Fur The More Con Report
11 years ago
Oh man...I'm so sad. Well, I will be glad to be home, but this con was awesome. I'm still at the hotel, but taking it easy as the Dead Dog Party got cancelled and everyone seems to have dashed off because of the weather. Highlights of the con for me was mostly being in suit. This was the first furcon I got to go out in full suit as Tardis Kitty and I'm so happy with the reactions she got. People seemed to love her and that makes me so happy! I hope to track down some of the pics taken of her. My favorite bit was that almost every encounter with TK went something like this:
"Awww, a blue kitty! I love your glowy eyes."
(Show them my Doctor plushie)
"Cool, you're got The Doctor!"
(Turn around to show my 'panels')
"OMG! You're the TARDIS!!"
(Happy dance)
Thank you to everyone who took my pic and gave me hugs and played around with me. It's nice for someone who's a bit shy, like me, to have an outlet to walk up to strangers and get hugs and make them happy. Fursuiting is just so amazing. <3
Art Jam...I haven't gotten to do an art jam in like ten years, back when I actually had a group I went to cons with, so being able to hang out and draw until 1 am was just so much fun. I know I'm not always the most outgoing or talkative person but I love being around others and laughing and listening to the stories. :) Another good time was getting invited to learn about the awesome community of Wyrm handlers. Such a nice and welcoming group you all are. It was storytime with Hopeful Monsters Studio! <3 I'm sure next con I'll be among the masses collecting new Wyrms.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by my table. I appreciate all of the feedback and the compliments on my work. I do promise to have more sizes next year! So, overall, sales were a bit disappointing, but I'm not too worried about that. I plan to put the items I didn't sell up for sale here over the next couple of days. There will be heads, tails and lots of paws.
Already looking forward to 2015! Thank you Fur The More staff and volunteers. You all are amazing for the work you do!
