Its Con time again!!
First I would like to say, when people tell you to not wait till last minute, LISTEN TO THEM! Sorry didn't mean to yell....
I stayed up until 2 A.M. (the morning of the Con) trying to finish my Kiba cosplay. I made 2 shoes (Traditional ninja sandal things), A kunai pouch (Turned out way to big because I couldn't find any good patterns. Winged it :P ) and a Ninja forehead protector. I did some minor things like attaching fur to a coat and sharpening nails, making fangs, etc. I did all of that on Friday. What a day :P
Back on topic.
Morganton Comic Con Is a smaller local con that really has that small town charm that was kinda lacking at Hickory-Con. Sadly my late night made me a bit forgetful this morning and I forgot my camera, I only have after pictures. Sorry :(
Any who I still can tell you about the vendors!!
This was an art table that had some really cool pieces. The vendor herself cosplayed an original character of hers based off of the anime Bleach. She looked really awesome and had a real zanpakuto sword! (Long sword used by soul reapers)
Her art was on point, I saw a many of my favorite characters in her work. She also does commission work. (At least I think that's what her sign said, I was super busy looking at her art.. She draws Sebastian Michaelis very well. o.o)
I was weak. I bought 2 awesome bracelets from this vendor. (One of the newer SAO bracelets and one of the newer Sebastian bracelets.) The vendor was very fun to talk to and she had a great selection of merchandise, everything from sling bags (Those draw string bags that are great to use at conventions) to the most adorable dog tags. They are the fix for every fandom seeing as they carry a little of something for everyone. It made me so happy to see they had some Ouran HighSchool Host Club stuff.
You should really check them out!
I am going to link their FB page here- Baby Rabiez
Also I can't wait to see their booth at Yama-Con!!!!
This vendor has some of the coolest Crocheted items I have ever seen! It was really tempting to buy something but I had already spent all my money.. Bring more than $18 to a con. She had the most adorable poke-balls. Here is a link to her Deviant Art where she has some more details. Also seems like she might be planning on going to Ichibancon Which is a convention I have looked at for a while.. Who knows maybe I will finally get my Poke ball at Ichibancon!!!
I got to see some good repeat vendors like Lindee and Chris wands, The magic within. Plenty of Comic vendors and Ding Bat Cosplay made an appearance with their own booth/table. ( I never know what to call those *-*) She had some awesome stuff for sale! Not to mention a wonderful cosplay.
That is about all I can report from Morganton, there would have been more if I had my camera with me...
Last but not least, a picture of me. I never could get the fangs to sit just right so I decided to leave them out.
I got 2 compliments from strangers, the first from a man and his friends. "I like your Shikamaru cosplay.".... Yeah, I guess the way I put my hair up under my jacket did look like Shikamaru. Fudge.
A compliment is a compliment!
The second wasn't actually said to me but I over heard it, a girl when we first walked in, kinda had a fan girl moment over Kiba.. Which I am totally cool with because I would have to :P I hated being a disappointment to her, seeing as I am female and all O.o
Glad I washed the jacket cause it ended up shrinking so that's why the zipper does that annoying independent thing.
Any who, Loved blogging with ya :D
