Pathfinder Costume Contest at Gen Con!

[Boerngrim]

I know this may be too obvious, but I'm hoping for some lovely Seoni and Lavender Lil costumes. Seriously though, this is a very cool idea!

Pathfinder Costume Contest

[Wolfthulhu]

That's funny,I was thinking almost the same thing. What an amazing coincidence...

[James Sutter]

Remember folks, you don't have to do established characters (though it might be more likely to win you more points), it just has to be recognizably Pathfinder!

Also, non-staff contributors ARE eligible. Boomer, I'm looking at you... and I'd love to see Kortes and Vaughan compete for "Best Lini Outfit"....

[Lilith]

Need incentive? $50 = corebook! :P

You always discuss doing these costume contests when I'm working on other costumes.

Let's just get out of the way now.

Will there be a costume contest at PaizoCon or GenCon next year? I'll need that much of an advanced notice to do Seoni or Queen Ileosa Arabasti.

I instantly thought of your when I saw the blog entry today. I knew you'd be busy and bummed that you wouldn't be able to put something together in time.

I vote for The Queen!

P.S. - I am willing to front the prizes for a costume contest for PaizoCon 2010. Say $75 for first place, $50 for second, and $25 for third? Just have someone else do the voting, since I am a horrible judge.

Originally I was gonna make Boomer a quick Tiefling costume walk around with my in Lady of Pain. I think now, I'm gonna swing some a bit more Pathfinder! I should go look through the Campaign setting for ideas right now!

You mean you weren't reading the CS tonight anyway? Why ever would you be reading anything else?

Because I'm sewing. However, if tonight were the night to read. I would be reading the CS. For sure!

[Adam Daigle]

Dude, focus on the Lady of Pain. I seriously want to see that costume.

Whoa, hey now! Let's not be too hasty about ditching the Lady of Pain!

...she could be going on a date with Zon-Kuthon! (this may not be allowed at GenCon of course....)

(thinking on it further, dressing as Zon-Kuthon might actually be illegal in some states)

Hmm. What about one of the prestige classes? Mantis Assassin or Shackles Pirate? (Or one of the others, in female version if necessary...)

[Wicht]

Hmph - Too bad they couldn't have gone to Origins with this contest. :P

Wow. Was just looking at your site, your Silent Hill nurses are awesome!

Wait what?

...

I take back my warning. Zon-Kuthon should go over just fine!

(third most uncomfortable con-experience I ever heard about from my friends was being stuck in an elevator with a Pyramid Head. He remained silent the whole way down...)

Its funny you mention this. Boomer and I discussed taking the Lady to the Pathfinder booth and trying to pawn her off as a Priestess of Zon-Kuthon.

Thanks! I work very hard at my costumes.

I actually had another photoshoot done recently with a better dress, red contacts and full body make-up done. That should be posted while I wait for paint to dry.

Linkified!

I was seriously coming as a Plague Doctor, but there's no way I can put together the mask in the amount of time I have available, and none of the local costume shops have a halfway decent substitute. Next year, maybe. ;_;

Wow! Avianna you're the loveliest undead nurse I've ever seen. Great costuming.

[Misery]

I wonder how a male Seoni would go over ...

... maybe even threaten to stay IN the costume unless I win.

Probably pretty well, if you're built like an elf. The lanky androgynous male archetype has a strong fan club around these parts. :P

If I could make it and I'd love to come as a member of the Skinsaw Cult.

Ever read Crown of the Kobold King?

I have not.

This is awesome! I had a new costume planned for this year, but unfortunately it didn't work out. The person who was making it bailed out on me at the last minute. I guess I'll just have to have two new costumes next year.

I'm excited to see what people come up with.
