Panels
Attack on Titan Q&A
-So at this con, I cosplayed Petra on Sunday, and this group was having this panel. They met me while I was volunteering and asked me to be their Petra after my shift was over. I thought that was totally cool!! ^_^ Basically, the panel was all the cosplayers of AOT taking on the personality of their counterparts and answering questions/taking dares from those in the panel crowd while in character.
Gargoyles 20th Anniversary
-This was a panel done by Greg Weismann, one of the industry guests. He is a writer/director/producer. He and a team of individuals created the show Gargoyles for Disney, and this panel was of him speaking of the process that went into making the show what it is that we see now. He also explained certain aspects of the industry and the long and arduous process that involves getting your show accepted by a company.

Cosplay
And here I am including some cool cosplay pics from this year!! I am included in these pictures. ^_^
These were pictures of my friends and I gearing up to do our Alice in Wonderland group cosplay. My friend was Alice and I was the White Rabbit…though I don’t have on that much white, lol.I was the sexy bunny. I made the hat and the ears, and I self-hemmed the dress. ^_^
**My 2 favorite characters in Durarara!!
This was me cosplaying Petra. I got my picture with Levi!!! ^_^ I made my cape, harness, boot covers and wing patches with the help of my mom. We altered the jacket because it was too long at first.
These were members of the Maid Cafe. My friend is at the top.
The last picture was the only person I saw at the con cosplaying Iwatobi Swim Club.
These were the best DRAMAtical Murder cosplays I found at the con. It was awesome!! And this was also the only Sei I saw at the con. ^_^
So I hope you all enjoyed this post and if you can, make it down here next year for Mechacon 2015 in July!! ^_^
