Dragoncon 2012

My first time - going as a female version of Han Solo - will be accompanied by characters from Black Butler Friday and Female version Avengers Saturday. Not sure if I'm wearing my costume both days yet, though.
 
Yay people from Nashville!

I think this is my 7th dragon*con this year... gets bigger and crazier every time.
 
This is my 4th year as I missed 2010. Wont miss another year.

Going for my second year. Really excited, since last year I just did a bunch of rather unremarkable closet costumes, whereas this year I'm kicking it up a few notches. Costumes are:

Booker DeWitt from Bioshock: Infinite
Nick Fury (Original, 616 version)
Daniel Plainview from There Will Be Blood
Hunter S. Thompson
Tuxedo Deadpool
Travis Touchdown from No More Heroes.

Don't be a stranger!
 
I'm heading down to Atlanta on Friday evening and will be there all day Saturday. Hope to see a lot of you on those two days!

Spotting each other should easier with some extra badges. I think Delmustatar created this RPF member badge a couple years ago and I modified that a bit. This is what I'll be wearing while we're at the Con.

LARGE VERSION HERE for anyone interested in modifying it for their own use (sorry for the pixelization... I basically just moved stuff around rather than re-designing the badge).

If you see me, please, please introduce yourself - I'd love to put some faces with usernames! :):thumbsup
 
That's great, Indie! Maybe we could put our real name on there somewhere too?

If everyone had one of these at the meet up(s) it would be so much easier to find each other!
 
Woohoo Nashvillians! (Yep, I'm another one)

This will be my first official Dragoncon, very excited! Here's what I'll be trucking in...


  1. Belle - Beauty and the Beast - blue provincial dress
  2. Awani the Deer Faerie - original
  3. Selina Kyle - The Dark Knight Rises - Train Station outfit
  4. Femme Loki - Avengers - original
  5. Chell - Portal 2 - pajamas (everyone has geeky pajamas....right?
I second/third/fourth a Thursday RPF meetup! (I'll actually be in town Monday visiting with friends, so an early Dragoncon meetup is fine with me.)

This is nice and all, but shouldn't we be getting RPF staff approval to do this first?

I'm printing one of these tonight. Haven't been here long, and just getting into costuming. Would really enjoy meeting some people now to hopefully talk more with later...

I have had one response from Abbydarkstar who said in another thread she was going to see what's going on with the meetup for Dcon. She thanked me for getting it started in here but didn't respond to my question about a badge. At the time I asked her about having the staff make one, I didn't know there had been one from previous years.


Maybe they're swamped with Celebration or making costumes or something.

Badges would work best for me because I don't remember names well and most people don't look like their avatar. :p I can just imagine myself in a crowded place with RPFers and not even know it.

That said, if anyone spots me, say something! I'm not sure what I'm wearing on Thursday night, but we might be my husband in Dread Pirate Roberts and me in Dread Pirate Buttercup (basically his costume only in red). That's if I can get the costumes done.

(but I will look for your hat!)

Glad you're making it over again, Chris. It was cool meeting you and Martin last year...I'll look for you in your spot-on Captain Jack uniform.
