(Note: the LJ icon has nothing to do with the subject- I just wanted to show off an idea that came to me after I made a Usenet post regarding a certain show on ABC Family, formerly Christian Broadcasting Network...)
At long last, I've had all the film developed (what little there is) from this year's A-Kon- at least from my own disposable cameras. (If you're looking for digital cameras, you can bloody well buy me one- plus a computer capable of running the software to decant the images.)
Anyhow, for legal reasons I'm -not- posting the cosplay pics, which were the bulk, publicly. What's here is artists and other stuff.

This year's WLP booth, as of Friday about 3 PM.
I took a couple of pics of attendees at WLP's annual room party. Unfortunately I forgot to do this until late, and that plus the much larger than usual accommodations we had makes it seem like there were fewer people than there were. I only wish I'd been able to take a pic during the Match Game!


These taken in the suite's bedroom, where I ran the long-feature track vs.
bar1scorpio's short-feature weird stuff and AMVs. This room also included the WLP Reading Library, being enjoyed by the gentlemen in the upper pic.

Rather a late shot of the front room, which had the food (at this point long consumed, except for the chips, which weren't touched- what's with THAT? Next year no chips for you!) and the short-feature viewing, under
morphy's technical supervision.

The How-to Hentai panel, the second panel WLP was on Saturday night. The first panel was... well... less. Much, much less, despite BAR-1's and my ill-thought attempts to fill out time on a topic that was DOA. For the not-photographed panel, my apologies to the other participants; for those who attended the Hentai panel, next year will be more organized and MUCH funnier!
Now for a few artists:

James Dawsey, creator of currently on-hiatus Shadowchasers. I think this was taken just before the first panel.

bar1scorpio (artist for Peter is the Wolf) and, a bit further in background to BAR-1's left,
roninjedi, aka Michael van Slyke. This taken between panels, if memory serves.

The elusive
darkzel! This taken either just before or just after the Hentai panel- again, I forget.
It must be nice to go to conventions and have no responsibilities- no work, no panels, no volunteering, no sales, just three days of fun with a camera and other things. One day I might be able to do that...
