Had a wonderful weekend in Anaheim participating in my first ever Blizzcon!

Had the chance to learn about the new systems coming out in @warcraft forever (COMING NOVEMBER 4TH), and all the other exciting projects coming from @blizzard over the next few years, including a new Starcraft video game in 2030.

Had the wonderful opportunity to meet my gaming buddies IRL. @spideywomack @daniellebaloo @braekor and others.

Saw some amazing cosplays by @daniellebaloo @darklady.cosplay @vamplettes @rgbfoxie @rgbwolfie
@stellachuuuuu.

made some new friends with @itsthelichqueen @ashenocturne @rencognito and all my murloc brethren

got great seats to a @le_sserafim concert

and somehow ended up on @kaisastreams livestream 😵‍💫

The lines were abysmal and my feet don’t forgive me, but I’ll gladly try again a little wiser and little more resilient!

Next stop @mtgfestivals Magiccon Atlanta in November!

Until next time Mglrmglmglmgl!

What an amazing @mtgfestivals experience! Hadn’t attending a large magic event since GP Washington DC in the Summer of 2019! Met up with my favorite Judge @lordxanderthecollector , got a chance to meet tons of creators, cosplayers and magic enjoyers. Including UN-enjoyer @p4wpupp3r , professional Gavin Verhey impersonators @gemini.twins.magic and @zbexx . Got the chance to witness an ALPHA pack opening by @benbatemanmtg . Got to meet @handsomejordan’s fellow pokemon @xtina.gg @stellachuuuuu and @senpapi.gabe. Got to play in a pod with @wozzlebugmtg . Met some of the creative brilliant minds behind the game @mtgmaro @gavinverhey and @wotc.matt . Saw my favorite Magic playing couple @lua.stardust and @comedian_mtg . Handed my wow guild mate @mightysox a pack and he opened a Mana Drain!

Just regret not getting more games in.

Time to start planning for Atlanta!

A few photos from over the year. Started off with my grandmothers 88th Birthday and ended with her passing after months of complications due to a mycobacterium in her lungs. Thanks to everyone who reached out. by @mainichi_kaizen

Some of the 100+ cards Greg Hildebrandt made for #mtg over the years. He was also prolific in Marvel trading cards and many other fantasy franchises we know and love. His work and the work of his brother will endure. He passed on October 31st and his brother Tim passed in June of 2006.

Had a great time @nightmareweekendrichmond got to try out a new cosplay with Moon Knight 🌙 but it’s a little snug in too many places 😅. Brought my TVA Engineer as there was no shortage of Variants to classify and assist. Always great to witness @handsomejordan on stage. He had great company with @monolith_costumes, @glitchy_rogue and @grave_craftmakes in judging this years costume contest. Had a chance to meet up with @merkuma, @astravoidcosplay, @cheesecakepanda_cosplay, @lua.stardust, @theashtonblaise , @ashlynnedae , all the talented @galaxyconafterdark performers and many more creators, performers and vendors. See you next year! taken in Greater Richmond Convention Center by @mainichi_kaizen

Another amazing convention experience @galaxyconraleigh . Love catching up with old friends and making new ones.

Special shout out to the amazing cosplay guests who put on panels and take time to judge competitions. @chasisphotos and @jeanwanwan always giving the best lighting tips and how to make a home into a set. @handsomejordan always dispensing primo knowledge on painting and foamcrafting. Shout out to @heartlessaquarius and @cosplaychoco educating on wigs.

Shout out to the coolest booths around @ribbons.rivets @tanaford.designs @horriblesquirrel @galaxyconafterdark (thanks for signing my Miss Minutes @tredamarc ☺️)

Shout out to the many many many amazing cosplayer friends i made who all inspire me to try new things and create.

Had another great time at @galaxyconrichmond saw some familiar faces and met new loads new people. Kept forgetting to take pictures, but had a blast as my TVA engineer self. Gonna have to rematch next time. Attended fantastic panels by @chasisphotos and @jeanwanwan, @morganlefoy and @danielledenicola, and @nikkosplay. Got some cool vials for a future cosplay from @ribbons.rivets. Got to see some friends I haven’t seen in months, and others I haven’t seen in person in years (@macjavelins). Looking forward to making more memories. Until next time, most likely @galaxyconraleigh . taken in GalaxyCon Richmond by @mainichi_kaizen
