Dragoncon 2016

Can I bring Non-RPF members to the meet? I will have have a total of 3 other people with me and we usually try to stay together. Just figured I would ask. :)

By all means feel free to bring them with you...we allow anyone to join the meet up...You will be the only one receiving a custom RPF badge.If they are members then they would need to sign up and join the meet like everyone else. It's the only fare way we try to do things. Thanks for asking...

I am planning on attending the meet. Also do y'all do intro threads for new guys? I'm somewhat unsure where i would post it


I have added your name to the custom badge list. Please be sure to check back closser to the con to verify your still attending the meet as well as we usually ask for more information. We can't wait to meet you...

As for your other question we are fans promoting the RPF. So I'm not sure if you mean y'all as the RPF or our group?...As for the RPF Meetup we have new members attend each year.
 
This is the current and updated RPF Meet Name Listing for Name / Badges, if your name is NOT on this list you will NOT have an RPF Badge, to make sure you have a badge with your name you need to make sure you contact us and let us know, by saying "I'm attending the meet". Or send me a pm and tell me you need your name added to the list. The fist page list will be updated constantly up to Dragoncon. But if you join a few weeks prior to the con we will be having a cut off date, I will try and post that date on the main page as well as the updated forum closer to the event date. Usually in the past is about 3 weeks to a month before the event.

Getting so hyped for DragonCon. When that countdown clock reaches less than 100 Days I think I will explode from Excitement!

Well I started a second helmet due to the other not turning out quite like I wanted.. Anyhow, I dropped it off at the painter today for clear coat. I'm also waiting on a few more items to come in and complete the set but other than that everything is on schedule!

How about yours MatrixSpoon

Glad to hear everything's going well for you. I work at a dollar general distribution center, and I switched from nights to days. I thought I would get so much more done being home by 3 pm and having all this day light to work with. Problem is I'm a night person, ergo Vampire...so when I get home I'm tired and I have migraines all day long. So needless to say I'm going back to night shift, hopefully my body with be back to getting the rest and sleep I used to get and get rid of the migraines and back to working on costumes...

OMG I feel you 100%! I have always been a "Vampire" Sadly I work day shift so basically I get about 3-4 hours of sleep at night. I do most of my best work during the night. Plus there is nothing like binge watching youtube or Game of Thrones (Or any other awesome TV Show) at night! With that said doing cosplay for the fist time has opened my eyes completely on some of the finesse that goes into the planning of this stuff. I am only doing one costume and it has basically taken me almost the entire year just to finish the one. I can't imagine those that are doing more than one and what they are going through.

Thanks, I appreciate that...The costumes I still have to finish, and start working on are , Jango Fett, Star Wars Sith Juggernaut, Loki, Star Wars Sith Inquisitor, Ted from Bill and Ted.
 
I was very surprised at the amount of respect everyone at Dragoncon showed. Last year was my first year and It was mostly a delight. I understand completely about the camera, I left my Surface Pro 3 on a table at the Food Court (Peachtree Center I think) and It was there a good 20 minutes until I realized it. When I went back there were a few Trekkies at the table and the surface was still there. I told them it was mine and they were legit happy about it. Said they were planning to take it to the lost and found! We took a photo and That was it! Restored my Faith in humanity!!!

Well two friends and I are doing a group cosplay... Well only two of us actually fit into a group but it's Daft Punk, with myself as Guy Manuel and one of the others as Thomas Bangalter. Then the other is going to run around as Deadmau5. Didn't want to get too technical for my first cosplay...lol

Here is my Helmet

That is Pretty Sweet! I'm new to the the whole prop and cosplay scene! I did LARP a while back but most of my items were purchased complete then! But going to Dragoncon last year gave me the bug! So I'm Super excited!!! :D
