Okay. I'll send you links to photos of all of us later today when I can actually get onto a computer. I think it would be murder to try doing that on my iPod.

I'm really interested, but I've gotta ask, do you charge?  I'm only able to book free shoots due to some financial issues so I always have to ask.

I like that the at con shoots are shorter...we already have 1 photographer, but I'd like to do a shoot with another one too...but we have a big group on Saturday and some people might get antsy and wander off if we're stuck in back to back shoots for like 2 or 2 1/2 hours.
Saturday will be FFXIII, and Sunday will be AC:Brotherhood.

Anyone going as Hope, Vanille, or Snow from FFXIII on Saturday?..
My sister and I have private photoshoots scheduled and are attempting to get everyone from the game. We have really amazing and talented cosplayers for all the other characters, but still have not been able to find a good Hope, Vanille, or Snow. :(

And on either Fri or Sun, is anyone going as anybody from Assassins Creed Brotherhood?  We have a shoot for that too(day still open to change) and need more characters from the game.

I'm not sure we can come to the gathering on Saturday...  :(   We have the FF gathering at 1, and our costumes take like 2 hours to get into, do hair/makeup for, etc. And later Sat we have 2 private FF photoshoots...  So idk. I was so hoping this would be Fri or Sun.

Oh and that Altair armor is amazing. O.O

I'll be Jihl Nabaat and my sister will be back as Lightning with the transforming gunblade for Fanime 2011.
I'm doing Celes too...but since there is only one photoshoot I don't think I'll drag that monstrosity across the country.  Not sure yet.

Hey I was just curious as to whether anyone has ever made or even just has an idea of how to make Orihime from Bleach's shoes from when she is in Las Noches.
I can't even find a legit picture of her entire outfit so I would know what parts of the shoes are black and which parts are white!!!  So I'm completely lost and I am going insane.
I'm having issues making the top that has the cape hanging from it too(not the dress piece or the hakama those are done) but I'm dealing with the top. My main issue now is the shoes for sure.
Any help would be soooooo appreciated!!

I guess I could sign up on the Bleach side since you are so in need of people. I'll be HM Orihime. I was only going to wear it part of Saturday, but I guess I can wear multiple costumes Sunday.
....I look so much better as Konan from Naruto though, but oh well.

I posted this on cosplay.com but anyway my sister is coming too now, as Ty Lee.
And I guess Friday works...but can I just ask a random question?...  Why is there only an Avatar gathering for one day of a 4 day con?  I mean maybe you Californians do it differently and have a different mindset about gatherings/photoshoots but I know at every convention here on the East Coast including Otakon and NYAF, we all do our best to make sure popular series have a gathering for each day. At Otakon last year there was an Avatar gathering for each of the 3 days. So...just curious is all as to why we are only picking 1 day for the Avatar gathering at Fanime.

I'll be there this Fanime(2010) as Konan!  If you need any help running the gathering, I can do that too.

Cosplaying?: Yes...not from Gaia, but not sure who I'll be that day yet.  My signature lists all the possibilities.



And...why are there protesters?...  What are they there for?...  o.O
#11
I'll be there, as 'Fire Lord' Azula.  I wouldn't miss it for the world.
I'm not sure what day would be best yet... I hope we can cooridinate this shoot so it doesn't conflict with the others ones I have to go to- but I do know I'm NOT  a morning person, so afternoon or evening would be best.

Hey, I don't think I posted here yet, so...
I'll be attending as Euphemia, in the DVD art dress.  Just keep me posted on when/where the gathering will be taking place.  :D
#13
I hate to post, because I have nothing to say about the anime or manga right now and feel like I'm just interrupting the conversation, but... I've been waiting for a few days now to post, so whatev.  Just don't hate me, lol, and ignore my post.
Anyway, 2010 will be my first Fanime, so I hope it's as good as everyone tells me it is since I'm flying over from NJ for it.

I'm going to be Orihime, HM version.  I just wanted to get that out there and get added to the list and introduce myself.  Yep, that is all.  :D
#14
Cool, thanks for the idea!!  :)
#15
Hey everyone...  I'll be coming as Konan... 
But, does anyone have any ideas on how to transport 5ft wings on a plane?... Or even on a train, I could always put out the extra cash for a train instead, even though it'd be like 3 days... 
Either way, I can't figure out how, without them breaking...  Damn, maybe I should just save them for Otakon, idk. 

And that is an awesome poster.  :)

Room Needed~

+ Introduction: Hey...  I'm a 23 year old female graduate student, studying Biomedical Science, who lives in NJ.  I know, I know, you're probably thinking wtf am I doing coming all the way out to Fanime?...  Well, I got invited by two friends who live in San Jose, but now there is a rooming issue, and we aren't sure if I can room with their group or not.  So, I decided to take the initiative and find out if I can room somewhere else.  I'm usually shy and reserved, but if you talk to me, that kinda falls away.  This will be my 1st Fanime obviously, and I'm just a little paranoid about going so far alone- with my rooming issues still not resolved on top of it- but I've heard Fanime is one of the best conventions ever, and so I'm hoping to have a good experience, and meet lots of new friends.  Just wanted to add to this after seeing other people's posts- I'm a very clean, meticulous person...I didn't know bahting was an issue with anyone out there, but ew..  I'm definitely not one of those people who sits in a room playing video games for 5 days straight, and never bathes or changes clothes.
 
+ Hotel Information:  I'm willing to stay from Thursday to Monday, but that can be extended if needed(not shortened though), since I don't have my flight booked yet.
Like I say below, I want something very close to the convention, so I don't get lost.

+ Requirements: I don't know San Jose, so I want a hotel VERY close to the convention.
I don't care if the room is just girls, or mixed, but I'd like for the people to be respectable, and if possible, not minors.  I don't care how many are in the room either.
Oh... and I know that this might not go over well, but I will NOT sleep on a floor.  Cots are fine though, and I wouldn't mind paying the extra fee for a cot if no bed was available.  Sofas are fine too.  Just no floor, and I know this will not go over well, but I'm not changing my mind....hopefully I don't have to wind up getting a room on my own though just b/c of this...idk how I'd afford that and my flight, lol.
I'm shy, so I might just seem bitchy, but in all seriousness, I'll want to be able to make friends with people but might be afraid to initiate it- so outgoing/friendly roommates are a plus.  I've never been to Fanime, or anywhere in America off of the East Coast, so someone willing to show me around the convention a little might be nice- not necessary though, I'll have my friends there.
No issues with drinking or partying.
