Nice pictures IanC!
I just got back...and it was awesome! *dances wildly*
I bought far too much (I now have loads of random anime to watch) and also spent £80 on boots, but that wasn't at the expo.
I met some really nice people, saw some amazingly-dressed cosplayers and have decided I am going to Amecon, hell or high water.
Hope everybody had as fantastic a weekend as I did! |

Ended up coming both days, so there's a sign it was good, never been on a sunday before it was a bit of an impromtu trip and did most of my shopping on the sunday too, spend around £150ish over the weekend.
Awsome time, guests were awsome too, didn't take many pictures and out of the ones I did most were of the guests. There was a cospalyer on sunday dressed as Amatarasu from Okami (PS2) who looked awsome.
I'll get my piccys up when I'm back home and not down here in london. _________________ "Ah! Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

There will be a few of us going to Amecon next year.. _________________ "Ah! Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

Ooh! Exciting!
Any idea when you have to start getting tickets?
My friend and I want to cosplay, so we're going to see about costumes now (she works with fabric a lot, and we got inspired by the Expo)
I am turning out to have a desperately sad life :  |

Amecon is a case of keeping an eye on the webiste and sites like eyeonanime, they usually send us a press release. with 1300+ places it doesn't sell out in a matter of weeks, but booking well in advance is better rather than leaving it late as their isn't as many on-site accomadation places as their is con places. I think about 800 on site places.

Id love to go Amecon, but if its the same time as it was this year (second weekend in August) it will be a tight squeeze. _________________ Avatar: Asuna from Negima.

Those pictures are good too!
Next year I am definitely bringing a camera so I can take some pictures. There were some really good FMA and Final Fantasty cosplayers yesterday when I went.
Wow, you can get accommodation on site?! That'd be great...
I'll definitely keep an eye out! Thanks for the advice.
And argh this it is hard to type whilst wearing gloves...  |
