Dragoncon 2014

Hey Matrix - I've got a plus one, she's lurked here for a long time and tried to make an account yesterday but couldn't get it to function, her internet is having some issues the last week ( and is also in the midst of the extreme con crunch) so I am posting for her here - Her name was going to be Kaesa and this is her icon on her other online accounts - View attachment 368252


I have added her to the list...
 
Okay guys, so this is my first convention... never been to one before EVER. I'm only 18, so my mom is going with me a day or two because she wants pictures and all that stuff. I have a friend or two I may meet there, and I'm going to be at the GA501st party (just got accepted into the legion yesterday).
So, I will be wearing two costumes... one will be my Vader costume (my 501st one). If anyone sees me there, I should be pretty obvious, I'm almost 6'1 outside of the suit and about 6'7 inside the suit. here's a pic...

My second costume is going to be my Amazing Spider-Man 2 costume replica. I'm picking it up from the seamstress tomorrow, so I'll post a better pick then, but here's a pic for kind of a "sneak peak".

If any of you would like to meet up with me, or anything like that, message me on here, or add me on facebook (Weston Staggs, my profile pic is my with aviators on).
 
I've finished up all the easy parts of my costume and saved all the hard stuff for last, now I'm having trouble forcing myself to get to it. I always freeze up a bit before I try something I've never done before. I guess I really just need to go for it. Even if it turns out bad, at least it's done.
 
thanks a ton matrix, sorry its so last minute, she's been trying to set up the account for a couple days and finally gave up until after con

No worries, it wouldn't be Dragoncon with out last minute stuff and planing, haha, my friend at work doesn't know if he can go till Friday...and he only wants to go on Saturday....now that's last minute...hahahha

The Samurai Batman armor is coming along. So glad that I don't have to do anymore lacing. Very time consuming and tedious.
I still have a long way to go and only 3ish days left to get it done. Long crazy nights ahead!!!


Kudos to you Sir, I just counted your outfit, you have more X's then me, so I commend you on that, I still have to do mine, finally found the right cording / rope...

I comend you on that, I took the day off from work to catch up once again...I knocked out the hardest things, now all I have left are a lot of little things...

Heres my progress....

Hi MatrixSpoon,

I'm a little late to this thread. When and where is the RPF meet-up and could you please add me to the badge list? My wife and I will be staying at the Hyatt. We'll be taking a cab, since we live about 2 miles away :). We have 3 sets of costumes:

Professors Snape and McGonagall:

The Gray Lady and Nearly Headless Nick (wearing these in the parade):

Prof. Trelawney, and Neville's Boggart:

Hope to see y'all there!

I wish I could take a day off right now (and not just because we've got a stressful deadline on Thursday). But I already had to miss a day last week and I'm missing three for the con, so it's unfortunately not an option. I'm almost done with my plans for tonight, though.
 
No worries, it wouldn't be Dragoncon with out last minute stuff and planing, haha, my friend at work doesn't know if he can go till Friday...and he only wants to go on Saturday....now that's last minute...hahahha
