We just attended Megacon in Orlando, Florida and had a blast as always. We were asked to be a part of :devkapalaka:'s sailor scout group and we had fun cosplaying along with :devalouettecosplay:, :devk-chan323:, :devvertigovendetta:, :devhoodedwoman:, and :devexilefayt:.

We've been neglecting this page and slacking with our cosplay stuff lately so sorry about that! Real life comes first. We are starting to get very very excited about our first trip to Atlanta's Dragon*Con in a few weeks though! We have our tickets, flights, and hotel preparations ready to go. All that's left for us to finish is... costumes. Dun dun dunn. Hopefully we will have some new costumes finished in time!

Anyone have any general advice for two D*C newbies? <3

We also posted them on our Facebook  page along with some extra costume contest pics so tag yourself and your friends! <3

We've been a bit busy lately, but expect to see some new costumes from us over the next few months. Next up on our convention list is AFO in Orlando and Dragon*Con in Atlanta!

If all goes according to plan, Hanamaru should be wearing Belle from Disney's Beauty & the Beast, Bayonetta from Bayonetta, and Liara from Mass Effect and Tranquility should be going as Disney's Pocahontas, Jeanne from Bayonetta, and Nabooru from Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Cons:
-Tranquility was allergic to the feather pillows and comforters in the hotel and was sneezing all weekend, so much that one of her fake eyelashes fell off while in costume and she had no way to stick it back on :XD:
- Hanamaru was exhausted by Saturday night and missed the rave since she passed out like an old lady
- A personal tragic event occurred a few days before the trip
-We only dressed up for a couple of hours on Saturday and we didn't feel up to doing any photoshoots so we had to turn a couple of great photographers down. Sorry! :(

This past Saturday Hannah and I attended a brand new con called The Florida Anime Experience. The event was pretty tiny, but there was some great panels and guests like Steve Blum (the voice actor of Spike from Cowboy Bebop) and we got to spend time with our friends :devoh-productions: and :devfantasyninja: in the artist alley. The game room had some amusing video games too. We laughed so much at this:

There was also Para Para Paradise and a game called Gal Gun.
