Dragoncon

Some things that happened!

Last weekend was Dragoncon, which rocked hardcore. This was our first year attending, and I think that there is now no question whatsoever as to whether or not we will be attending it over Otakon from now on. So much in fact that 2010's tickets are already purchased. At a polar opposite to most Anime cons, there was

Congrats on the drop! I want Whitemane's Chapeau. :( I'm still trying to figure out how you made the draenei legs??

Also, there's an RP game I play at that totally has a Hulkling AND a Wiccan and while I've never read the comics, they are ten kinds of adorable. And they make smoochings happen!

she HACKED OFF HER OWN SHINS and walked around on GIANT GOAT LEGS. no lies.

It was a pretty nifty method that I got from a furry site actually. I took progress pictures, but basically I cut foam blocks and sewed them to a pair of leggins above the knee, on the back of my leg, and then in a triangle on top of my ankle to make it look like my leg had a curve. Then I covered the whole thing in fitted blue fabric.

They seriously ARE completely adorbs in the comics. And always hanging all over each other too, but that's about where Marvel draws the line. Although YOU would like Karolina and Xavin, the kickass space lesbians from Runaways (which sadly sucks now, with the current artist and writer). One's a shapeshifter, one's just rainbow sparkly all the time. A+

PS WHERE ARE MY GOBLINS.

It was good to run into you guys, even if it was just in passing. Even though it was quite a few times. XD Your costumes looked amazing, and these pictures turned out great~

OMG EPIC PHOTOS ARE EPIC

old meme is old

I am loling forever over the last picture. Sweet drop.

[gothic_hamlet]

YOU GOT A SWEET NEW HAT.

DUDE holy shit we saw another flapjack and this GIANT FUCKING MASCOT-STYLE K'NUCKLES BECAUSE HOW THE HELL ELSE WOULD YOU MAKE THAT SHIT. FRIGHTENING. LET'S COSPLAY THE FUCKING MERMAID.

[hey_mayonegg]

OMG SCONE SENT ME A PHOTO THAT FUCKING PERFECT K'NUCKLES. MINDBLOWING.

HAHAHAHAHA. YES.

[gothic_hamlet]

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MAN IN THE WOOOO~OO~OOOOORLLLLD......

[amnesiac_owl]

Thanks! You guys were awesome too I wish i could have hung out with you all more than I got to.

Also the costumes look so friggan amazing in these pictures!

And yes, Hulkling and Wiccan are awsome but never get any attention, I don't think they've ever even kissed on panel, and now that Marvel has been bought by Disney I think my dream of seeing that may never come true :(.

Next year you you should stay in the Marriot its so cool because every night the lobby levels become a huge costume party! That and it where most stuff seems to happen^_^ ( i loved it as you can tell, I'm sure)

P.S. Please enjoy the icon.

I think the Marriot might be a little ~too~ happ'nin for our oldface selves. >XP But I think we're looking at either the Hilton or the Sheraton since they're a lot closer. Apparently people are already booking stuff too, even though the rates haven't been officially announced.

Yep, I think you're right about the smoochings. One can hope though. :( Although holy crap I am SO CONFUSED about all this timeline stuff... secret invasion vs dark reign. I just got tossed into it and am having a heck of a time even figuring out what runs exist and are what. I have no idea what Disney is going to do about anything, to be honest... I know a lot of people are freaking but I have my doubts that they're going to plow in and start changing stuff left and right; Marvel's stuff wouldn't reflect poorly on Disney as a kid-friendly brand, even though the holding company is now the same. Plus what are they going to do... go through everything Toonami style and take out all the blood? (THAT would be hilarious)

[foenixfyre]

Hilton!!!! Definitely the Hilton! 'Cause it's the best, and it's where we stay. Also, the Hyatt is ALREADY SOLD OUT FOR 2010!!! WTF?! So book your hotel room(s) soon!

[gothic_hamlet]

We just did! Only one room though, because apparently they require a deposit weirdly enough? Varry bizzarre!

[foenixfyre]

DCon has it over Otakon like cheesecake has it over stale crackers. Seriously!!!

I had sooooo much fun with you guys! Your costumes were the most awesome ever.

Any chance you're going to Chas for Thanksgiving this year? *blinkety*

(By the way, could you send me the photos you took of my steampunk costume? I'm trying to find a few.)
