After-con report
May. 28th, 2007 12:30 pmAnime North is over and done with, it was pretty cool! Me, Link, my friend Fauve and her fiancé went together on saturday. We had to wait two hours in line to get in. Next time I go for a con, i'll definitly buy my tickets before hand! However, the time we waited in line went by really fast because every two minutes we went nuts and said "Oh my god it's *insert name here* from *insert name here* and it's a wicked costume! Take a picture!" So while we were in line, I took like a hundred pictures or so.
I got a t-shirt, a Vivi Plushie, a Packman ghost plushie, a few mangas...I wanted to buy several doujins, cds and stuff. I tried finding some Ichigo x Rukia doujins (Bleach) however all the doujins stations had sold them earlier in the morning. Apparently, non-yaoi couples from Bleach don't sell that well, so they only brough a few of Ichiruki8 and apparently all three booths had sold the ichiruki stuff to the same person dressed as LInk (Legend of Zelda). I wish I could have found that LInk and asked him if I could have at least one, but LInk was a very popular costume that year!
The really popular costumes were Bleach, Zelda, Naruto (ninja's by the ton!), Sailor moon (the whole friggin' cast!!! including villains!) and Anything related to Cloud (aka Final Fantasy 7, Advent children and Kingdom Hearts).
Here are some photos! I think they look great!
That's all for photos. The con made me realise that it was high time I started on my doujins/fanarts. Next time, when con season hits Ottawa, I should rent a table. Heck, a lot of the artists selling their stuff are very good, but others are relativly ordinary. I believe my stuff could sell well if I wanted it to. I just need to find a few good ideas, possibly not all slayers related. I'd love to do a Zelda Doujin and a Bleach Doujin...
