Cosplay Community

Something that I talked with Jim Gogal, President of PJCS, was the cosplay community that Tekko and other conventions offer.  I had asked Jim about regulating and maintaining the rules towards cosplays and props.  Jim’s was not too surprising.  He stated that the staff and security at Tekko do not need to regulate everything so much because the cosplayers themselves… Read more →

Nintendo 3DS

So I have always been a fan of Nintendo’s handhelds and I just got done watching the video for Nintendo Direct and I am really happy with them continuing a lot of games.

Its Morphing Time!!

Its not every day that you get to sit down and chat with one of the most prodominant childhood icon, let alone two.  I had the opportunity at Tekkoshocon to sit down with both Tony Oliver and David Feilding.  Both worked on The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers (Oliver co producer, Feilding the voice of Zordon).  It was a once in… Read more →

All Worth While

Every once in awhile there comes an opportunity that makes everything we do as cosplayers worth while. There comes a time when all the criticisms and negative stereotypes fade away to be replaced with seeing a childs face light up. Especially if that child is ill. Over the past few weeks Tom was working with a group of people to… Read more →

Creating

Phew! The past few weeks we all have been working hard at making costumes and props.  Some for ourselves and some for others.  Last night Tom was working on some lighting effects for a staff that a friend of ours has.  He was able to make the crystal at the top of the staff shine with the flip of a… Read more →
