Since I already mentioned that myself and some of the guys were at a convention last month - and since someone expressed an interest (and I've got everyone's permission) - I'm going to now let you get a glimpse of a few of us.

If anyone else feels like sharing what they look like in RL, feel free to use this thread.

CJ posing with some artwork

CJ looking a bit more contemplative

Samwise

Samwise again twisted

Tilberios posing

Tilberios being lead astray by Samwise's Tails Doll plush

Tilberios losing a fight with an inflatable dalek

The Tails Doll enrolls Warnersister in its evil schemes

Xag, armed and dangerous

And last and most definitely least, me

(I'm cheating slightly in that that last photo is actually from the '04 convention; but I was tired enough to look outright haggard this year, and nothing seemed to particularly come out well.)

Weeee! Pictures! It was fun to see some of the faces behind the screen names. I might post a few sometime..if I ever get any others I like.

A whole bunch of my SCAD friends are planning on going to Dragoncon now, too... so I'll probably see you guys there!! heart

(P.S.-you look adorable, baybeh.)

What con were these taken from?

And do you go to any California ones?


It'd be nice to meet more fans of the fastest thing alive. And you all seem to know each other too.

They were taken at a con in Bristol, England, this May. We're all English, so we don't really have the cash to go to the big US conventions.

I've been a member of staff at Dragon*Con for a couple of years now, though, so I should be there in Atlanta in September.

Warnersister and I were at university together (from about seven years ago onwards, although we only really got chatting in my second year). Samwise, Xag, Tilberios, CJ, Eon and I all know each other from another message board, and have done for about three or four years.

I have a pic of myself and Dubble somewhere, too, taken in Atlanta in '03 - we met online whilst he was in high school and I was just starting my freshman year (seven years ago now). I'd have put that one up, too; but since being told that I looked like Skeletor in it (way to make someone with low self esteem, depression and a borderline weight problem at the time feel better about themselves...), I'm a bit nervous about showing it.

If you feel like meeting up and you're in the Atlanta area in September, try popping into Dragon*Con. smile

And Xag, you look fine! There's a reason why I didn't put any of this year's pics of me up, so you could've come out worse. smile

Stop trying to bolster my ego, guys - that's the best photo of me for about three years, but it's amazing what flattering light and a following wind can do. sweatdrop

Don't complain! You remind me of James Dean with that stubble and that pout. eek

Like Maryn just said: if you've never done that professionally, you should.

We're crazy.

*Pokes and tickles Nuala (despite knowing she's not exactly ticklish like crazy*

I never know what to say (and feel a little bad) when I jokingly put a photo of James Dean as my irl pic and people don't catch it (second time x: ) Though Nuala was right close. Thinking about it the joke would work better with a more well known visage, maybe people know JD more as a name than a face.

I'm sorry peeps, I is such a tease :B

No, I knew it was James Dean (there's only one guy who looks like that! blaugh ). I just decided to play along and wondered how far you'd string it out.

It seemed more fun that way.

Hence I mentioned Dean directly. wink

D'oh... I thought it looked like him... but I've never been a big Dean fan. Blarg. That just shows everyone else in this forum how intelligent I can be late at night... >.<

*laughs* I had four hours' sleep last night. Don't talk to me about running on adrenaline - I was just luckyt that my half-day at work's been shifted from Tuesday to Monday, due to a training course.

Again, since he was obviously up to something, I thought it more fun to play along than be a spoilsport. smile

Homan, I just got served/punked/faced/Iaminlackofabetterterm gonk xd

The first time I did it to my surprise no one caught it, it's always a joke that is meant to be caught (which is the joke) so I never know how to take it further. Joke's on me sad I'll be prepared next time twisted

Chibi Ma- It's not a question of intelligance, it's just recognition of an actor you're not that familiar with biggrin

Well here's an honest to goodness photo of ESC I'm the one all the way in the back.

You at least knew who James Dean was, Maryn - that's a lot more than most people around our age probably do.

My entire freshman year never seemed to've heard of James Stewart or Steve McQueen. It scared me. sad

Thanks! Was that taken where you work?
