I'm posting to confirm that I will be in Chesapeake, VA this weekend to attend Anime Mid Atlantic! This will be my first convention since January, and boy does it feel good to be back in the loop. I'll be attending all three days, so I should have plenty of stuff to share by the end of it all. Gonna be sweet!
Who else here is going? I'd absolutely love to meet up with some of you folks if you are!
Not exactly sure on the costume schedule yet, but it's looking good all around. I'm planning on bringing all five of my active cosplays with me, but I want to know what everyone wants to see. I can't make a poll, but the costumes I'll be bringing are...

Captain Jack Harkness (Doctor Who)
---------------------------------------------
Ellis (Left4Dead 2)
---------------------------------------------
Jack (Bioshock)
---------------------------------------------
Rorschach (Watchmen)
---------------------------------------------
Sandman (Sandman Mystery Theater)
---------------------------------------------
That's the general gist of things over here. Hope to see you there!

Cosplay Tutorial: Gas Mask 101
I get a lot of questions about masks when I share my costume work, but the over whelming majority of them are about gas masks. Where to find them, if they're safe, how much they cost, and that kind of thing. Weirdly enough, there aren't really any tutorials on it out there. Go figure! I figured with all the questions I get, there has to be at least some interest out there, so I got to work on my first tutorial.
To meet the needs of my fellow costume and cosplay enthusiasts, I have written Gas Mask 101, the perfect primer for all of your gas-masking needs! It is now posted on my Tumblr page for your reference. This will be the first of many on
Cosplay Semantics: Cosplay or Costume?
I wrote this article for my cosplay blog on Tumblr, but I decided it was worth cross-posting to DA. If you want to share this article with your fellow tumblrites, you can find the original here!

Why are the words "costume" and "cosplay" now completely interchangeable?
At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man, I seriously don't get this. The two are related, but there's a very distinct difference between the two.

I keep getting questions about how to do some of the different things I have in my costumes, and all my cosplay buddies all seem to be on the bandwagon. Judging by that, I figured it was about time! I'll be using this Tumblr page to post tutorials, WIP shots, and other stuff. Should be a great time all around! Give me a follow and I would be absolutely delighted to follow you back. Just drop your tumblr URL in the comments!
If you want to follow me on another page, here's a quick recap of the places you can find my work.
