Below you’ll find my blog posts and photos about our trips to the convention MTAC in Nashville, TN. We attended this event in 2001-2002, 2004, 2006-2007, and 2010.

MTAC 2010 Pics
I updated my costume site with Julia. Can’t update the blog on the front page yet, since I still haven’t decided what to do about it and blogger discontinued ftp publishing saturday. MTAC was. I mostly followed Chase around while he shot stuff, so we didn’t really do a lot. I wore Julia twice, Jane most of the day saturday.…

Stuck! at MTAC 2010
We are staying in Nashville another night due to the flooding. We thought we could get out and home since i40west looked ok on the news. We kept looking for info on how the road looked past Nashville and finally heard the road was collapsed (and closed!) around dickson. So we are stuck. There are worse places to be stuck…

Hello from MTAC!
I’m on my phone so excuse any typos! Mtac has been fun so far. It’s really crowded and loud and I feel like I’ve hardly been in costume. I wore Julia last night and was pretty happy with it- I wore Jane the majority of today but I spent most of that time in our photo and posing panels. Put…

Headed to MTAC
We are about to head to MTAC. Well, in about 3 hours. I’ve got the car cleaned out, I’ll load it up in a bit, when Chase gets home we’ll hit the road. I’m going to wear Julia tonight. Chase is have to shoot some stuff (he’s one of the con photographers) so I’ll be tagging along with him playing…

MTAC plans!
We’ll be at MTAC starting tomorrow night! I’m excited 🙂 Saturday morning I’ll be wearing Ms Marvel for Free Comic Book Day, then heading back to the con for Chase and Derek’s photo panel, followed by a posing-for-photography panel. I’m taking Julia from Cowboy Bebop, Anne Boleyn, and Jane from Tarzan to wear the rest of the day, I don’t…

MTAC 2007 Pics!
So MTAC was pretty much ok. Like I said in my previous post, I wore Belle, then Utena — I need to fix the waistband on Belle, as I said last post. Also, it was too darn cold to wear the shoes I brought to wear with this!! LOL I opted for my tennis shoes instead! Link is ambushed by…

Hello from MTAC 2007!
Relaxing in the room here at MTAC for a moment. So far it’s been pretty good. My only complaint about the con itself was finding out “no weapons allowed” just as we got to the door of the dealer’s room – after standing in line for 30 minutes to get there. They said I could check my sword (my fragile…

Costume & Convention Plans
Weekend after next is St Patrick’s Day; we’re planning on going to Atlanta again for their big parade, with the 501st/RL. I’m – hopefully – wearing Queen Amidala, the parade dress. After the mixup last year I’m a little skittish about things falling through again. On top of that, a bunch of our local members have decided not to go.…

a long overdue update
(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I’ve been out of town almost every weekend since…

MTAC 2006 pics!!
here’s our MTAC pics! We went up for a bit Friday night, and most of the day Saturday, and Sunday morning. Friday night was mandos and aliens. I wore Starfire! Saturday I wore Belle first thing in the morning. A friend of ours kindly let us change in their room, so Chase put on his clone, and I put on…

when i had to choose between mtac and midsouthcon
SO my phone completely kicked the bucket. They gave me a new one for free since I was still under contract. It’s nicer than my old one. It has a camera on it. Just what I need, more gadgets. Dude – midsouthcon and mtac are both going to be on the same weekend next year. I can’t go to both.…

when mtac was over
We are leaving Nashville! I hate to leave this broadband connection behind… Yesterday was fun! Kevin got to go onstage in his Link costume, he loved it. I got Best Master Craftsmenship….. which was kind of a given since I was the only Master entered in Craftsmenship, lol. But still! We walked over to the Parthenon and took pictures yesterday…

MTAC 04 Pics!
MTAC photos for today here. Warning: most of it is shots of my Chun-Li costume, Quistis costume or Integra costume. A few random con shots, other cosplayers, and me and Kevin being weird. I wore Tohru, ChunLi, Quistis, Integra and Sana today. I’m quite worn out! Tomorrow will be Asuka and the 2 Belldandys.

mtac 04 Plans
OMG I had my Amidala Lake Gown on the floor, and Indy found it, started scratching around on it to lay on it! I was like “NOOOOO!” I know I shouldn’t leave it on the floor, but she’s never try to sleep on my clothes before, she always finds a blanket. Crazy dog! I have nothing done on my cousins’…

MTAC 2002 pics!
More MTAC pics – here! (edit: link was an old geocities link and now dead, so I removed it.) Ones of me as Lina and Urd (best pic of Urd yet, because I fixed the wig!) and Ash as Yuna x 2 again. I forgot to mention, that of all the people at Otakon that *didn’t* step on my Lina…

when we had fun at mtac
WOOO! Yeah!! I did have fun at mtac!! I was only there one day and spent most of the time at my art table, but it was still a lot of fun. more so than otakon, for the most part. I will write my report soon. Right now I have to get ready for this dumb shower they’re having here…

when it was time to go to mtac
Leaving for MTAC in a few minutes. All week long I have been fighting this horrible zit. I *only* get zits when I’m stressed, which only adds to my stress, of course. Well this one was a doozy. Mom bought me these neutrogena “on the spot” acne patches. Those things are worthless, don’t waste your time. A) they didn’t have…
