Tour of our geeky house!

So it's been like a million years since I've updated my blog! Tons of stuff has happened since the end of last year! Change of job, wedding prep, moving house etc!!
Anyway I thought I'd kick off with a post of all the geeky stuff we have around our house!

Ok so lets start with the gaming room. This is where my partner plays ME3 so I can watch my own things on TV lol! So in this room is like a collection of games, comics, manga, art books and DVD/Blu rays.

Left top to bottom: Collectors editions, odd bits and pieces, games, manga art books
Right top to bottom: More collectors editions, 4 shelves of manga, and 2 shelves of comics. (tons more comics in storage.)



 Alright.. this blog is gonna be pretty image heavy so....

Armageddon Auckland 2012 Black Cat Cosplay

Armageddon Auckland 2012!! Had a super awesome time, especially since it was my first cosplay. It was fun having everyone ask me for photos, and there were some other really epic cosplayers there too!
People knew who I was too which is always good. Anyway, I shall include all my con photos :D
Chilling out in the morning before the doors opened!

Dredd 3D

Decided to go out for some late evening shopping with the fiance, and while we were out, we decided to check out Dredd 3D.
Now admittedly, I don't know a heck of a lot about Judge Dredd. I wasn't sure about the movie either, the trailer didn't really grab me.
But I was pleasantly surprised! I really enjoyed it. I think it always helps if you don't really know too much of the back story though. If you know the comics really well, you will always be more of a critic!

Black Cat Cosplay!

Super excited! I had my first photo shoot in cosplay yesterday, and it was an amazing experience!
I wanted to do a really sexy character, because if your going in, you may as well go in the deep end!
I picked Black Cat (aka Felicia Hardy) from the Spiderman comics.

I got my first photo back from my photographer, and she's done an amazing job!




A couple of months ago, I'd have never been caught dead in this costume! All thanks to going to the gym, I felt super confident, and now I can't wait to rock this costume at Armageddon next weekend!
I also have a few more photos to add to my work in progress post, so you can see the work I did :)

*edit: another photo :3

Mon-sieur BOME Kirasaki Sai

As I've collected more figures, I decided I just have too many. They really do take up a lot of space. Some of my figures just have to go. Before they do, I decided to do a photo shoot!
This one maybe less detailed than Halloween-Chan, but has it's own charm. Introducing Kirasaki Sai!




Mon-sieur BOME Halloween-Chan

As I've collected more figures, I decided I just have too many. They really do take up a lot of space. Some of my figures just have to go. Before they do, I decided to do a photo shoot!
After the Blue Oni-Musume, Halloween-Chan was the next Bome figure I purchased.
This is one of the figures I don't have room for but wasn't sure if I should actually sell her!
