Only 29 days to go! Its going to be our first Comic con. My wife bought the entry tickets and a photo shoot with Linda Hamilton for a present for my 30th. (I am using the account she set up to ask questions about it )

 

We are both looking forward to it, but we are hoping we don't spend all our money there. Too many celebs that we want to meet and have photos with :smile:

 

On the Saturday we will be dressing up as Sarah and Chuck from Chuck. It should look good to get a photo with Linda Hamilton while dressed as Chuck :thumbup:

 

So guys keep an eye out for us and feel free to come and say hello.

This will be our first Comic con :dance: and we are both looking forward to it! Got our costumes sorted already. But I am just wondering if there is any etiquette with regards to having photos with other people in cosplay or if/when people ask for a photo with you? As I have never done this before I am a bit clueless. I also hope people like our costumes.

 

Just be nice, Pod0509 :) If you spot a lot of people taking pics of/with some cosplayers who you also like, maybe try and get in there, and have/take your pic at the same time. This happened with Matt 10th Doctor and Matt 11th Doctor (you all know who I mean) at Collectormania. Maybe have something ready to say if people ask about your costume when they ask for a pic with you :)

I shall be re-wearing Zatanna from DC Comics on the Saturday with my bf sjbonnar as the Penguin but my Sunday cosplay isn't set yet, it might be Hermione Granger from Prisoner of Azkaban. I still have Amanda Young (in the reverse bear trap) from Saw and Sara Sidle from CSI on my to do list also.

Hey! I'm going to be doing my first con cosplay this year and I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be doing Green Arrow / the vigilante from the new Arrow tv show on Saturday and either Malcolm Reynolds or early DS9 Star Fleet uniform on Sunday, not decided which yet. Can't wait to see everyone else's costumes. Sounds like there's going to be lots of fun there.

I'll look out for you naurarwen. I'm looking forward to getting photos with everyone and swapping costuming stories, tips and tricks!

 

Well if I miss you on the Sat I'll be wearing Selene from Underworld on Sunday and at some points hanging round the costume group Star Warriors table.

Happy to say that so far all my costume plans are the same. Fri: Gretel from the new Hansel and Gretel Witch Hunters, Sat: Female Sub Zero and Sun: Selene from Underworld. Selene is almost finished so yay. Also my boyfriend is gonna do a bit of dress up at LFCC. He's doing a nice simple Happy Hogan to go with our friends Tony Stark on Sat and David from Underworld to go with my Selene

 

Yay! For Hansel and Gretel. I'll be your Hansel on Friday.

 

The rest of my plans are as follows; Legolas from Lord of the Rings (first time wear this costume in a long time) and then Jaime Lannister from Game of Thrones. I was going to wear Jaime on Sat and then Leggy on Sun but now that is switching around due to a Lord of the Rings group forming on Sat. Others are welcome to join us ^_^

 

Could we do a GoT gathering on sunday? I have Daenerys Joffrey Jon Snow and Drogon (the dragon)
