We're back! And under a foot of snow! And snow means.... Photoshoots! Hopefully the cold weather will hold on for a tiny bit longer for us to get organised for a few different picture splashes.
Auchinawa was last weekend, and though it wasn't the most eventful convention, it was the traditional laid back laugh we always sign up for. Cosplay was pretty sparse; I think out of the 500-something attendees there couldn't have been more than 50 on any given day!
It was nice to see some old faces, though, and wear costumes without any particular agenda! And weirdly, I don't think we've come away from a Con before with such enthusiasm to work on our costumes for the next one! It's like the opposite of PCD, I think we could do with this more often!!
Next up con-wise is KitaCon! The alcohol-fuelled, party cosplay extravaganza con. Or something. We have one HELL of a lot of work to do, though. About 6 costumes each it's totalling up to be. Scythes, swords, cannons, knives, staffs, lances, guns and leeks! Travelling will certainly be... Interesting.
In other news, our next kiriban is 10,000! Seems like we've come a long way in two years... Here's hoping the next 10,000 views can be as fun and enjoyable as the last! Thank you's will come in the next entry once we've had time to gather our thoughts and such XD

For the first feature on this account, I'm not sure I could have chosen anyone else but
yuka-rin!
A treasure in the UK Cosplay scene, Yuka is a complete all-star in more or less every aspect of the hobby she touches. I can say she's personally shaped the direction I've taken as a cosplayer, introduced me to cosplay photography and continues to be a morale boosting inspiration even when she'd rather boot me across the face d:
I wish we could do more groups together lately, though ]:
