#con season

[ethereal-w0lf]

Con season is getting close so ladies, gentlemen and any other configuration of being here are some con tips, etiquette and advice 

- look for the quiet room on the map. Most cons have quiet rooms or if you get overwhelmed. Find it on the map before you go so you can know how far you are from it.

- shower after every con day. I don’t care how hygienic you think you are. AT THE END OF YOUR CON DAYS SHOWER! I DONT CARE HOW TIRED YOU ARE EITHER!!! Especially heat this advice if you wear a wig, fursuit, helmet or any other item that collects sweat or covers your hair.

-Don’t take any drinks that aren’t from official stands.

-don’t go alone as a minor and if you are adult a group is still safer.

-ask for photos. And respect the answers! They usually say yes but if it’s a no that’s fine!

-pack your own food. Some of the food stands are hard to find and it will make life easier if you bring some food if your own

-WATER! I cannot stress how warm conventions get drink your damn water!

- say thanks to the cosplay repair people out and about!

-bring a big bag, trust me, you’ll end up buying something that’s more convenient to put in the backpack than it is to hold in your hands.

- Bring more money than you expect to spend. I’ve made this mistake and it’s better to over prepare.

-ask before touching or recording a cosplayer.

-if you bring young kids do expect them to see things that aren’t PG. such as body pillow cases, sexual cosplays, inappropriate music and swearing.

Finished selling at Rogue Comic Con in Medford yesterday and the turnout was great even though it rained the whole time. Will be updating and opening my store tomorrow with new items and then getting back to work for the next con in June!

If you go to cons for meet-and-greets or to see actors talk in panels and don't spend a lot of time in Artist Alley, I really want to encourage you, should the strikes affect your usual con experience, to show up and walk around more than you usually do.

Maybe you won't find anything that piques your interest, but also, you might! Artist Alley and the Exhibitor Area may have stuff that's absolutely your style and enjoyment. People make all sorts of fun stuff! I've got stickers and keychains and indie comics and earrings and bookmarks and t-shirts and tote bags and shorts and bath bombs and makeup that I found just by walking around.

I'm sorry your usual con experience may not exist this time around, but I hope you'll still have a good time just seeing what there is to see possibly more than you usually do.s

Finally leaving for Närcon tomorrow!

First a long roadtrip tomorrow, then three days full of con fun, and then home again Sunday!

All of the cosplays have turned out great, I have a new dress for Louise with a better color, Denki has a whole new outfit including shoes in his colors, and the brand new Hello Kitty turned out cute as hell!! 

The weather is a little dodgy on Thursday, just a few hours of potential rain, and then it looks perfect elsewise!

So I guess I never posted my convention line up?

I'll be at these conventions over the summer! I'll add onto this if more opportunities pop up!

When you go the entirety of con season believing the cosplayers are the most amazing, kind people ever and then on the last day of your streak you get bullied by someone in a velvet cosplay (trolls band together varitey)
