Thoughts of AE2008
In all honesty I am extremely tired! I didn't actually do much that pertained to the convention itself other than go through the artist alley and the vendor's area. I'm glad to have met [info]felys_sho, [info]kurot, [info]miko_piko and pockynomiko's friend (which I am so stupid for not having asked for her name) at the artist alley. There was also some other amazing artists there and I was really impressed in general.
The vendor's room this year was arranged very differently. In my opinion the layout's a lot better than what they had at SFU. [info]sekitx2, seeing that line up on Saturday, you must have been busy as hell and making some good $ there. Thanks for showing me that sexy Gokudera folder... You knew I just couldn't resist it XD

EDIT: Oh, I got this comment quite often about my cosplay this year. Apparently I change my look so much from costume to costume that people found it hard to recognize me... XD

A picture of my Friday costume.




My Tomoyo on Saturday.




And to end off...



A lot more photos need to be processed and I'll be posting more cosplay pictures when the photographers are done with processing them.

As I look at the pictures, I can definitely say that I do not know the characters. Nevertheless, that last picture is photo realistic. It could have been a screen shot from some movie. I swear ;)

I have my friend to thank for that last picture (he's actually in the picture but you can barely see him ;)) The equipment he had was cool. But I will pass on your comment to him :) He will be happy I'm sure.

Yup, made the froggie-phone myself. I have extra materials to make a few more so I was thinking I might make them to sell if anyone was interested.

LOL to be honest, Ranka --> Gokudera would seem quite unlikely, so I'm not surprised people didn't recognize you. XDD but you're the second or third person I know who's cosplayed both, and you do an awesome job.

Love the second photo a lot. xD

I actually went from Ranka -> Tomoyo (from Tsubasa) -> Gokudera. 3 very different personalities I would have to say.
And thank you for the compliments X3

Believe me, I was cracking up when I saw some of those omake photos as well. We were really doing some random things and I'm surprised they turned out so well! The person @ the corner is actually our photographer ;)

I dig your Tomoyo-Hime, but that last picture, damn. That's just badass.

The last picture is a character from the series Katekyo Hitman Reborn. His name is Gokudera Hayato. But all the other members in the photo are either not in cosplay, or not from the series. We just did this for fun :D
