Wizard World Texas... (largely crossposted from devart)

... was fun. Eeeeeveryone recognized my brother as Cloud, even though he didn't have blonde hair because Wal-Mart was a whore and didn't have temp. spray on stuff. My "costume" wasn't complete :< but at least I got a Wonder Woman shirt out of the whole ordeal. And some shiny silver bangle bracelets.

Oooh I got to meet Hector Cantú and Carlos Castellanos - the guys who do the Baldo comic (it's in like... 200 newspaper nationwide, I believe. I don't remember the exact number, but I do know the Statesman prints it). It was so awesome because 1.) almost that entire row in artist alley was Hispanic artists, and 2.) they were BOTH there! Cantú lives here in Texas, but Castellanos lives in Florida... and they were both there and both signed my book! :3 <3 I love those comics. I got to pass by and pick up two more copies of El Gato Negro, too, but the artist wasn't there because he and his wife where on a retreat. But I got to talk to his brother. He was a real nice guy and put me on teh mailing list. I also got to meet the guy who does Yeni (did I spell that right?). He's on deviantart too so I was like AHA I RECOGNIZED THIS CHARACTER FROM SOMEWHERES!!!!

Artist Alley was smaller this year, though. :< And Jennie Breeden wasn't there. :< But there were more vendors, it seemed. AND AUSTIN BOOKS AND COMICS WAS THERE! LOL They did a double take when they saw me. XD Because I. Am. Eeeeeverywhere MUAJAJAJJAJAJJAJAAAAAAA!!!!

Oh yes. And I bought a kitty hat. So now I have a black hat with cat ears. >.> STFU I THINK IT'S CUTE. And I have two new posters (one of them is about as tall as I am :0 ) but nowhere to put them. :<

Seeing as I only went Saturday, I didn't get to see too many costumes. There were the token Star Wars peeps (:0 Darth Vadar AND TEH DARK SIDE OF TEH FORCE OH SHI) and two Ghostbusters (but one of them forgot his backpack thing :< ). There was also an army guy walking around but that wasn't a costume. >.> (He was kinda hott. Not that I was.... staring or anything. LOL)

AND THERE WERE TWO GREEN LANTERNS OH SHIT. And there was a couple dressed up as Batman and Batwoman and they had a kid and I was like BATMAN SPAWNED OH SHI. And there was another Gambit (eeeeh I didn't really get a good look at him), and a Rogue, and a Phoenix, and a Scarlet Witch, and a Wolverine, too. Yusssssss.

Yes, there was alot of me saying "OH SHI" at this convention.

And there was a mechanical bull.

Yes. And thus ends my report on Saturday at Wizard World Texas.

I'm really hoping no one reads this blog, because I always forget to update it. I'm so bad. It's just that I've been doing alot more stuff in art class and haven't done any finished pieces of non-art-class work. I have alot of doodles all over my notes and I guess I could scan that but... yeah. We'll see. We're supposed to leave for the valley sometime today so I might not get to use the scanner until... shit until the semester is over on Dec. 7th. But yeah.
