This year I attended Anime Expo for all four days and stayed in a hotel with six other people. The weekend went by smoothly. For this year's con, I wanted to cosplay both Skyrim and Disgaea 5 (for Red Moon Day!), but I wasn't able to complete my Disgaea costume on time. The wig was killer, and I couldn't finish styling it. It's alright though, because I can just wear it to future cons ^^. Here are pictures of my Elven Armor from Skyrim: I had originally wanted to make an Argonian tail to match my in-game character but I wasn't sure how to tackle the tail. I might attempt to make it in the future though. (I'll include more information on my costume construction in a separate blog post.) Anyways, I dressed in Skyrim for two hours on Saturday and half-day on Sunday. While I was in costume I met an Argonian Maid and freaked out. She was super cute. I also took a picture with the giant NIS Prinny twice. Once while I was in costume, and once while I was out. I bought a Prinny hat specifically to wear it to the Red Moon Day gathering lol. When I got there, the NIS staff gave out free stuff and a very premium looking silver pin. Sometime during the expo, I also found an amazing Tales stand in the exhibit hall. I love Luke, Ludger, and Jude so ofc I had to take a picture. I don't know much about Asbel though. I will probably love him too if I play the game (which I will, eventually). Other interesting things happened while I was at con too, but as usual, I didn't take too many pictures. Now on to the merchandise! Some of these were bought, and some were free. Left: Sprout Clip, Tales Keychains, Nyanboard, Gigi Doll, Prinny Hat
Center: Atelier Sophie Art Book, Ensemble Stars Art Book, OLDCODEX CD, and ticket stub Right (all the free stuff): Mugen Souls Art Book, Prinny Pin, Atelier Meruru Art Book, Natsume Yuujinchou bookmark, Yuru Yuri Pin, Twin Star Exorcist Talismans, The Pilot's Love Song Stickers One more thing I gotta mention! The concert for OLDCODEX and FLOW was really good! I wanted to get FLOW's CD as well, but it was sold out. I never went to any of the AX concerts before, so this was a real treat. Y'know how sometimes bands sound different in-person compared to their audio files? Well, they sounded great in-person too. So I'll be going to future concerts from now on. That wraps up my post. The next cons I'll be attending are probably Anime California and Anime Los Angeles (Not 100% for either though).

AboutHi I'm RQ and this is where I blog about my cosplay and daily life.
*I'm taking a break from cosplay.
Looking back at what I wrote in my posts make me cringe, but I'll leave this blog up in case people still want to use my cosplay progress/WIPs as a resource for their own projects. Categories
