MFF 2024 Con Report
a year ago
General
Hello all! Back again for my annual journal returning from MFF '24 which is my 18th MFF!
Another great year as usual and I think a lot better layout than the previous year. It felt pretty different this time around since the Artist Alley moved into the convention center lower level in the same area as Line-con for standing in line for badges, so it kinda felt more like a garage/warehouse but once people starting filing in and commissioning art, it felt like old times. Plus, there was no line to get into AA this year unlike last year so that's a total plus! In addition to that change, I was also rooming in the Embassy Suites this year which marks the very first year my room group did not get in the Hyatt Regency O'hare. It ended up being a good thing as we had 5 people rooming this year and there was no way we could make the Hyatt single king bed room work comfortably. That and they had breakfast included which was a great way for this thicc dragon to start the day! Thank you to everyone who stopped by my table and got a pencil commission and apologies to those who arrived after I filled up after the first day. It means so much to me that folks still come to me for art to this very day, I'm very grateful!
Ultra-huge thanks to
ChevellesGarage for letting me wear her Chevelle fursuit again for a couple hours on Thursday in the main con hotel, I had an amazing time! So if you saw the fursuit that night, that was me! Being all thicc n' juicy and getting to do some dancing and romping around was kinda indescribable. I'm kinda addicted to it. π
In case you haven't seen my New Blyzz OC Update, I'm considering getting her made into a fursuit... I have a few suitmakers in mind, but I'm open to suggestions! πππ€π€
In other news, I recently met someone new, and for the first time in a long while, I can't get enough of them. They know about my 'fun' art and are supportive! Overall I'm doing quite peachy; still working the same job, and keeping up with my workout routine. Goals for next year includes getting art of my new OC update dragon; a LOT more art (any thiccy artists open currently?). Hoping to finally tackle that backlog I've been meaning to post of my own art in 2025. If it's as productive as 2024, I'd say I'm in good shape for smut production. >:3
Big thanks to
glitcher007 and
Jyinxx for the trade art!

I got my suit made by lemonbrat. They were great people to work with and I love their style.

That's who made Chevelle's suit, which I tried on and LOVE. They're currently my #1 choice.

I'm glad you had a great time again, sad I couldn't make it this year as I had to ferry a friend back and forth to Pax Unplugged here in Philly. One year dammit lol.

Sounds like you're doing well, glad to hear it. :) I've never been to MFF but I do have family a state or two over so maybe I can swing it next year. I also haven't been to a furry convention but I've met fursuiters and people with the fursona name badges at other geeky places so maybe it's time I finally went?
