It was a long day filled with amazing cosplayers & costumed folks all enjoying a day with like-minded individuals. This is I believe the 8th year for Edmonton hosting this? We are starting to see some big names such as Stan Lee, Jenna Coleman & others.
So whom did I dress as? Why non-other than Tim the Enchanter.
A lady friend spent the last month working on the outfit from some of the trappings I had already & with her magical craftiness. Of course as mentioned there were some excellent costumes, a few of which I showcase here
Not sure who this lass was, but she certainly got my attention.
Tim seems to have found himself in a Galaxy Far Far Away.
There were quite a few Star Wars themed costumes.
This lovely lady was very excited with seeing Tim. How could I say no?
Quite a trip down Road Warrior Lane
There was also a large number of ladies dressed as Harley Quinn. This one seemed the best as she started an impromptu performance & was having a lot of fun with the it.
This year we took in a couple photo-ops. Jenna Coleman! WOOT! I didn't realize she was so petite. We were in the third batch of attendees & they were really rushing to get everyone through, so we could barely say hi....lesson learned, try to be in the first batch of people going forward.
As well we had a photo with the Cosplay folks. I think Tim found a new Rabbit, YAY Jessica Nigri!
So after the excitement of the expo, I got to open a couple parcels which had arrived. First was a parcel of some mdf kits I had ordered from Blotz.
I am always looking for smaller scatter terrain pieces & these will fit nicely in a couple of era's for gaming. I also had a couple ziplock bags of produce in sacks. I've already tested them on the cart & they fit wonderfully. More photos when they are done.
As well they had some Gypsy Caravan's. YES had to have a couple of those!
The other parcel was from my Darksword Diterlizzi Kickstarter. I got the core set & a couple of the add-ons, but not the whole affair. These will work well with my sudden Frostgrave Craze.
So there is the end of another busy, fun weekend...at this rate I will need a weekend from my weekends. At least we have a couple weeks before Fallcon so I can relax a bit from the rush.
Well that has certainly brightened my morning, thank you Terry!
