convention recap
Below you’ll find my blog posts about various conventions we've attended over the years, including recaps and photos. This tag and the tag "convention reports" are pretty much interchangeable. I rarely type up a full report these days, so you're more likely to find convention or event photos tagged by just the convention name.

A few Horrorfest Pics
Halloween is 20 days away and I’ve done nothing on my Halloween costume. I’ve got all the stuff for it! I just haven’t done anything.

Post-Dragoncon 05 again
First and foremost I wanted to write about Stitch. Since I didn’t get to write about him at all while making him, since Ash wanted him kept secret. This project has been on my mind since April, when we first came up with the skit idea while swimming at C3. I started out by finding a front shot of his…

C3, Queen Amidala, Mara Jade, and A-Kon
C3, costume wise… I wore my Imperial Officer on Thursday morning – not much to say there, except I still want new pants and a new rank insignia thingie.
