Acendio 8

Vacation Snape is 100% fanon, and he’s seen in many fanfics, although not as comical as my portrayal. My vacation Snape is happy, he’s not working and the war is over, and he possesses a time turner for a never ending vacation. ;> The costume is off the rack, the pants come from the ghost/in spirit Snape suit, and the Aloha shirt is a ( Read more... )

Augusta Longbottom cosplay. This is probably the second time I’ve worn Augusta to an offical con. She was at con for Infinitus in 2010. Augusta did not make it to Aeternitas due to Bellatrix cosplay, and lots of Snape due to the TPP auction. So she went to Acendio.

Other cosplayers. This post has a lot of random pics that I take for no other reason than to simply take pics, other pics here are simply happy opportunties.

These pics have been cropped and groomed.

All pics and more are on the Droxy FLIKR account.

Acendio con post 3- Life at con.

In this post we show you what we see at con, when we manage to take pics of it. I tried to make a effort to do this since y’all wanted the vicarious experience.

So far I’ve shown you the room, registration, art, and the writers hall. I also provided the link to massive photo group on FLIKR. The massive photo group is ( Read more... )

So we fly in Wednesday before con. Irish and I managed to snag dinner at an Italian restaurant at the hotel. It was good. They had excellent bread!

We sleep, get up at 7:30 Am or 8am. Thursday is a light day for Acendio, but it is a busy day for a cosplayer and a good day to be a cosplayer because folks arriving on Thursday get the full impact of it ( Read more... )

I've simply been blown away by the level of chattiness on facebroke. OMG! 200+ emails, which is the only way I can really deal with FB right now ( Read more... )
