At last we've reached the end! Of course, I haven't written up GenCon or Dragon*Con yet...

( Saturday: BSG and Masquerade!!! )

( Sunday: The Aftermath, and free stuff )

Great Comic-Con, y'all. Let's do it again sometime.

Working on a con report, but for now, here are my costumes from this year's Dragon*Con!

( Robin Sparkles, Sith Cheerleader, Una, Hairspray girl, T'Posh )

Okay, apparently I did get this done tonight! I had a fantastic Comic-Con this year. For one, my dad qui_gon_d and my brother dmbtuxwaddle came to stay with us and go to the con from Wednesday through Saturday. And they costumed! Pictorial evidence is in the report. :) For another, even though it was crowded (and oh, was it ever crowded), I got into almost everything I wanted to see and wasn't really disappointed by any of it, and the volunteers/staff generally did a good job of packing the rooms as full as possible. Line management could still be better, but it's improving every year.

Fair warning, this is REALLY LONG. And really detailed. On we go!

( Wednesday: Preview Night! )

( Thursday: Sith Cheerleaders, Dr. Jones and his son, Sarah Connor Chronicles, and asking questions at panels (or, OMG BEAR MCCREARY ILU) )

Next up: Friday, or EPIC AVATAR PANEL IS EPIC.

Wahoo! With major thanks to Cordelia (whose camera it was), my dad qui_gon_d (who did the taping), and kelbebop (who put it on Youtube), here is our skit, entitled simply "Hairspray":



And here's a close-up version from another random person. Thanks, random person!



Muuuch better than the official video, which is as always full of inappropriate close-ups, with bonus shots up people's noses and random shots of all our knees. (Seriously, what the hell?)

JUDGES' CHOICE HELL YEAH!!!!



Mad props to Cordelia for creating such a wicked awesome skit. Video in the next few days, hopefully.

ETA: There's a picture of us on the results page! Can you guess the theme?

The problem with rarely drinking caffeine anymore is that when I do drink it, it keeps me awake. I am so smart, s-m-r-t.

I want to make FireNation!Disguise!Suki for D*C now. Even though I'm a decade too old, and I have almost no time between then and now (and I still have to finish Yvaine!). I *WANNA.*

Rogue's coat for SDCC Masq is almost done. All it needs is trim. I'd forgotten a) how much I love tailoring, and b) how much I hate to rush tailoring. It turned out pretty nice, though. Pictures coming this week, possibly before Masq but more likely after.

Okay, let's try this sleeping thing again.
