LOL
I feel ya. I couldn't go last year & drew this vent piece that took millions of dollars to make.

W...was it awesome when you finally went, though?

Yesssss!
I went in 2011 to AC accidentally because I have family in Pittsburgh & I just so happened to be in town that weekend. We only went for an hour but it was still fun. That gave me the bug to go back the following year.
2012 was fun but overwhelming. Soooo much going on & I didn't know as many people in the fandom as I do now.
2013 I had to go to wedding the weekend of AC.
This year I went and it was amazingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg because I knew people & was able to catch up with people as well as do awesome events.

I spent my time playing with expanding foam. I'm glad you had a good weekend as well!

Ooh, you mean the canned stuff, or the 2-part flexible stuff?

the 2 part flexible stuff :) I remember you were talking about wanting to cast heads that were hollow in the middle still? Was that you who was wondering that?

it was me! I ended up jerryrigging a plug with a smooth-on box and some tin foil. I frustrated myself trying to figure out how to make a moving jaw with the stuff (how does Phazon Alloy do it??) so I cast a resin one instead... Did you have success?

I did. I put a release agent on my head form and smushed it in the hole

Ha! Genius!

I'm actually trying some other methods too but it works!

I went one year. It was not as exciting as FC since most of the furs were east coast furs so we knew less folks. We knew the couple we traveled with and a few Bay furs, but that was about it. The hubby keeps wanting to go back but I keep say meh pitstberg is far, and far....plus also it is Pittsberg. Do not feel to bad about missing it. I think FC is way better.

Heh, I think I just want to go to a con again. FC is comin' up fast! I've resolved to go to BLFC next year as well.

Me to I have not done BLFC but I hear its great. Since we are moving back to NORCAL it will be a more doable con too . I also am looking forward to FC though I do not know if I will have time to make any suits by then since I am starting a new job. Sure am gonna try though! Love what you have done with your kitty suit and those kickass moving dragon tails btw!
