• 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

  ^At our boothThere 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.
