i would have liked the armormaking panel to be longer, be more hands on, and more of this is how you make armor for cosplayers who don't know very technical terms. it was more of weeelll jargon jargon blah blah method you've never heard of yap yap yap.

mine are here and i am uploading more at some point so check back: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v310/daystarclarion/fanime09/

ooo i want to play!

integra from hellsing (here)

dragon dude (here)

if you stole any pics of us, a PM would rock as i'm sure this thread will be chock full of replies. thank you :)

Garnet from Final Fantasy 9? (yellow jumpsuit, short hair). If so, I love you in advance.

So, uh, to join the annoying club ... anyone snag pictures of me?

Fri/Sat: Yachiru from Bleach (one of the few I saw...was not with any other Bleach cosplayers if that helps)

Saturday: Garnet from Final Fantasy IX; royal gown. Pictures of this costume would be so awesome because I'm not sure if I can stand wearing it again. (You probably saw me walking around holding up huge folds of the dress to keep myself from falling).

Sunday: Tsunade from Naruto. Also a pretty common one ... I wasn't with any other Naruto cosplayers or anything. I WAS with my boyfriend as Squall...if you got pictures of him (Squall on Sunday only) that'd be nifty too!

Yachiru from Bleach (again!)
Garnet from Final Fantasy IX (remaking the jumpsuit and peasant blouse, and finished making the white mage robe)

I enjoyed the expansion to the artist's alley. Hopefully next year you guys will bring in some more well-known artists, like Scott of VG Cats, for example.

I also would have liked to see one of katie bair's wig workshops.

the schedule was hard to read...and the increased number of panels was kinda useless because who the hell knew what they meant? for example, "damn you internets". Why should i go see this panel when i have no clue what it meant? really vague, pointless panels like that one supply a truly last resort.

I got dragged to the 'how to talk to girls' panel, lingerie edition. let me tell you, that was a waste of time. even my desperate to see boobies guy friends got bored (i'm a girl). obviously the lingerie thing was just to get people to show up, and by the volume of people who left quickly you can see that the panelists failed to keep people's interests. basically, they rambled pointlessly, contradicted each other, and even ran into each other's sentences. it sounds like they didn't plan the panel in the least bit, even the part they were supposed to talk about on their own--without audience interruptions for questions etc. obviously the subject is very subjective and questionable, but the panel was very boring and dry--for men and women alike.

I would like to see an implemented time limit in the game room. Literally, the people playing in the morning are still there in the afternoon. You have to wait in a long line that doesn't move for hours. There MUST be some better way of regulating things so people don't hog the consoles/games for hours.

Um um um.  That's all I can think of right now. Oh, the publicized cosplay gathering was a good idea even though I missed the Bleach & FF gatherings. I had a lot of fun this year, moreso than last!
