AFest Cosplay Photos

You'll probably want to comment over here, since I catch these comments more than I do the Flickr ones.

The final two pictures in the set are two commissions that I did at the con.

Nice pics! Everybody looked like they were having a good time (except Aerith). That smoking angel is from Haibane Renmei. It was cute (but not sickly like Sugar Fairy or Digicharat) and full of atmosphere, but I couldn't get into it for some reason.

BTW, in your cosplayers on phones, the person behind the one cosplaying Lloyd Irving is cosplaying Yuan from Tales of Symphonia. Just thought I'd mention that since you have a commission involving Yuan :)

Cool picture. I love the Hughes and Gracia with pics :)

Haibane Renmei is slow, thoughtful and atmospheric, and the plot is psychological rather than action-based. I think it's phenomenally good - up there with Utena and FMA, in the category of shows that will Last.

I've often thought it would also make a good introduction to anime, for an intellectual type looking to see what the big deal is or why they should let their kids watch this stuff.

Oh hey, I recognize the blonde and brunette in that one commission! I did a couple of pictures of those two at A-kon.

Looks like Pyramid Head got cleaned up before heading to the con: He cleaned off all the blood! Plus, I think he lost some weight.

Ed needs to get on his knees -- I don't think he should be taller than Lust!

I wonder if Wee!Kakashi has the undermask :)

(Are there new chapters or volumes of Naruto out after the time-skip? Are there, are there, are there?)

I vote that the smoking winged one is Reki from Haibane Renmei, which you desperately must go watch.

That Roy Mustang really looks like Roy! Well, a good enough likeness to a drawn character to not make much difference at least *grin* I also laughed once I realised what that doll was the three Advent Children guys had, though I didn't understand until the on the sword picture. :)

Hahaha! Cosplayers entertain me to no end. Cool picts.
