All right, it's been a full week since some of this stuff happened, I think it's time to post my con report already. ^^;

First, let me preface this by saying that Animazement 2009 has been, in the history of the eleven conventions I've been to in the past five years, the most fun and just overall best convention I've EVER been to. Yes the new swanky ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm being obnoxious and posting twice in one day. Fortunately this entry is going to be very heavily lj-cut. Starting right after this colon:

Long entry will probably be long. .3. Anyway...

1. I've been plushifying up a storm lately in preparation for NashiCon's Artist's Alley. I've got eight plushie onigiri made so far. If you have a DA you can see them here: http://artikgato.deviantart.com/gallery/#Plushies. If not, then here are what are undoubtedly my two most favorite ones:

I'm also very close to being done with the costume in general. I finally worked out the problems I was having with the dress, and that's coming along nicely. As for what I have left to do:

Okay, so I didn't get nearly as much accomplished as I would've hoped during this three and a half day weekend. Most of my extended weekend was spent with friends, so of course I didn't get much done. But I did manage to finish the hat for my Eruka costume!
