I'm not gonna be able to afford Glaceon T_T

Maybe next years.

I'll have Shy Girl instead.

So my lovely little Pokemons. It looks like Saturday has a 60% chance of rain. Knowing Portland, we're probably going to get it. I'm a little worried about where our gathering is taking place now. Waterfront Park doesn't have a ton of trees or anything and the walk there will be longer. I don't want anyone to get soaking wet, so what do you guys say about moving to one of the park blocks? They have a bit more coverage and its not as far.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #852 on:** September 02, 2009, 08:24:29 am »

I'm down with that. The park blocks are pretty cool.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #853 on:** September 02, 2009, 09:05:15 am »

Oh no, I don't want it to rain! D: It's been getting colder each day, too >:

a park block sounds like a good alternative if it rains.

What you have to paint ren???

It is an accessory for another cosplay I am bringing to Kumoricon (hopefully). Fabric paint - the stuff is fun in concept but is sooo weird (and doesn't cover up pen marks apparently *grumble*). Like, for some reason it is kinda... glittery?? I mean, I expected it from the gold but from the brown/tans?? Weeeeird. Maybe the paint having shimmer-powers helps it adhere to the fabric? Haha!

Oh ya that is cool... but you will be shiny think of it that way lol

I saw this today and thought of Lady Shinsei, looking for a fish pokeman. It's at Fred Meyer~

Mei Long · « **Reply #856 on:** September 02, 2009, 10:02:21 pm »

Park blocks sound good to me. Whatever park blocks are, haha!!! And yeah, I don't think Kryolan is waterproof enough to stand up to rain... Darnit, we're supposed to be CLOUDYcon, not RAINYcon. XP

Kawaii - Aaah Fred Meyer, the store of my childhood where my sister and I would run to the toy aisle only to come back with 5 more little Tony Pokemon figures to beg for... y'know, those small plastic figures that were uber detailed and kickass? I will forever adore my Mew figurine because it shows Mew's ORIGINAL color design - white with pink tips and green/blue eyes. Dudes, those things sell for like, 6 bucks each now, it's crazy! XD

.... I'm so tempted to go to Fred Meyer and look at the pokemon stuff... doesn't help we actually grocery shop there 75% of the time. >>;

YOU BEAT ME!!!!

I saw the same thing at the store and couldn't help but laugh at how perfect it was!!! XD

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #858 on:** September 02, 2009, 10:08:54 pm »

@Ren Remember at the early con when we went to the park by the church? o3o Those are the park blocks. =^.^=

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #859 on:** September 03, 2009, 12:03:05 am »

FINISHED MY SISTERS MEW COSTUME!!!!!!!!!!!! its soo cute on her cant wait till kcon. me and her are gonna be mew and wooper together hand in hand yay!

Mei Long · « **Reply #860 on:** September 03, 2009, 12:55:15 am »

Demon - Ooooh, I get it - their blocks of park! ... They were really weird! I've never scene anything like 'em before. XD;;; That's what I get being from Salem, I suppose.

Though... they don't really have cover, do they? Oh well, ya'll know Portland better than me, I put my trust in your capable poke-paws!

Doofer - Awwww, I look forward to seeing your guy's cosplays! ^^

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #861 on:** September 03, 2009, 10:04:19 am »

WOOT!!! The con is almost here!!!
Is everyone done with there cosplays???

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #862 on:** September 03, 2009, 10:24:50 am »

It's not a lot of coverage, but it's better then Waterfront. Shorter walking distance as well. We'll see what the weather brings us though. I'll do a "F'off rain" dance for all of us.

And I'm almost done with all the Pokemon costumes I'm making. Sandshrew still needs the ears on his hoodie, and I need to cut some felt for Oaks eyebrows.
Then it's up to other people for the rest of the work. Sandshrew needs to paint lines on the hood part after the ears are attached, Togekiss needs to style his wig today when it comes in and tip it with blue and red, Pidgey needs to make it so her wings attach to her back, and Oak needs to buy a lab coat.
Victreebel is all fixed though. All that I really need to do pertaining to her is to get some different face makeup and buy some fake eyelashes.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #863 on:** September 03, 2009, 10:34:18 am »

The park blocks are probably just as nice as the waterfront, scenery wise, I mean having the fountain would be awesome for water pokemon but the park blocks are still pretty cool. There's also a church there that yer not really supposed to loiter at (but nobody cared when we were all there. ^.^; ) that has a cover over the entrance.

Lady Shinsei · « **Reply #864 on:** September 03, 2009, 03:34:20 pm »

Pity the stupid Fred Meyer near me barely ever has any interesting Pokemon toys. They suck. T_T

(for whatever reason, they're obsessed with having toys of Bakugan more than anything else)

But man oh man, I sure wish I could have that Feebas & the fishing ball...

Cosplay Decision Question: Usually whenever I've cosplayed as a female fisherman, I've always worn my Snorlax hat (kind of looks like Ash's league hat, but with a Snorlax and its name adorning it). It's been a joke between me and my family that it's a gift from the 'Snorlax Brand Pokemon Bait' company...LOL. Anyhoo, I'm in a bit of a dilemma because I know that the fishermen wear orange hats, and I happen to have one - so, should I wear it instead of my red & white Snorlax hat, and thus be more authentic?

Chaotic.Fox · « **Reply #865 on:** September 03, 2009, 03:39:18 pm »

I know its really late but what pokemon could I pull with what i am wearing, I am willing to get minor thing like ears done in time *hopes*

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #866 on:** September 03, 2009, 03:56:21 pm »

You might be able to try Psyduck or something, he's yellow.

Chaotic.Fox · « **Reply #867 on:** September 03, 2009, 03:57:16 pm »

*nods* I'm still working on others, sadly one costume failed and so I'm attempting to find a backup

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #868 on:** September 03, 2009, 04:21:21 pm »

Here's the gijinka stuff where some of us got ideas, see if one sparks an idea?

Dubaby · « **Reply #869 on:** September 03, 2009, 04:38:24 pm »

Just one ear left.... and then I can pack all of my things and call it a day.

**is currently sitting on the computer wearing a headband with ONE ear attached looking like a loser**

Kawaii Punkd · « **Reply #870 on:** September 03, 2009, 04:48:09 pm »

WAIT, Azumeril Has the same dress as Kumori-chan!

I CAN participate!

SageBell · « **Reply #871 on:** September 03, 2009, 04:49:02 pm »

soooo omany tails how do i attach them all >_<

Mei Long · « **Reply #872 on:** September 03, 2009, 05:34:06 pm »

Sagebell - According to the plushie my sister has and images I've found: Six. Um, as far as attaching? I know Boogie attached her "ass leaves" with like, huge snaps of doom. Or you might wanna try sewing with a curved needle to whatever your outfit is... I know with tails some people use fishing wire to hold them up but for Vulpix you don't neccessarily need to do that, creative interpretation is up for grabs, I think.

Meanwhile: I STEALZ YA'LL HP!!! MY ARMY OF LEECH SEED!!!!!!! (Not all pictured in webcamz piccu)

And the wig I just cut/layered, I was too lazy to take it off. (The back is all short and I layered the front tails slightly, note: wig is not for pokemanz)

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #873 on:** September 03, 2009, 05:55:07 pm »

Looks awesome, Ren! I can't wait to see your modifications and props and attacks and all that good stuff.

SageBell · « **Reply #874 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:09:44 pm »

i have pipe cleaners in the tails to keep them perky.. but i'm just pretending i know what i'm doing by attaching interfacing

tofutakeout · « **Reply #875 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:12:10 pm »

Of course you know what your doing. -cough- >3> I'm kidding, I love ya. <3

The tails is the only thing right? well at least most of its done.

Quinci's letting me borrow a scarf! X3

SageBell · « **Reply #876 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:24:56 pm »

I have to finish sewing 2. and attach them all...

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #877 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:46:38 pm »

I will most likely not be able to come as Teddiursa because unless I get my costume in the mail today then...I won't be able to. Lol.

Sorry.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #878 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:48:29 pm »

D: I is lonely Teddiursa.

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #879 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:49:20 pm »

I'm sorry Demony. ;o; I'm sad too, especially since it'll probably arrive WHILE I'm at the con...

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #880 on:** September 03, 2009, 06:51:45 pm »

Well when are you gonig tomorrow? Could the mail come and get it to you before you go? O:

Nightmare-Chan22 · « **Reply #881 on:** September 03, 2009, 07:15:14 pm »

Hey everyone, I read somewhere back about a trasnfer from the Waterfront to Park Blocks? I'm not exactly sure what Park Blocks is, so I was just wondering if we were still meeting in the lobby and then transfering as a group. Sorry, I'm so terribly shy and nervous. I've only been in a group photoshoot once... D8

SageBell · « **Reply #882 on:** September 03, 2009, 07:21:58 pm »

I would assume we would meet in the same place and decide from there where we run too.

Dubaby · « **Reply #883 on:** September 03, 2009, 07:29:38 pm »

I AM FINALLY DONE!!!!!

I never thought this day would come *tear*

Kagome219 · « **Reply #884 on:** September 03, 2009, 07:51:12 pm »

YAY! : D Congrats, Dubaby~ x3

Andandand, Espeon is complete! >:3

devyrae · « **Reply #886 on:** September 04, 2009, 12:55:53 am »

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #890 on:** September 07, 2009, 05:32:17 pm »

Thanks Griff! I hope everyone had a great time! Sorry if I got a little rude with the shouting, but with all the Pokemon and trainers that we had, I was quiet sure what else to do. Great costumes though people and thank you guys for helping make this gathering a success.

Nightmare-Chan22 · « **Reply #891 on:** September 07, 2009, 05:48:02 pm »

I just wanted to say thanks everyone for making me-Lugia in bloomers- and my friends - Mew, Jirachi, and Manaphy- feel comfortable in the shoot. We haven't been in a photoshootin so long, and we're all really shy. But we had such a fun time, and you all were awesome and thanks for making my con worth it! 8D

Lady Shinsei · « **Reply #892 on:** September 07, 2009, 06:08:33 pm »

Though I sadly missed out on the photoshoot (was still on my way to the con at that time), I was greatly impressed over the weekend by all the costumes that I came accross... You all ROCK! <3

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #893 on:** September 07, 2009, 06:20:03 pm »

Epic pokemon parade through Portland = awesome.
I'm glad I got to play Pokemon music as we walked, that added to the effect XD I want to do this again next year!

The_Geek · « **Reply #894 on:** September 07, 2009, 07:45:17 pm »

I definitely liked the SIDEWALK of people going to the photoshoot. Much epicness occurred.

PrinceZacky · « **Reply #895 on:** September 07, 2009, 07:53:14 pm »

It was awesome seeing all the Pokemon there, everyone looked great! I wish I could've brought Arbok with me~ >__<

Frozen Light · « **Reply #896 on:** September 08, 2009, 12:11:07 am »
