DragonCon is coming!
Well, sort of.
DragonCon, one of the big conventions we like to attend, usually takes place over labor day weekend in September. Since it’s still September now, you may be wondering while I mention that it’s “Coming”. That is because THIS time, we are planning in advance! Both Sarah and I are working on costumes for NEXT DragonCon, and we are getting the jump on them so we don’t end up scrambling at the end of the year trying to get them done.
The big costume I have planned for D*C is Harry Dresden. He is a character from the books “The Dresden Files” which is a Mystery series set in a supernatural world. I had enough friends get on me for not reading the books that I finally broke down and dove into them. I love the series and realized that I had most of what I needed already and just needed to assemble. The results are as follows:
The Book Cover shot, thus the hat.
Important elements: Black leather duster, shield bracelet, power rings on each finger, leather glove on left (burned) hand, Pentacle amulet, Runed Staff, Bob the Spirit skull.
Still needing work: Blasting Rod, more solid electronics for Bob the skull, and potentially a new Shield Bracelet.
Our goal is to have a group of Dresden costumers at the 2013 DragonCon, Sarah is going to be Elaine, and we have a Thomas and Lara as well.
