I finally did it. I posted all (well, most of anyway...) the pictures from 冬コミ. Probably shouldn't have spent two whole nights on it, but...oh well. I split them up into a few different posts so it would be easier to understand. If you're a Hetalia fan and you're looking for the yaoi photos that ought to be here (thank you!) just ask me and I'll direct you to the appropriate place Otherwise you can browse the following posts:
general Hetalia cosplay
Gakuen Hetalia cosplay
Hetalia England only cosplay
Hetalia England and Japan cosplay
Hetalia England and America cosplay
If you think there's an overbalance of England it's b/c that's who I cosplay...
And speaking of cosplay...it looks like I'll be doing a loooot more of it in the near (and far?) future. And I'm pretty excited. Dressing up is fun after all. Taking pictures is also fun. Becoming characters, acting like someone else, it's amazingly fun. And it just gets funner when there's someone else to do it with. Finally. Doing fun things in excess makes them even more fun. Don't let anyone tell you moderation is important. They've just been deprived of having tons and tons of fun.
Of course, I still have a ton of drawings to do for my kids by graduation in mid-March, but I'm feeling less crazy stress from it (even though there's like, 50 of them left...) b/c I recently found a good way to get a lot done after work on a daily basis so it's getting easier. Still have a ton that I've already drawn & just need to post too so those will keep coming gradually. I can't believe it's already February...the world is still spinning too fast if I think about it, but I don't mind so much anymore. My world went from regluar Neapolitan ice cream to Ben & Jerry's Neapolitan Dynamite in what felt like seconds, but really? Who wants regular, when you can have Dynamite?
Yes, I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can find his way by moonlight, and see the dawn before the rest of the world.
