I'm alive! And what a trip it has been!
10 years ago
Hey everyone!
What a crazy few months it has been! It's felt like back to back cons (even though only two were really back to back ) and I feel like I'm just catching up now! Let's start where all the madness began:
April- Calgary Comic Expo
This was pretty much where the insanity started! I ended up winning a VIP pass which got me to the front of many lines I wouldn't have originally hopped into. I went with
lucifur and
maestro . On the Friday, I got to meet Neil Patrick Harris (and internally lost my mind !!!) as well as Luci and I got to see the Final Fantasy Orchestra which was super rad. (if you don't know already, I adore orchestrated videogame music).
On the Saturday, Masetro arrived, we went to the con again, saw the people, did the things, scored the goals, got the points, I became a hobbit ( I had ears attached professional at the WETA booth). The day ended after a delicious meal at Melrose and seeing the makeup panel that WETA put on. Sunday was sleep and recover day.
Sad April News
My job decided they no longer wanted me and I was released back into the wild to fend for myself once again. While at the time this was stressful and sad, it's allowed me to move on to what I love and I hope you will all help me continue on this journey with fursuit building and art.
MAY OHMYGOSHMAY - Fur-Eh and Otafest
FUR EH
Fur Eh was mainly a blurr for me, if I wasn't at my dealers table, I was hosting a panel, if I wasn't hosting a panel, I was at my dealers table, if I was at neither of those places and dealers was closed? I was in my suit somewhere. There really is not full story I can write for this con other than IT WAS AWESOME! I met so many amazing new people, reconnected with old friends, and suited more than I have in a year! See y'all next year fuzzies!
Otafest!
I originally was only going to this con to host a panel and leave, but ended up going earlier than I intended to, inadvertantly reconnected with a friend I haven't seen in eons (with a good push from
Lucifur ) and my panel was a huge success.
I ran the Prop Building 101 panel which was packed and full of so many amazing costumes, people, and questions. Here's hoping I can come back next year!
What is on the horizon in moons to come for this panda? I'm hoping to open for more commissions soon as I quietly prepare for Animethon in August. I will be uploading photos in the next week or so once I reassemble my office.
I cannot thank you all for your amazing support so far and here's hoping it only goes up from here!
See you on the flip side space cowboy!
Cheers,
