ECLIPSE.

a lot of very good artistic choices that give the feel of the manga but bring something new to the table. it's also not trying to speedrun the plot, which I *really* appreciate

my expectations were very very high for the anime because of my love of the manga. it does not disappoint

happy Witch Hat Atelier day

yesterday's Hualian cosplays were also very popular. so many lovely people <3

very popular coords today as well though. really fun to do hime and guro styles

feet are, as ever, a mistake

today's coords were VERY popular at con

I had to draw this cause it makes me very weepy 💖

ARTEMIS FROM SAILOR MOON WAS AT THE ARTEMIS 2 LAUNCH AND IM VERY EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT

bottom hems stitched and pressed. the robe is in a wearable state! it looks so crisp and nice, ufufufufu

Sakuracon badges acquired. the line when we went was about an hour, which isn't bad, though I'll be curious to hear what it's like tomorrow and Saturday

no worries if not 💖

oh my god are you serious, that would be such a lifesaver. what color is it, by chance?

I should have looked among the renfaire folks' booths at eccc in case someone had a leather parasol holster, damn

perhaps I can jury-rig a way to carry the parasol hands-free rather than making something new, hmm

thread loops to anchor the necklace stitched in. Bottom hems trimmed, pressed, and pinned for stitching. Inner collar fabric selected.

damn, my Solution Nine playlist slaps. great for getting hype to drag myself through more con crunch

made a fancy little tassel to replace the yarn on the handle of the parasol

buttons at the collar are stitched down. tested the robe with the belt, necklace, and one of the vambraces - the necklace slides around a little more than I'd like, so I think it needs an anchor point at the back.

back of the collar is fully stitched down, selected some cording for button loops

Thus far I haven't seen anyone post any specific XIII things, though I did see a FE3H stamp rally going on. I'll keep an eye out.

I admit it's a fair amount of work, but it saves me stress at the event when I can go directly for things that I for sure want. What specifically are you looking for, if I may ask?

Here's an example of the kinds of catalogues I see people make. I think these are fantastic!

and hunt for individual artists. Folks usually list their table numbers (and sometimes maps!), which I write down in a notebook that I take with me and reference at the convention.

When I'm looking for more than just the artists I'm already following that I know are vending, I start with searching "sakuracon" and "sakura con" (since people write it differently and don't always use actual tags, though I do check the tags themselves as well) on social media sites -

I really love that it has become popular in recent years for artists who are going to vend at a given event to put up catalogues online beforehand. It makes it way easier to find folks amidst the overwhelming chaos of artist alley floors
