And?
It's still a stupid policy, and really one of the reasons I didn't go.
We were going to try to make it down this year, but decided that being around for my dad's 70th was a good idea.

Unless you guys can get CHI to budge on policy, we shant be attending.
Colorado Springs was one of my favorite cons I've ever been to.
Perfect size, on Friday we just chatted with the Celebs. The location needed help on Saturday, but I'm a big dude and I was in a Mandalorian Death Watch cosplay and could just walk through the crowd.
Damn.

I can probably have Din up in an afternoon.
We might also be going to the ren faire. Or next weekend.
ALSO
Din is in repair parts, Heather's mando has fallen apart because it was a foam build - but also hers doesn't fit right now because it was a pre-pregnancy build.
So I just saw this, when is this happening?

It'll be fun. I'll be dressed as Doctor Fate!
Elegoo's settings are solid. I haven't had any issues with their presets to do it when I downloaded from their website.

Safety Third!
This was the last piece I needed for my Imperial Guardsman cosplay.
I can't get it on because I'm incapable of dislocating my shoulder. I MIGHT be able to get it to work if I sand some parts down and make the lower section sides thinner.
Or cut them off, sand them, and do strapping instead.
It's one of my dream cosplays.
I have a folder where I'm collecting fabrics, materials, STLs. Etc. Might do a Staff Weapon over next winter for fun.
I'll likely do a Serpent Guard of Apophis because lets be honest, Teal'c and Breytak are the best.
Doctor Fate fabric.
Also, the XTC-3d resin I used on it cured in a cold basement. Texture galore.
I'll have to sand and redo.
I need to pick up a bottle of whiskey to create a coffee absinthe I picked up from Bristol Renaissance Faire.
29.01.2025 14:57 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I usually bring a coffee beer. Can't day drink if you don't start at breakfast.
Or one time I infused a coffee whiskey.
My favorite is still breakfast burritos at the Marriot Starbucks in KC.
Not free. But ohhhhh so satisfying.
The new Elegoo formula is fantastic, I use their ABS-like resin for props and minis. And cheaper than Siraya.

Smoothed out some parts with flexifiller. Will sand that down by hand, then a filler primer and sand again!
I've enjoyed the elegoo from time to time. Currently addicted to their resins.

Dr. Fate for Planet ComicCon in March.
Whole costume will be made by me.
In defense, most of the shit that came out then was cringe and campy.
That's what made it fun.
