London MCM Expo October 2011

:bulletred:Friday

I actually arrived on the thursday for once as ~NavigatorxNami done goofed and got the event mixed up with normal cons
but it was rather relaxing - there was no one around so we just rested after the train journey and had an awesome dinner <3

Image Description

Love Ward Day!
ohmygod ;A;
This could only be done in a group - a group of amazingggly beautiful ladies.
ifeltsooutofplaceseriously XD



Dresses -- are not my strong point - heels - I never wear them - thosethingswerehuge
I remade that dress three times before it was even remotely right oTL

Regardless I enjoyed the group and the shoots we had :']

Image Description

winter sun is THE worst - it's so blinding
Especially when combined with a reflector
I'm derp squinting in almost every photo

Image Description

Rin | Miku | Luka

Image Description

Erin is such a happy person
I want to take her home every time I see her

Image Description

Return of conveniently placed Mr Fabulous

Image Description

That night I headed into London with a large bunch of people hosted by Ben and Lettie for a chinese and Pk
I had originally intended to change - the idea of travelling through London in that outfit still is ... insane XD;
But I was talked into it on the account of awesome PK photos so I donned a jacket and braved the underground
The reaction was actually ok - we got a few expected responses - but some people actually started conversations
with us about the event and sewing etc =]

Image Description

Image Description

These machines were like a more extreme example of my journal posts...

:bulletred: Saturday




Image Description

Started the day off shooting ~PlummerC1 and ~MikeJenks in their Resident Evil cosplays

Image Description

Image Description

Image Description

Cameron doubled as a random zombie for us

Image Description

he really got into the role...

Image Description

I then moved outside to shoot ~CharlieDoryRose, ~Nightrain82 and ~Kerhys



Image Description

Dat leaf tossing

Image Description

Image Description

She made me promise not to show anyone
I have shown nothing

..right?
:iconimhappyplz:

Sheisgoingtokillme

Image Description

I then wandered back to the other side of the event and found ~ToobaGravy
who offered to take some photos of my highly failable Lag



Image Description

I fully intend to remake that jacket - it was the biggest rush job in my life
so many inaccuracies
pleasedon'tjudgeme
;_;

Image Description

LIEK A BAUS




I then shot *WelcomeToMyWorldVXI's Legend of Zelda group
They all behaved wonderfully so I actually have no derps
..derp =[

Image Description

That evening was ~kagen-no-tsuki's birthday meal

Image Description

Image Description

much fun was had comparing Hester's gifts with Ben's ... face

Image Description

The people were amazing and we enjoyed ourselves
The service - wasn't so great =/ I expected it to be better considering the prices and fancy layout
They messed up my order completely - then argued with me when I told them I hadn't ordered it :l
They forgot Hester's meal entirely - we were kept waiting for about an hour
One of the pasta dishes was so small it was like a child's portion and they undercooked Charlie's chicken

Naturally we complained - they sent out a cheese cake to Hester as an apology
Hester can't eat cheesecake - Wahey XD;

Image Description

Image Description

On the plus side
we had moustaches and monocles

Image Description

Image Description

Spent the night in the PTI playing a dare game of some sort
I barely even remember XD;

:bulletred: Sunday




Image Description

I then finally managed to do a shoot with ~felixize in her Vriska outfit with *WelcomeToMyWorldVXI

Image Description

Image Description

Found =Blasteh and Chi - we wandered to the other end again





Image Description

Ciaran's man purse complemented his french.

Image Description

Image Description

Image Description

Image Description

Then returned inside, wandered and shopped - just as the event was finishing up I did a quick shoot for Aaron

Image Description

Photos that I STILL need to get round to editing oTL

We vanished to pizza hut for the evening meal then returned to the PTI for last night fun tiems

Image Description

Image Description

Image Description

I tried to get a group shot of all the boys using Matts zoom lens - I had to back up all the way into the lift itself
to actually fit everyone in. Just as the camera finally had focused the lift doors shut on me and I ended up on the
6th floor XD;

Image Description

Thus concludes London MCM Expo - I am now finally UP TO DATE with my journals
:'D

Until Midlands!
