The one from the back's even better - clenched anyone?
Saturn: I haven't really, apart from my hair being long enough to tie back. I've found that just about every picture taken of me (on different days) looks totally different. I'm a photochameleon

is that a selle italia SLR saddle on your bike? :icon6:
Yeah, it's on a custom built Specialized Epic.
How old? I can't tell the wheels from the pic, do you have a better one? and XTR drivetrain I'm assuming?
It's a 2003 frame, with an xt 2004 groupset, rock shox duke race forks, and everything else is carbon. Those wheels are the ones that came with it, but I've since put some mavic crossmax on. Wish I could ride it a bit more, but I've got really lazy, and I won't take it out in the wet/dirt because I'm a fucking pussy.
Lessons learned
Fabric paint is a pain in the ass to deal with, and must be applied with a heavy hand if sharp edges on lines are desired. It would have probably helped if I had not worn and washed the unitard before painting, as that caused the fabric to pill somewhat, making it much harder to get the paint down into the fabric.
If you superglue something to a painted surface, you're not gluing to the item itself, but to the paint. I should have waited the specified 7 days for maximum chip resistance (which means maximum hardness and curing) before trying to glue the el-wire to it.
No matter how hard you try, the colors will never match exactly. Don't obsess about it; do the very best you can and quit worrying.
I got some slack cut because this was my first masquerade. It'll be tougher to win something next year...and it was suggested that, while I could re-enter this costume, doing so very many times would not be wise. Now, all I have to do is come up with another idea...

good choice on group, the XTR is overrated IMO (certainly not worth the extra expense over the XT). personally, I would have gone with a set of custom built wheels- some chris king hubs laced to whatever rims tickle your fancy. I'm a chris king whore though, so that might just be me
In the orthographic shot, you can see through the leotard around his feet. In one of the last shots you can see through around his legs area. It's pretty nasty, and I'm sure you're stroking your clit right now.

Like I said, Urkel Jr., you're the only one who looked that closely :lol:

ah, so you're not a Brigitte Nielsen lookalike anymore.
