Unfortunately I don't have the time right now to write up a tutorial for Auriel but if you have questions feel free to send a message and I will do my best to help! This costume was made over the course of a few months. The primary material is EVA foam of varying thickness, a [...]
The convention started off rough and was a roller coaster of ups and downs. First off, it's a pretty far drive from where I live, but luckily there wasn't too much traffic. We went last year and parked in a dirt lot right across the street. We tried to park there again but were waved [...]
Wondercon remains my favorite convention of the year, but this year it came at a very stressful time for me both in my work and personal life. I wasn't able to finish the costume I had been working on, but I am so proud of the way its turning out that I didn't want [...]
At long last convention season has started up again! I missed the first con of the year because one of my horrible selfish friends came to our weekly game night sick and left me with the flu which I was unusually slow to recover from. Ahem. ANYWAY, Long Beach Comic Expo was a lot of [...]
So, yesterday was Nerdbot con and it was pretty fun. It was very small and I had never been to the Pasadena convention center before. The layout was a little weird and all the stairs made it a little cosplay-unfriendly, but the outside was beautiful and there were many cool locations to take pictures at. [...]
To me it's still Comikaze, and I think it'll be confusing with LA Cosplay Con using the same abbreviation. But anyways, this year's con was actually better than any other year (except the first). The Friday hours were short for some reason, so Saturday was the first day we went. Parking, as per usual in [...]
Long Beach Comic Con is generally one of my favorite conventions of the year but due to hard times in my personal life I wasn't able to fully enjoy it this time around. I still had a pretty good time all things considered but I didn't dress up on the first day. I had all [...]
This was my first year attending Anime California, and if I am not mistaken it was their first year holding the con at a convention center instead of a hotel. In the past I have heard a few complaints about the con, generally centered around the hotel and hotel staff so it seems like it [...]
month I attended LA Cosplay Con for the first time, and I believe it was their second year running. I have to say that I was very impressed by the little con. It was held at the Long Beach Convention Center which has become probably my favorite convention location in Southern California, it sure beats [...]
Wondercon this year was pretty good, although there were quite a few things different from the last few years. First off, Wondercon moved to the LA Convention Center. Hopefully this is only temporary because the LA Convention Center is such a pain to get to and to find parking for. Most of the good parking [...]
