This was our first SeishunCon. We ended up missing the first one because we where a bit busy getting Married. It was a great experience, we hosted our first Panel (which was full) and our first Artist Alley booth.
First off I was impressed with some of the cosplays at the con, I was expecting more casual comfortable costumes but some people really went all out. I took some photos of my favorites.
Adam and I were chosen as one of the featured cosplayers for Japanators coverage on International Cosplay Day. We were interviewed by Lauren

With Momocon coming up Adam and I have decided to try and make a new cosplay for this con. We have been working on and off since January and still have quite a bit to do. Since I have been wanting to cosplay from Vocaloid for awhile and already had Mikus wig we decided to cosplay Miku and Kaito together.
We are thinking about adding an out of state con like MTAC or something else in the south east. We have been asking for recommendations to see what we should add for 2011 con season. So let me know what cons are worth the trip and which ones to avoid.
This year we finally decided to rewear Jasmine and Aladdin after so many request. We are also upgrading some parts of the costume to look a bit better hopefully.
I still haven't posted the photos from Anime Day Atlanta and I WILL post those before I post my Dragon*Con photos. Things have gotten a little crazy so I haven't been able to update my site as much.
But we will be at Dragon*Con and AWA this year. So if you see us say Hi.
It's been awhile since I have posted. Life has gotten a bit crazy lately. I haven't focused much on Cosplay because I have been in Work and Wedding Mode.
We have decided to focus more on cosplay this summer so we can bring back Jasmine and Aladdin. This time I will focus on getting better photos and making the costume more comfortable for me and fix some of the details that I think we could have done better. I will be making an alternate design of hers as well. Hopefully all will work out.
The start of the Con season is approaching for me. Momocon is the first convention of the year for me. Unfortunately I don't end up going to any other conventions till Dragon*Con.
We are starting to plan ideas for cosplays but we will see what we end up actually having time for.
This past month has been pretty hectic. I moved to Atlanta and the weekend after the move I went to Dragon*Con.
Dragon*Con was a lot of fun, it was such a different experience. People where so nice and the events where fun. The cosplays where amazing, it was nice to see all different kinds of costumes from almost anything you could think of. I took a ton of photos and I finally got them uploaded.
Shortly after AWA happened and I had a great time when we where actually where. I was doing a lot of last minute costuming that we pretty much missed all of Friday except for the Black and White Ball. The ball was beautiful, I don't remember it being so big the last time we went and it was nice to snack on all of those sweets.
The cosplay site Cosplay Classes has decided to write a blog post about our cosplays. They called it Cosplay Lovers o0o. Alice, the owner if the site, said "when I see there photos, I can feel with happiness, I can feel with the love of them." That makes me so happy because we really do enjoy cosplaying together and we love each other so much. So make sure to show her some love!
IDOL????????? Not Chikezie. I honestly did not think his performance was bad at all, it seemed at moments he had channeled Luther's spirit and I thought it was nice and very classy. Now what shocked me was Simon's response to Kristy Lee Cook's performance. It was not that good and sounded like a bad pageant performance or something you would hear at a Rodeo. Simon I am so disappointed in you and that you did not call her out at all. She is becoming similar to Carmen a few seasons back. Bad but keeps getting voting through anyways while people who are far better get voted off.
Dancing with the stars was pretty much expected. Penn had problems with those huge feet and Monica just was too stiff. I was so happy that Shannon from American Pie, she really did a great job her second time out. Kristy was good as expected. I also found out why Elvis's wifes face looks the way it does, apparently she had Silicon injected into her face by a Doctor who botched a lot of other peoples face the same way.
This year we are planning on adding Dragon*Con to the list of conventions we typically visit.
We tend to do about 1 or 2 costumes a year. This year we are going to try to top that and also upgrade some older costumes. Obviously these are subject to change. This is more like a wish list.
