^Sister trying to take me down!
^Holy fingerknives, Batman!

Long Beach Comic Con Days 1 and 2
So Long Beach Comic Con has past. It was the first Long Beach Comic Convention, so it was pretty small. Also it was during the weekend of the Adult Con which was bad planning in my opinion. Porn and comics go hand in hand. It's all fantasy, right?
Anyways, I have to say I'm pretty glad it wasn't big and crazy like SDCC because I was hobbling around with my cast and cane. It was a real pain. I was doped up on Vicodin because honestly, I was being a real dumbass when I convinced the dr to give me a cane instead of crutches. Oh man. I think things would have been much easier with crutches, but I was being vain at the hospital, and I sure paid the price.
We didn't sell much. There really weren't many people to sell stuff too, but we did get to network and meet some cool and interesting vendors and artists. We were able to speak more with individual fans, which is nearly impossible to do at the crazy packed San Diego Comic Con.
Well, here are some photos of days 1 and 2.Day 1
^Posing With my cane. Tried my best to cover the ugly ass aircast. I wonder why they don't make them in black?
^Vest- Lip Service. Leggings-LVLX. Silver top-LVLX. Gloves- Busy B Hollywood. Cool stash Boot-From Amsterdam
I always get that clump of strands that just wants to fall out of place. Sorta like Elvis. For makeup I used some of the items that will be given away for my contest. The contest items are unopened. I ordered stuff for myself when I ordered contest items. =P
Eyes:Mac Grease Paint stick- Black, Mac Pigment- sweet sienna, Mac Eyeshadow-black tied, Urban Decay eyeshadow-Vapor
Lips:Mac Mattene Lipstick, OCC lip tar-Feathered, Mac Glimmerglass-Bling Black
^At our booth
There wasn't much cosplay, but there was live wrestling!
Day 2I was Mario!
^Clean look for Mario. Just more shimmer to give me that cartoon like glow and thicker, higher arched brows.
Didn't forget the 'stache. just decided to add it later in the day.Costume- I got the Mario hat and mustache from Hot Topic. I made the skimpy overalls from a pair of cheap stretchy skinny jeans. The upper half of one leg was for the front panel, lower half for the back panel. The other leg was used for the straps. Pretty much hand sewed everything again since I haven't got around to buying a new sewing machine. Btw, I sprained my ankle while shopping for the stupid buttons for the overalls. The top was actually two old tops that I put together one from papaya and the other from some other cheap clothing shop. White Gloves from Busy B, Hollywood.
^The beautiful Mika, Ms. March the Night Elf Came down to sign with me. =) Isn't she adorable. I fuckin love her new hairstyle. She looks like a pretty pixie.
^The guy on the right- if Tom Cruise made it with Ben Stiller. haha
^Cam whoring. Yeah this pose hurt, but it was worth it. haha.
^haha. I look like such a pervert with the mustache.
^Pshoo pshoo errbody's go'n die. -Kevin Hart
^haha. I had my leg up higher but I guess the camera was too slow.
^That's how I roll, Mario.=) I'll post day 3 when I feel like going all the way down stairs to find my camera.

Sprained ankle contest prize update
So I was shopping for a few buttons to add to one of my costumes for the Long Beach Comic Con, which is tomorrow-sunday. I step out of the fucking fabric store, didn't realize there was a step and I totally stumbled and crashed down on my ankle all weird. I took 3 mores steps and realized that the pain was so bad I was beginning to feel nauseous.Great, I was already behind on making one of my costumes, now I have to go to the fucking hospital to get this shit checked out.
You know your fucked when all the workers in the ER take one glance at your shit, wince, shake their heads and say ouch. Thank God there were no fractures, but I sprained it pretty bad. I was so pissed. It just had to be the worst timing ever. So now, my Friday costume is out of the question. ( can't rock super tall heels) I'm glad that this con, my other costumes can be worn with flats. I had to talk my Dr into giving me a cane instead of crutches. I told her I was going to be working the comic con and crutches are just a bit much. She was actually cool and told me she was a big fan of comic book guy from the Simpson's, and when I told her what I was going to be dressed as on Saturday she did a funny sound effect that the character makes... awesome female geek dr. =)
^Notice the swelling on the right ankle. So fucked!Anyways, so I have this cane, and I'm not sure if I'm just gonna take off the air cast for the con or rock it all gangsta like. All I know is that right now I'm fuckin pissed. They gave me 2 vicodins in the ER so I'm feeling loopy, but I still have to finish sewing one of my costumes. Gah! Too bad I didn't plan on being a pimp. Then I could've just bedazzled my cane and just planned the outfits around the cane. =P Actually walking around with the cane isn't as cool as I thought it'd be. My arm gets all wobbly. I look and feel like an old lady, seriously- not hot.
^The therapist comes out with this shoe, and I start laughing hysterically. I was just thinking of my friday costume as the sleek and sexy Sage...He probably thought I was crazy. I just kept laughing and telling him that I was in a living nightmare. He just smiled uneasily and strapped me in. I asked if the shoe was on the wrong foot, cuz it looks weird. He said, "they're universal." I replied, "Universally ugly," and I actually got a bit choked up. I mean the shoe combined with my jacked up nails( I was so about to get a pedicure) the site was so ugly I seriously almost cried. haha.
On top of all that, I had to cancel a shoot I had for today, and I have a shoot on monday with 2 other models. I'm not sure if I'll be well enough by then, but we'll see. This really blows. Sigh...It's strange, I was doing so much lately that I was thinking something was going to have force me to slow down. Gah.
On the brighter side of things...my contest. I know you folks still have lots of time, but I just wanted to add that anyone can dress up as more than one character if they'd like. Each costume will count as an individual entry. Any one person can get 2 prizes. Hey, if someone wants to put in that much more effort, then they should go for it. You don't gain extra points for having more than one entry. Like I said, each character will be judged individually. You can enter the look your wore for halloween or looks that you've done for tutorials, as long as the looks were done AFTER the contest started.I just got some of the prizes that I ordered in the mail. So far I have- OCC Lip Tars- Tarred, Feathered, Hush, Antique, and NSFW.
- OCC Nail Laquers-Tarred, Hush, Spanglemaker.
- MAC Style Black Mattene Lipstick- Midnight Media
- MAC Style Black Glimmerglass-BlackFire, Blackware
- MAC Style Black Nail Laquer-Baby Goth Girl
- MAC Style Black Grease Paintstick- Black
- MAC Style Black Lipstick- Black Knight
- Bloody Mary Eyeshadow- Red ( I love this and use it all the time)
- FanVixens Calendars for all winners (duh)

CONTEST! Put on your thinking caps, folks!
To celebrate the release of my FanVixens calendar, I'm going to have my very first blogger contest. The calendar is themed with a variety of characters. So, I want you to dress up as ANY EXISTING CHARACTER that you like. I mean ANY CHARACTER. As long as the character existed at some point in books, tv, movies, video games, etc. it's acceptable. I want to see makeup, costumes, and a bit of a back story...
How to Enter
To enter the contest you must....- Dress up as a character. This can be based on ANY comic book, sci-fi, cartoon, video game, horror, fairy tale, sitcom character that ALREADY exists. Don't be afraid to go obscure. What characters did you grow up loving? If yo need ideas don't be afraid to ask! You can look at some of my comic con images for some inspiration. Google your favorite characters. Go through your closet and see what you have to work with. You can even use your Halloween costume as an entry. You have till freakin' NOVEMBER 6TH 2009 to figure it out!!!
- Post your entry on your own blog.
- Post 3-5 images of your entry. Try to pose like your character. Full body, and head shots. Also if possible, a picture of the original character that you are emulating.
- Comment me via this entry so I can know that you're a contestant.
- Don't forget to give me the name of your character.
- Be a follower of my blogspot profile (choke-a-bitch.blogspot.com) Actually this step is not a necessity, but it will help.
- Extra points. A short story of you as your character. I'm very into photo stories. So a simple 1-3 sentences/lines for each image you send will work. You can be poetic, artistic, or straight forward. It's up to you. Anything goes. I'm just looking for effort. You can describe each photo with 1-2 words if that works for you. Just follow your whims and may the best gal/guy win!
Now for the meat and potatoes...PRIZES!
Over $500 in prizes will be given away for this contest! I will have 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place entries.
These prizes will include:- a secret grand prize that anyone can enjoy! When I say anyone, I mean ANYONE. Think BIG people. This is my first contest and I like to be flamboyant when it comes to gifting.
- a variety of OCC lip tars-some items from the Mac style black collection for fall 2009
- some of my favorite Arcona skin care products
- cute accessories
- other items that I haven't thought of yet!!!
The list of prizes will grow if I have enough contestants, hell maybe I'll even have 4th or 5th place prizes.
Judging...
In order to keep the ruling as unbiased and sincere as possible I will have 5 different judges of different character, sex, ethnicity, and lifestyle. Each judge will rate you on a scale from 0-20. Each individual score will be anonymous. Your rank will be a score of 0-100.
Judge 1- ME. I'm an artist/photographer. I have a sick sense of humor and I love irony. I'm particularly going to pay attention to your makeup, how much effort you put into your entry, and please be aware that I'm not a fan of bad photoshop jobs, so if you're thinking of using some cheesy filters on your work...I'm not going to like it. If it's tasteful and makes sense then go for it. Let your artistic juices flow, but don't blur your images beyond recognition. Also, I'm looking for fun characters. You don't have to be an exact image of a character. I want to see you as the character.
Judge 2- My older sister. I would describe her as a more goth, dramatic version of myself. She loves all things unusual and dark. She's also a UCLA English major with an emphasis on creative writing, so story will be important to her.
Judge 3- The gay male. He'll probably be the most critical. When it comes to him, you best bring it. He's looking for makeup skill, costume, ferocity, and breaking barriers. He's into theatrics and fashion.
Judge 4- The straight, refined business man. He's a suave, intelligent, and pays a lot of attention to detail. Skin might sway him a bit, but he's an intelligent guy. He knows good work when he sees it. He's no makeup guru and he may not be familiar with many characters, so he'll probably pay more attention to the whole picture/story that you put together.
Judge 5- The fanboy. He's into comic books, video games, hot chicks, and pizza. He'll pay more attention to how true you are to a character and he'll focus on creativity and the obscurity of a character. He may also be swayed by skin, but he'll be more impressed by a great costume and attention to detail.
Remember contest ends November 6, 2009. That's over a month from now, so there will be no excuse for late entries.
Woo, this is so exciting! Now don't be scurred people. I want you to have fun with it. xoxo

Long Beach Comic Con 10/2-4/2009
We will be having a booth at the 1st annual LBCC October 2-4. Come check us out. It should be fun. I wonder what I should dress up as? As much as I loved being Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, I just have so many photos in that get-up. I have a few ideas running around in my head, but it's so soon. I wonder if I'll be able to pull some last minute costumes out of my ass like SDCC. =P
So I'll be there with inkpenmutations selling my 2010-2011 FanVixens calendar. I think I'll have a surprise model guest with me. We'll see. =)
Hmm... what else? Oh on Sunday I went to Sushi Roku in Hollywood and I must say it's way better than the one in Santa Monica. I didn't take any photos, but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone wanted to try Sushi Roku out for the first time.
After Sushi Roku I went to my lovely, Vima's loft warming party. She got a cute little spot downtown. The building is over 100 years old and has a nice view. =) It's funny because I was right in her area not too long ago serving jury duty. haha. God jury duty's a fucking nightmare! Glad I didn't have to serve over a day.Well, here's a quick pic I took with Vima before she leaving her party.
^She's miss January kitty in the FanVixens calendar and she was also in my first book. =) Love this sexy lady.Oh and here's something that I found hilarious at petco the other day.
^Haha. It doesn't show too well in the picture but that hamster is all painted up like a some cheap lady of the evening. Lots of rouge and what appears to be false lashes. haha. "Critter operated no horses necessary" haha. Seriously folks, I wanna know how one commissions a photo of a hamster all hooker-ed up like that. Um, could we get a hamster with sexy bedroom eyes, and make sure her cheeks are flushed pink to show that she's in heat. I guess everyone has to start somewhere in the business. That includes people and hamsters alike.=P

Ranila's 25th Bday
So my little sister had her 25th birthday 9-9-09. She had her party at the adorable Leon Lounge in Orange County. Her friend let her rent the place out for the even for free.Here are some photos. (click to enlarge)
^Me with the birthday girl. Yes, she wore a tiara for her bday. I wore a hairpiece made out of genuine baby bald eagles. Now that's baller.
^First shot of the evening.
^Ugh it burns so good once it hits your mouth. haha. Not a big fan of Greygoose shots. I like Belvedere better when it's straight up.
^Big sis arrived a bit later.
^The sisters still bright eyed and sober.
^2nd drink.
^third drink. Aside from shots, I stuck with vodka redbulls I like to mix uppers and downers to give me that weird neutral feeling.
^a bit more tipsy... She had an outfit change. It was funny because I saw the dress hanging in the bathroom and I thought it would've been hilarious to change into it real quick and wear it around the party until she noticed. It seemed funny in my mind, but I knew she probably would've cried or something. 10 years ago would've been another story. That's what big sisters are for right? haha.
4th drink. Dude with the glasses painted on his shirt kept pouring me shots after this. oh man. People like challenging me to drink offs for some reason.
^one of my loves showed up. She was the Nikki Doll from my first book.
^I look evil here. =P
^About to blow out her candles. I think I was too drunk to remember this part.
^A picture of her on the cake. This was from our first photo shoot. I told her she should have asked me to photoshop a tiara on her head for the cake. haha.
^Some drunk dancing.
^Final drink. I took a shot with my sister and lil cousin who I hadn't seen in years. This was like my 8th or 9th drink. I don't quite remember going home, and I felt so shitty the next day. I can't drink like I used to. My tolerance has gone down, since I don't drink as often. Plus, I'm just getting plain old.Guess that's all for now.

NIN Wave Goodbye at the Hollywood Palladium
^Right outside the Palladium with my sister. 
^Already buzzed.
^Conjoined twins. Connected at the hip. haha.
It was a great concert. Very intimate and they played lots of my favorites. I was able to get my sister and I up to the VIP, but it happened so fast I left my camera with Blaine. We met Jared Leto, who I actually didn't recognize. He's a scrawny little fellow. My sister spotted him going to the bathroom. He took a picture of us with his phone, asked me for my number, then sneaked back to his date. Haha. Shady. We didn't meet the band or anything like that. We actually had to leave right away because my sister flew down from Burning Man to go to the concert then had to fly back. That's some hardcore shit. Btw, I'm so going to Burning Man next year. My showed me videos n pics and I was in awe.I uploaded my first videos on youtube. They are just video clips from the concert. I shot everything with my old canon pocket cam, so photo quality isn't great.
^Fuckin love this song.
^Who doesn't love this one?
At the end Gary Numan performed "Cars" with them. How awesome is that? They sounded great live.
This was actually my first real concert. I was so stoked that my sister got the ticket for me. =) Everyone I talked to was saying that this is an awesome venue for a first concert. I believe them. I loved every minute of it. Afterward, we went to thai town where they have lots of good late night Thai restaurants.

sdcc 09 last day
(click photos to enlarge)For the last day of SDCC, I wanted to go for my version of the Japanese Gothic Lolita look. I got to finally rock the awesome Lolita hat that the talented craftswoman Kim Tia sent to me back in April. It totally pulled the look together. Actually the hat is what inspired the look.
^This girl was awesome. She even did the complete dance.
^Sisters
^We chased him down for a photo as they were closing.
^Best friend from Junior High. =)
^Fuckin rocket boy. haha.
^Aww horror booth babes footsies hurt. Seriously after rocking the Dr. Girlfriend boots, my second toe on each foot were numb for well over a month. They are actually just getting back to normal.
^haha. I thought this was funny. I actually haven't seen it because I am a grown ass woman who's too busy to fall in love with a teen vampire story. I can't say I hate it, or that I'm a fan. I'm more of an old school Bram Stoker's Dracula fan. I don't have anything against the whole Twilight phenom. Maybe I'll watch it if it's on HBO and there's nothing else on. Otherwise, I wouldn't go out of my way to really fan it or bash it.
^Hot bloody bitches.
^With my nephew. He's all growed up now.After the Comic Con...So during the con, I was real serious about getting my hustle on. I decided not to party until it was all over. We headed over to Anthony's to start with our oysters shots, which has been an Inkpenmutations tradition since the first con we participated in.
^Thought this was cute...
^Enjoyed this on the way.Blaine and Tuan enjoy it in their own special way...
^To another successful year!
^Went to some random club downtown and ran into our bro.
^Tuan's such a whore.
^Uh the photos they take when you leave them with your camera. haha.Got trashed then left the club and ran across the street to get one more round of tequila shots.
^The gang...
^Happy drunk, tired drunk, angry drunk, sloppy drunk. 
^Pose off...haha.
^Oh yeah, that's hot. haha.
^This is what happens when you try to share a seatbelt with your older sister.
haha.
^Back at the motel for a sexy shoot on a sweet ride.Woohoo! Good times. -
After Comic con day 4 haha
Some of what goes on after hustling our asses off at SDCC.
^The gang. Heading to the trolley. You wouldn't wanna run into us in a dark alley.
^I taught her to pose. My eyes are all red and makeup's all caked and creased, but it's cool cuz I Kick it with Chuck Norris.
^Their name are Blaine and Tuan...Does anyone remember Blayne Edwards and Antoine Merriweather...
Just wanted to point out such a happy coincidence. I'm talking about their names, but I guess there are other subtle similarities. Haha. 2 snaps in a circle.
^Right after he pushed her in a pit of dirt. I'm sorry I couldn't stop laughing my ass off for over half an hour. Her expression+his expression= priceless.
umm...hahaha
Whatever happens in Bankok, stays in Bankok, but we were at a motel in SD, so... Dude this is so wrong. haha. In all honesty, they're only gay for vagina, well the asian not so much.
Waiting for Carne Asada fries at Lolitas. Lolitas is the shit. Didn't take photos of the food. I was too fucking burnt.
