-------Abunaicon-------
What a great weekend we had in the Netherlands!
Abunaicon was a fantastic event for us, and went far better than we had expected! Despite some of them being early, all our panels did really well, and the cosplay contests were awesome! We met a few familiar faces, but made plenty of new friends! We really hope we can return for next year... Fingers crossed!
-------Alcon-------
And now, time for Alcon!
I'm desperately trying to get costumes finished in time, but at the moment, the line up looks to be:
Matt Miller (Saints Row 3)
Church (Red vs Blue)
Rogue (Xmen)
Tony Stark (Avengers)
Secret Cosplay (Secret stuff!)
[possibly an Xmen First Class costume..]
I *think* that's all of them! We're also doing a whole bunch of panels, listed below
THURSDAY
Bar, 9pm to 11pm == Late Night Panel with Parlé and FDP
..........The Late Night Panel is designed to be a general Q&A where 'anything goes'! Things tend to get a little crazy, and once the alcohol gets flowing, it just gets worse! Don't miss it!
FRIDAY
Talks 2, 2pm to 3pm == Body Painting, Make-up and SFX Panel with Kelly(with non-anime/bishie crossplay makeup done by Jenn)
........Covering all different types of make-up and facepaint, as well as some special fx tips regarding things such as fake beards, contact lenses, fangs etc. Jenn will also be demonstrating some crossplay makeup techniques for a 'manry male' appearance!
Bar, 5pm to 6pm == Cosplay Auction, hosted by Parlé and FDP
....... The Alcon staple Cosplay Auction, this year hosted by ourselves and the FDP chaps. I... have no idea what to expect!
SATURDAY
Talks 1, 1pm to 2pm == Video Making for Youtube with Jenn
.......Jenn tells everyone her filming and video making tips and hints, as well as shows you a bunch of before-and-after editing videos, interspersed with a butt-tonne of gifs!
Talks 2, 2pm to 3pm == Fursuitting 101 with Charlotte and Faruku!Laura
.......Charlotte and her fursuitting partner-in-crime Laura give you the low-down on how to make your own suits! NOTE: There are two fursuit panels on at Alcon, and I'm not sure if Charlotte and Laura are just doing this one, or both.... read your conbook to find out!
SUNDAY
Talks 1, 12noon to 1pm == Avengers Q&A Panel, possibly with videos!
.......The Avengers have been assembled, and are ready to take your questions! An in-character panel, where anything goes!
Talks 2, 2pm to 4pm == Parlé General Q&A
.......A general question and answer panel. Ask us anything about ourselves, our shows, cosplay, make-up, video making.... literally, anything! We may bring along some random funnies to show you!
All of this is, of course, subject to change, so check your con book when you arrive!
NOW I HAVE WORK TO FINISH BEFORE MY BOSS STRANGLES ME.
DFTBA!
