Dragoncon costumes

[crackhead09]

To those going to DragonCon which armor perm are you wearing? which days are you wearing it? and are you wearing different perms each day?

I myself am trying to figure out which perm i should wear and i also ask this question because i think a variety in armor perms would look awesome.

Since there's going to be a table there, it might also be cool to leave some extra perm parts/guns/ other armor parts ON the table as part of a display. Of course the schedule for ensuring the table is manned at all times hasn't been solidified yet, but it will be.

There's always a small theft concern, so nothing too small, but security is pretty good at the Con in terms of someone trying to snatch and grab a helmet or something. I suggest we take pictures of the gear on the table to establish they were there though,... that's just a, perhaps, overly paranoid thought though.

An additional option might be to get a few pieces of covered plywood with armor attached to it, behind the table itself, and/or mannequins.

Anyways, no point in leaving the table bare if we have cool stuff that can go on it.. even (or maybe especially) Works in Progress, to draw attention to the club.

maybe we can show a helmet in portions like 1/8 of the helmet is paper 1/8 fiberglass 1/8 bondo... for a wip piece but what i mean is htose of us wondering around the con and the parade as well. as for theft i'll be happy to build plexiglass cases for the perms, armor, and helmets to prevent theft

That is a very interesting concept. One very much worth pursuing. It would make a great display piece to show what exactly goes into this hobby.

Does that mean I need to demo how to fiberglass while everyone sleeps, or do I need to demo the me being half asleep for the rest of the day? LOL j/k I think this is a great idea. I will be leaving some of my parts and projects if wanted at the table in good faith.

 

[Sean Bradley]

Yep, I was intending to bring several variants and weapons with me so that I could change out from time to time.

Only 104 armor making days left til Dragon*Con by the way.

You could have a laptop on the table playing a few of Adams creation videos, or any other videos related to the 405th.

I was already thinking of doing that for my armor (I'm entering it in 4H) to show the process.

Off topic, but I had to say something .

 

[Roodkill]

Now Dragon* I wont be able to go to, but has there been any
discussion about making a table at Comic Con in San Diego?
There's tons of plublicity here: News coverage, internet,
G4, gametrailers, Hollywood, talent scouts, ect. . .

I'll be going in a group as marines.

[leegrisham]

You should build some nice looking turrets to go each side of the table.
