Olive as a skin tone = mediterranean. I say Olive, you think Spaniards, or Lebanese, or Italian. thus, olive skin tone. =__=
the only problem is that we go kind of green, or grayish, if we're not careful.

Not careful about what?

The amount of sun they get.

Exactly. If someone with peach tones in their skin stays inside all winter, they go pale. Someone with a very light complexion goes porcelain.
Yellow complexions go sallow, and if you have green undertones [again, Italian, Lebanese, Spanish], you go a rather wierd shade of yellow-green-grey. Not so fun. =__=

Really? I've never been able to do it with any degree of efficacy. XD How would you go about making Trey look more Jordanian, then? I'm curious...

Speaking of covering up---Trey, aren't you going to die of heatstroke, if you're wearing Hassan's big and heavy jacket? Cause that's got to be made out of something... like, leather or something similar. It looks heavy...
Won't you get overheated?

no. I'll be making it out of either a twill or a rodeo, it'll only need one layer(The front panels will need lining so I can make pockets) so it'll be fairly lightweight, and I'm pretty damn used to heat. I live in california. It doesn't rain(ignore today).

Well, that makes sense, then... That's really light, so it won't be a huge problem.
I'm still wondering about all of the layers Clyde wears... I'm getting twitchy. XD They're relatively wintery...though I suppose I could always wear the outfit he has on the front page, the emerald green shirt? *sigh*
Mmm.. sunny california..

Careful, Trey. While California is generally hotter than Canada, your holey is as dry as my grandfather.
Southern Ontario gets really humid in the summer, doesn't it?

To the point where you can eat it with a spoon. Toronto, more specifically, has really shitty smog, and its right by the lake. The humidity is going to be OBSCENE. It was last year, actually, as well.
It gets hot, and muggy, and inside the convention centre, its quite honestly ten degrees hotter then outside. Which isn't fun. I'd be careful with that coat, no matter what it's made out of.
I mean, the last costume I made was a Dilandau cosplay, very lightweight, and I still blacked out for a second. I'm not entirely sure the TCC is airconditioned. [hence my spazattack about weather-appropriate outfits for Clyde. XD blacking out = not fun]
