in the picture that says "The Sniffer Abides" It can be done in a normal pen or a regular sharpee marker on a sheet of paper or paper towel for that matter.

In time of Dragon Con the "Sniffer" shall compensate you for your efforts.

Thank you for your time!

"The Sniffer"

YOU OWE ME ONE SNIFFER I WILL BE flying out to ATLANTA NEXT YEAR TO COLLECT!!! j/k

You did a Great job with the photos..Understood you were limited, but you still did a fine job..thanks for sharing. I wish I could of made it. BTW the pizza shots are making me hungry.

Some people have all the fun! I am jealous, I wanted to go to the exhibit so bad. I'd rather had a plane ticket than the limited edition book.

BTW, Mirax, your hair is such a pretty shade. I really like it.

Jen

Thanks for the great photo's! Looks like everyone had a good time, i'll have to try and make it to the next one.

Boba Fetts - Will you be posting your FIDM pics on your website? Or otherwise making available those photos? A CD perhaps from the man with the Golden Camera?

Guys those are some awesome Pictures. I was talking to Christi yesterday and she was right Boba is in a really specail pose. He is just looking "SUPER SPECIAL!" lol You suppose he painted the inside of the slave one purple?

Jen

Thank you!!! I wanted to try something different and was afraid I would hate it having been blonde for such a long time but I really love it

It was so great seeing folks I've met before and meeting new ones! We really had a great time, especially setting off the alarms and messing with the security folks Here's a few, just for the Sniffer- I am sure I set off the alarms during one of these pics

Art and I took enough that we could easily make a Slave Leia and Boba Fett/Jango Fett Ref DVD.

I think this will one the best REF CD's out. Two of the best photographes out there.

And I'm not kissing butt here. You know, you guys are good.

Turo

Yeah right Turo....we all know you like to kiss butt.


Oh yeah, it was great seeing all of you and hanging out a bit.

How'd you photos come out Kenny? Sorry I didn't get to really chat with you more! It was nice to see you out of the elvistrooper costume :-P I don't think I ever have!

Dang! This "Sniffer" really has it good. Awesome pictures!

Dudes,...and dudettes.

It was so cool hanging with all of you at the exhibit.

Too bad the turd-clowns running the thing didn't make it a little more "photographer-friendly"

After all the goofing and laughing I bet they were never more glad in their lives than to see us leave! LOL!

I need more outings like that with you guys.



Sean

wait a minute, that sniffer picture is NOT computer generated ? That's for real ?!

aka " I am looking for someone to shoot my wedding"

You have an entire DVD worth of pics? 4.3 Gigs! Thats amazing! If you ever feel like burning some copies of them, i'd love to have a copy! I was supposed to go last Sunday but had a change of plans. I am bummed I didnt get to meet you all.

I'm pretty sure that sign was CG'd. There's no way they'd let anyone put that sign and a nose on the Slave Leia's arm.

Got Maul y'know how us members at TDH have photoshope skills

I tried to get the shadowing just right...but **** I didn't do THAT good of a job.

Wow! I can't believe I missed out on this TDH gathering.
I'm only 20-25 minutes away from FIDM. Would have been
nice to finally meet some of you. Maybe next time around.

Joren Fett

Contrary to popular beliefe, the "Sniffer" is not that powerful as TDH makes him out to be. You see my friends, He is a man of flesh and blood. What's his point? You see, behind his non accurate and poorly done Jango Bucket, two tears drip down his face. The first tear pounces and lands in a pocket of his dimple, the other tear manages it's ways through the roadmaps of the "Sniffers" top cheek forming tributaries before they hit the sides of his ears.

Why all the emotion? My friends, these are not tears of sadness, but they are tears of joy. For a member of the adminstrative staff risked her life to take this picture for the "Sniffer" And yet another friend of the "Sniffer" who he holds in high regaurd too, made a brave and valient effort to get the best shot behind security lines. He (The "Sniffer")admires the courage, dignity, honor and the valore of the "Mirax" and the "Gonzo Fett"

Thankyou my new friends.

And please do not worry for the "Sniffer" for he will be fine.

The "Sniffer" Abides

Must go to Walmart and stock up on the cleenex

Sniffer your too MUCH!!!!

ya

Hey guys! Looks like I'll be going back to FIDM again for the second and last Fan Day December 4th (a week from tomorrow). I'll probably spend a few hours there getting photos like last time, however... I probably will focus on other costumes and not as much as Fett (I have SO many of Boba, but I need a lot more of Jango).

From any of the costumes, including Boba Fett... is there any requests out there? I'm going to bring my longer lens as well to try and get in as close as I can. They don't say I can't bring a professional 100-400mm lens :-D I just have to stand about 15 feet back in order to focus on a 1/16th of an inch of Fett's costume! :-D If they tell me I can't bring it in (doubtful), I'll have at least a 28-105mm lens with me. So, I'm going to give you guys a week to request any certain photos of any of the 100 costumes there. Try not to make the requests too daunting though, remember it's nearly impossible to shoot the backsides of the costumes and I can't use flash nor tripods.
Still working on trying to get the house lights on for a short time. If so, I'll have a lot more Fett shots.

your right on!

oh man....I know there are 2 padmes for sure. Her wedding dress (if you can focus in on detail of it that wold be grand!
There is another one of hers, she wore in ROTS it is on the DVD cover. It has a green like robe that goes with it.
Whatever you can get on those two would be awesome.

Two Padmes, check!

Right now the list for photo requests is:
Slave Leia Details
AOTC Wedding Dress Padme Details
The ROTS 'Stare across the city' Padme Costume
All of C-3PO
AOTC Picnic Padme Details
ROTS Funeral Padme Costume
ROTJ Dark Luke
TPM Red Queen Amidala with Lights Costume
Boba Fett Gauntlet Super Details
AOTC Fireplace Padme Details

Anything else anyone? Last chance!

I still don't know whether I'll make it down to FIDM Sunday to get my shots, but I'm sure Zam I Am could use some really great high res shots for her Zam reference CD if it's not too much trouble for ya bro.

No Problem! Zam added to the list.

I don't know how you arrived at that from what I said, but actually yes. If anyone is say in Vegas around oh let's say March 19th, 2006 then feel free to the wedding. and if you have a camera, then all the better...thankyaverymuch.


Oh and my shoots from the FIDM were...OK...I guess I need to work on holding very still and not breathing while I take pics.

BIG NEWS!!!!!!!

For one hour before the exhibit opens, I've talked with FIDM and I'll be able to go in and get photos WITH flash. That's right, WITH flash. The focus will be on Slave Leia, Boba Fett and Jango Fett... but is there any requests? It has to be rather important unfortunatly because I only have an hour. I will be shooting the really dark 'villian' room as well since I didn't get many photos that turned out great.

That's prodigious news bro!

It goes without saying your going to get some killer shots, not worrying on adjusting for every single shot you'll make good of your one hour time limit with flash, it will bring shame to my lame photos in a good way.

Good luck to ya!

WOW Awesome news man!!

Very cool man, so while you are in the Villians room, can you get a couple close up shots of the Ep3 Imperial officers. I would like to see the greeblie/disk on the hat and the belt as close up as you can get. Straight on and side shots. And the rank bars too while you are at it, thankyaverymuch.

Oh and any pics of that Vader Saber in the saber window box would be great too, you know if you happen to walk by it and stuff.

You got it. I have a really powerful Canon Speedlight flash I'll be bringing as well. Going to get some really great shots at ISO 100.

Could I maybe request one shot of the Naboo guards in the blue coat and maroon jerkin? Pretty please?


Jen

My requests in the order I would like to see them:

The Emperor's robes (ROTS if they have it)
Jango's belt extreme close ups
Boushh
Vader
Capt Antilles

Boushh, unfortunatly, is not there. I'm writing all of these down.

have you not gone yet? if you could get flash pictures of Zam's gauntlets and also any shots of the back of her costume. (She's angled, so you can kinda get half of her back. )

Oh and the EPIII Vader if possible.
