Convention for Otaku Generation
SpookyElectric's Otakon 2009 Cosplay Photos
Friday for me was mostly a day to cosplay, rather than take pictures. So, all I really have to show for it is:
General Klaud Nine / Cloud 9 from D.Gray-man worn by animalboything. The concept was: Cloud 9 just returning to find her students all deceased. Warm light from votive candles against cold light of the halls of the order.
Saturday is when I took nearly all the pictures. Starting by trying to make downtown Baltimore look more like a village:
The best pics I think I took at the con are from the Steampunk set:
I saw them while eating lunch, and asked them to call me back later once it got dark. They did. Yay. Unfortunately, my POS Cactus triggers were being extra fail, and only one actually worked. So I had to skim the people with the flash and rely on bounce off walls / columns / reflectors for a secondary light.
Then a panel on the benefits of facism:
And finally D.Gray-crack.
...and perhaps my favorite pictures for in-characterness:
Bak (D.Gray-man) is the founding member of the Dark Order's Creepy Photographer Brigade.
Next are ComicCon pics (few days? probably less than a week), then probably Fanime then AX.
