Of course, you can see the rest in my Flickr set.
It was cool to see my friend Tony Fowler (from Backyard Legends) and the prototypes of their upcoming Prince of Crystal release (I already have their Emerald Dragonrider figure, seen on the right, and still love it dearly). You can see the majority of my pics (unfortunately, I didn't get as many as I would have liked) in an ECCC 2012 Flickr set that I made. The few hours that I did spend the3re did have some bright moments, and I did manage to meet some cool people, score a few treasures and get some cool pics. If you were fortunate enough to fight your way to a booth to look at some wares, good luck squeezing into the booth to get close enough to buy something. The aisles were transformed into a slowly shuffling sardine-packed mass of people. I can't stress enough how unbelievable it was. I had never seen so many people at this convention, and although this was indicative of the rising popularity of geek culture, it just made for a claustrophobic maelstrom of sweating, grouchy humanity and where I usually stayed until the end of day at 7:00, I was jumping ship by 3:00. This year I tackled two days of the con (usually just going on Saturday in the past), and boy am I glad I did, because Saturday at the con was so unbelievably packed with attendees, that after battling the crowded aisle after just a few short hours, I had to admit defeat and just leave. I was really looking forward to this convention because this is my go-to con that I have attended every year for the past 6 years, and always delivers when it comes to good old fashioned comic convention fun rooting through comic boxes, hunting for classic toys and taking pics of tons of costumed attendees.
This con cosplay gets 4.1 out of 5 thumbs up for engaged cosplayers, amazing photographers and costuming that engages all the senses.Just two weeks after my trip to Wondercon in Anaheim, I found myself gearing up for our local annual comic convention, the Emerald City Comic Con, right here is scenic Seattle WA. All photographs in the two WSCC cosplay galleries are courtesy of David Ngo’s talent and generosity. Talented photographer David Ngo ( was hot last weekend, killing it with choreographed snaps placed perfectly amidst fellow con-goers, con floor spots and intense foliage and fauna found around WSCC. Seattle is the perfect setting for cosplay and comic con fun! Green, lush and perfect weather (even tho it can get a little wet) are great partners to have when shooting gorgeous pics, especially around the convention center. This beautiful venue held a 4 day convention managed by Reed Pop, the company that brings you New York Comic Con, C2E2 and so many other fantastic comic and cosplay events across the world, check out their planned cons! Emerald City Comic Con was held in t he Washington State Convention Center (WSCC) 7-10 April 2016.
