$100 Bass Challenge - Marceline's Axe Bass

Are you going to 'distress' the jeans - (raggedy cuffs/blown-or knees etc) and wear sandals? Also just noticed the grey pu covers & knobs. (cartoon chrome)

No detail gets by you :P

I probably should have started distressing the jeans sooner, but yeah, I should start on that. I was wearing flip flops, though you can't see that in the pic. Also, my ears were covered by all that hair.

We also tested the wireless/amp in my hubby's back pack, which seemed to work. I removed the antenna from the receiver and replaced it with a wire for easier mobility, and reduce "poking" hazards.

We're still working on his nose, and we didn't apply all the skin color to either of us. We'll wait until the Comicon for that.

And thanks to everyone for all the positive comments :)
 
OK, I'm not going to come right out and say your husband is anywhere near as cool as you, but he does, in fact, seem pretty damn cool. I am not planning to start a "mapleglo's husband fan club," however. You two are going to really go over, man.
Let's just say he's FO@M #0.

Just saw this in the convention rules - last bullet point on the screenshot:

Well, we will find out tomorrow...
One thing to consider is that they most likely would not kick a Darth Vadar out that had breathing sound effects, or even a low volume Imperial March coming from their costume...you are most likely fine.

Once again, I am rendered speechless. :speechless: :wideyed: :wacky: I'm not even sure if there's an icon. Anyway, thanks again for all your support, comments, and good cheer!

And in related news, the Nady wireless system arrived today. I hooked it up real quick and it seems to work. I'll have to spend a little time with it to dial it in. It seems to add a little gain to the signal.

This thread is amazing! The bass is so cool and the effort put into this is outstanding BRAVO...
I am quoting this message because I see you are a fan of "Foamy", I had no idea what that was until last year...see video and thread below (my old band was mentioned in a Foamy Cartoon)
