I confess I found him funny on the game, but annoying at the same time.

You find me annoying too? How sad. But Fawful will never lack in Fury, no matter.

Oh yeah, the Ghostbusters were good. ^^ That was Spyro...? :paranormal:

One thing's for sure, I am definitely going to bring more of the originals to my watercolours, in fact I may bring my own pad and do a new one at the drawing tables, and also, I ought do a collab with Raye and co. I feel kinda bummed that I didn't ask to do one when we were together, in fact I should have shown them my sketchbook as well but there is always a next time I suppose.

Furry costumes look fun to wear and you can act like an idiot in public places etc.. Except for what people might think of you dressed up like that, I'd be more worried about someone coming along and tackling me to the ground!

WTF furry Megaman?

As far as fursuits went at MCM there were two people that went as Renamon from Digimon, and one dude when went as Pedobear. Anything kinda goes in this con. Furcons on the other hand, from some of the horror stories I've read, are a different story.

Ooohh yeah. I've heard my fair share of weird/disgusting stories. :pfff:

Furry Megaman.. he needs to be backstabbed.

Best thing though is that that guy didn't gay up the Spy costume by adding a tail or something.

The Pedobear was a girl, can you believe it? :D I have to admit that no only was that a tough costume it was also brave o_o I guess most non-4channers would have just seen a big bear and not the infamous Pedobear :D

Yeah, it's a shame we were swamped ;_; I didn't get much chance to talk to Qwertypictures either. We should have had a sit down and drawing session, those are fun

But yes you should definately be selling your watercolours, they're lovely. I would have paid for the Rayman one :D


I saw quite a few furries (or at least people in fursuits and heads) at the convention, but the ones i chatted to were super nice and in no way creepy like some furries I've chatted to. They were just out to have fun, like the zombies, ghostsbusters and anime freaks ;D

Not to mention I can tell from the photos that they appear to have put a lot of time and effort into those costumes.

And while I'm on that note, personally, I don't mind the people that draw themselves as animals or make detailed costumes like that, because that's art in a way. And they say that the animal may represent them, but they still hold onto the fact that they are human, and that the animal is just an avatar or icon. When people go as far as to say that that is their inner self animal and whatever crap, that's when I draw the line. Or that one guy that said once, "I am a tiger trapped in a man's body. : ("

I agree. I have no problem with people liking to dress up as their own creations, and if that creation is an animal it's fine. If people want to dress up as wolves or bears or snow leopards and really put time and energy into their costume then they have my respect

But i draw the line at people who are SO obsessed with being an animal that its the main reason they make a fursuit. Furries are a community like any other, and like all communities you get the sane, normal ones who are doing it for fun and friendship and freedom to express themselves...and those who are a little too 'into' it and need to remember that they were born HUMAN.

Do want something like this for a Ly costume *0.0* Thing is though I'll probably have to get a long wig to make the tail.

Well I've more than 6 months to consider I suppose.

It's a nice wig and it would be perfect!

I once had a girl dress up like Ly just to get my attention because she had a crush on me... she never liked Rayman nor really played video games. I mentioned that on RZ back when it happened like... years ago, actually. lol :|

But that wig is frickin' awesome. Wear it sometimes even if you don't go around as Ly. XD

Hey Stacey, while in a local charity shop today I saw a long fake braid-wig thing. It would have been good as a tail if you're still interested in being Ly. The only downsides were it wasn't high quality hair (more like that fake plastic used in cheap wigs), and it was light purple as opposed to Ly's natural colour so finding a matching wig would be interesting

...I really should have taken a photo...
