Back from MWFF

General
I'm so glad I have the day off today, and with that thought, not looking to go back to work tomorrow.
MWFF this year was great, and I enjoyed it a lot! Although I'm not one who attends actual con stuff much, it isn't difficult to see that the con is well done by the staff just by walking through it.
For me cons have always been a social thing, and this one was great in terms of the number of people that I knew who went there. Sorry to anyone who I didn't spend more time with. That's unfortunately now the nature of a large size con.
I managed to get my new suit out for a bit at this con and in it's not-completed state at FurFright and I think I did alright with it. A few people managed to figure out what I was trying to make so that's cool. Basically it is a shiba inu in the style of what a good chunk of the Japanese fursuits look like. I'm going to have to make some changes to the head to deal with an issue, but otherwise it turned out well. I've been debating a name for him, but I'll leave that in my next post.
I've come to enjoy people watching at cons, and MFF is a good one for that with their large lobby and stairs leading from the lower lobby/con space to the hotel check-in lobby. It is especially cool to see all the fursuits out there and I continue to marvel at the level of quality and appeal the suits have compared to a mere 10 year ago. Sure there was good suits back then as well, but we definitely have more of them and better looking.
Anyhow, I suppose this is more a mish-mash of thoughts more than a con report, but in short I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed MWFF this year. My only wish was I spent more time with people, but with 3 days and lots of people around, that is no doubt difficult to do.
I'll see everyone at MWFF 2014!
