I'm back. I've been away for quite a while, due to real life issues. But yeah -- I may not be back full-time, but I'll be around.

Anyway, I'm Mark -- otaku since before I knew the term, been going to cons since '09, staffing my local con since... 2015? 2016? But I had to put that on hold because COVID and the aforementioned real-life issues, but I'll be back this November. My media backlog is currently horrific, as I have blurays I bought two years plus ago and still haven't watched. I play lots of Final Fantasy XIV, and I can't WAIT for Dawntrail. I'm hopelessly addicted to caffeine.

Again, I'll be around. 3nodding


Hi Mark, I'm very happy to see you on the Guild again. Also happy your life has improved. You're welcome to be a Crew Member again. Currently we are starting to work on the sub forums in the guild doing cleanup and improvements. I want to do a contest but I'm kinda stuck on what the theme would be. Feel free to post in an old thread or create new threads. If their is something that you want to work on please let me know and if you have any contest ideas let me know about that as well.

Welcome back,

Totally understand the backlog issue. I still haven't watched certain animes like HunterxHunter (personally think Yu Yu Hakusho is better anyways).

Hi I'm a cosplayer from the Florida space coast. My first con was Megacon 2011, and my first cosplay was Uryuu Ishida from Bleach which I made with whatever I could find that looked like his outfit, blue fabric paint, and a fake bow and aarow from Spirit that was for a Jame's Cameron Avatar costume(I was a kid and didn't really know what I was doing lmao)

My favorite con is either Metrocon or Holmat, and I hope to do a final fantasy cosplay next. I buy way too many keychains and plushies at cons and almost never buy prints or posters cuz I don't really like having too much stuff on my wall. I have a decent amount of figurines but I'm kind of selective on which ones I get

Welcome to the guild.

Please ask me any questions you have about building any costumes. I have a list of FF tutorials that you can use as well.

Here's a link. I'm adding more bit by bit, but will be focusing on general skill building for the next little bit and be slowing down on getting list together.

Some of the tutorials are grouped. Like I don't have a link for Captian America or Hulk, but if you click the link for Marvel Comics, you'll find both of the subjects. The same with Final Fantasy.

Hello there! I'm Iris and I'm a cosplayer from the Midwest. One of my favorite cons is MomoCon. I absolutely love cosplaying as Nero Claudius from Fate. My first ever cosplay was Haruhi Suzumiya.

Thanks for posting!! I've been cosplaying and going to Anime Conventions since 2009. It's a joy running this Guild because I get to meet wonderful people like you!! I happen to live in Michigan and have gone to cons in Michigan including Youmacon. I like Naruto, Boroto, Sailor Moon, Fairy Tail, and so many more Anime shows. I used to Roller Skate when I was younger and loved every minute of it. One of my Loves at cons is the fact that I'm an amateur Cosplay Photographer. There are links in my profile. Welcome to the Guild and if you have any questions feel free to message either myself or our Vice Captain Angelmage99

Hi! I'm Angelmage99,

Angel for short. I also like Orca's. I'm originally from Washington State, they're the state's marine mammel.

As stated I'm the cosplay person. If you need help with anything, ask me. I have a lot of things that I haven't gotten to, so if you don't see it, just ask.

I'm currently working on a Shinobu (Demon Slayer) and my husband and I have a Ms. Joke and Aizawa (MHA!) cosplays.

Hello, everyone 3nodding

I admit I don't really go to cons anymore, but in my teens/20's I used to plan all year for cons & go with a whole group of friends! I'd love to get back into it, even if it means going alone this time around.

My first con was Megacon 2006 in Orlando, FL, I went to Mega I think 2x (not consecutive years tho) and I don't quite remember what year, but Metrocon I went to twice also in Tampa. Locally, I went once to Wasabicon in 2016, but basically all I did was pay to park, get in & walk around for 30 minutes then leave because it turns out my "friends" didn't want to be seen with me because my brother had just had a kid & wanted to come along to get out of the house, and they thought it was lame to be seen with us. Needless to say I'm no longer friends with those posers stressed

I had plans to cosplay for years- Asuka from Evangelion, Riza Hawkeye from FMA, Maximum Ride- but due to costs, housing, and my friend group basically being a bunch of fake a** friends even long before I realized it I never managed to get around to it sad

I know it's never too late & cons are still a thing, so maybe this year or next year I'll be able to start going again & work my way up to making new con friends and eventually finally cosplay, who knows!

(P.S. I used to have an animecons.com account, but the site seems to not recognize my email or login & isn't allowing new users to register gonk )
