(Oh, and new icon thingie, a scan of that purty badge  Augi did for me. I'm gonna print it and wear the copy; it's too frigging awesome to be lost.)

I guess I should start by giving a bit more info on that con panel I will be hosting. It will be titled "Working with Dinosaurs"; yep, similar to that BBC series. Hey, it sounds cool to me.

This is the description that I submitted to one of the con staff...

"Do you know the difference between sauropods and theropods? What's the best technique for constructing dinosaur characters? Reptilian artist and writer Kaa Bakensobek shows methods and suggestions on how to construct anthropomorphic dinosaurs."

On an unrelated note, this EF will be my first, and I have no idea when (or even *IF*) I will return. This chance of attending may not repeat itself, so if you folks east of the Atlantic want to meet me, you may have to visit good ol' U.S.A. after this.

As for the meme... (Oh, the noes!)

Where are you staying?
In the con hotel.

What day are you getting there?
No idea. I'll be flying into the Netherlands a week or so before the con.

Who will you be with?
Mostly  BurmesePython and  Hyper

Do you do free art or trades?
Nope, sorry. Unless you manage to hit the right buttons.

Do you do commissions/badges?
I'll take requests for pencil sketches.

Do you have prints/CDs?
Both.

What suit(s) will you have?
Most probably my Bakensobek one.

Can I dance with you?
Sorry. I have two left feet.

You're talking to someone, and I would like to say hi, but don't know how, what can I do?
Just say hello. You got nothing to lose. I will apologize beforehand if I can't get back to you as much as you would like.

What is your gender?
Male.

How old are you?
Do you really want to know? Okay, 46. Probably too old for most of ya.

How tall are you?
5'10"

Are you mated?
No, sadly.

Can I touch you?
Hand shakes and hugs only. Anything else is "one strike and your out". Unless we somehow become close enough for more serious stuff.

Can I talk to you?
Please, by all means. Again, you have nothing to lose.

Can I hug you?
Sure.

Can I take photos of you/with you?
Wearing my costume, yes. The real, ugly human me... probably not.

Can I buy you lots of drinks?
Sure, but ask before. There's quite a bunch of stuff I don't like.

Do you drink Alcohol/Smoke?
Neither.

Can I give you lots of money?
Sure! You can buy my stuff. If you wish to give a gift, I won't say no. ;)

Can I hug or snuggle with you?
Hugs, yes. Snuggles, only if you are a close friend.

Can we hang out?
Maybe. Though don't expect me to say/do much; I'm too shy and quiet.

Are you nice?
Other people say I am. Maybe a bit too nice.

Where will you be most of the time during the con?
Maybe in the Dealers Room. Outside of that, no idea.

Other cons you may go to?
FC next year, most probably.
