Mega Super Awesome CONVENTION THREAD!!

[baffledSage]

Oh my god... Sakuracon was amazing. 60 or so people all in costume. We had a doc scratch, 3 god tier aradias, a ton of Karkats and Terezis, 8 johns in total (which lead to amusing pictures with vriska)
2 hours of photoshoot because people (or at least 20 people by the end) didn't want to stop.
It was amazing and I wish I had my camera. Either way photos will hit the net soon, somewhere.
(hint hint)

The photos are up in several places, and there are links to them in this thread.

I was the Bro. (It's me!)

[menaicalMechanic]

Hey, is anyone coming down to Fanime con? :O I'm not gunna do anything MSPA related but I'm in the middle of constructing my creeper cosplay and I wanna know if anyone is coming so I can take pictures.

[Jit]

TCAF! TCAF!

It's in like a week!

I'm excited although I don't even know if it qualifies as a con and therefore fits into this thread but whatever Hussie's gonna be there

SO

Who else is hoping/going to go?

[Sergeant Waddle]

A-KON IN A MONTH. Everyone in or near Texas should go, it will be in Dallas.

I'll be cosplaying Dave. :'D

[Artemis]

Hurray, ACen folk! It's so dumb, I'm ACen staff and I didn't even think to check the ACen forums...

I'll be around in my Terezi getup, including the sweet dragon cape I commissioned from Eyes5, some of the time at least when I'm not on duty. I'll have to check the thread on the ACen boards, but do we have an official meetup time/place?

[AlphaKnight]

4:30 on Friday and 6:30 on Saturday according to the ACEN forum people.

[Artemis]

Do we have a set place?

[Annoyance]

There used to be a set place but they're relocating now so I dunno anymore.

Aaaah I can't wait to see you guys! ;~;

[Artemis]

Yeah, I saw the sticky on the ACen forums about some things being relocated, so that's why I was wondering. If all else fails, I'll just start wandering around aimlessly about a half hour early hoping to find people.

Dammit that's what I was going to do... <<

Regardless, I may be getting a Karkat in this as well.
If you see a confused Vriska [and possibly the tallest Karkat you will ever see], please say hi... and help.

[Sergeant Waddle]

IS ABSOLUTELY NO ONE GOING TO A-KON? I KNOW THERE ARE TEXAS PEOPLE HERE THIS MAKES ME SAD. </3

Someonecomeplease. ;_;

[abhorrentConfectioner]

I know some of my roommates are attending A-Kon but they won't be doing Homestuck cosplay.


Is anyone going to attend Dragon*Con or AWA in Atlanta?

[secret drinking]

TCAF! TCAF!

Who else is hoping/going to go?

Yep. I'm headed out there Saturday.

I already have the PS books and I don't think I want a print though so I'll probably be peepin on KC Green mostly.

[Pootsforever]

Maybe going to Connecticon but seeing as I proooooooobably won't see too many HS fans there, I'll wait a bit and go to Otakon instead! Are a lot of you Hamstickers going to that?

Also, NYCC is a 100% definite go for me, but it's way too early to talk about it. (or is it????)

holy SHIT what what what
i heard there was a massive roadblock of homestuck cosplays there but holy fucking shit that number.
If only I could've gotten home from vacation sooner
i coulda been here
;m;

[FiveTail]

Shot in the dark here--anyone headed to Otafest this year?

[Artemis]

ACen meetup update:

The final schedules were posted on the ACen forums, so I'm reposting the Homestuck information here for anyone who didn't see it there.

Friday, 4:30pm: Loading Docks Right
Saturday, 6:30pm: Tree Patch

For the people who have no idea what those locations refer to (like me), there is a Google Maps set up that shows the location of all cosplay meetup areas, and also some other places as well.

I won't be in costume on Friday, though I'll probably come to the shoot and wear my Rose shirt in support. Saturday I'll be there in full dragonsuit Terezi form!

I love you.

But yeah I'm really bad with locations so if any of you ACen goers see me be sure to grab me and pull me in the right direction.

[Artemis]

I will likely be hanging out in the general vicinity of the Tree Patch on Saturday for 15~30 minutes before the meetup, and my dragonsuit is a nice BRIGHT red so I should be easy to spot. Best thing I can suggest to you, or anyone else for that matter, is to head where you think it's going to be a bit early, and if you see a giant red dragon cloak, you know you're in the right spot. :P

Now I'm tempted just to bring out the cloak on Friday to use as a beacon. :P

[Annoyance]

The only thing I'll have as a beacon is a probable 6' 6" Karkat. <<' We still don't know if we're gonna finish his in time but the tall Vriska should at least be going.

But I at least know where the tree patch is so yes. =w=

[Sumokey]

Anyone going to Phoenix Comicon at the end of May?

I know theres a few of you out there, xD

[Cyborg771]

I know at least one person is going to Anime North this year but she's not on the forums so I'll ask here too. Are there any formal plans I may have missed?

[Kitkat]

I'm going to be going to Otafest with three different cosplays for the 3 days with my friend. Dave x John, Gamzee x Karkat and Eridan x Sollux. xD
But I have a feeling there is NO ONE else going as Homestuck people

I'm going to Otafest too!!
I'm going with a friend who is gonna be Gamzee and I'll be going as Karkat
We better see you there

[Raidacab]

Motor City Comic Con next Weekend and Detroit Fanfare in September for anyone in the Detroit area. Not very MSPA oriented, but still, comic conventions if anyone's interested.

[Blueberry]

A couple people posted in the cosplay thread about Motor City.

[poshiyoshi]

Hey, is there going to be an Otakon meetup again? I'd like to know when it is.
