Whauw!!! This is AWESOME!! the army of Yautja's...HOEHA!!

Also the banner ..very impressive.

All the costumes have something.. something different and something special..
colour combo's, native american, SIZE!!!, dreads.. got not enough words to say it all..

whauw..double whauw...

P.S. this is a good thing to see, because on 1 of the biggest conventions in Europe (FACTS 2008, 11-12 october 2008 in Gent, Belgium) I'll carry the flag of the Hunters Lair, hopefully more fellow predators will be there. Cause a pack of predators are more awesome...

We'll see...

This sounds kinda corny, but the banner signing photo conveys a ritual being performed that has a kind of reverence and solemnity.

Ok, you all have seen the during part of our hunt. Here is some video of the before/prep time and some video of the aftermath. Warning, the aftermath vid is tad on the sweaty side.

Before Con in the hotel room. Three Preds suiting up with the help of Elder Dave and Greyback.

The aftermath. I am filming and im shaking like crackhead becuase im friggin tired, dehydrated, and wore the hell out. Warning, its kida gross but, funny as hell. Enjoy!

Carlart,

not corny at all.... the minute that banner went horizontal I thought of the flag-folding ceremony... goosebump time!

My suit held up pretty damn good. I unpacked it and found the following issues:

Paint:
Rubbed off around wrists, ankles, and neck. Pretty bad but, it is from three suit ups. So, accually not too bad. The hands/wrists the worst.
Paint rubbed off mandibles a bit from bio rubbing.

Damage:
Two dreads torn at the head
Skin seam busted at elbow @ 3" long
A 2" crack in the left chest armor under my arm
Velcro closure on left foot came unglued

All in all not to bad for 40,000+ people all around and bumping into you for 6 hours.

Anybody else have issues? Damon had a couple I think.
