Description This is the small version of this Year's TsukinoCon poster, featuring our Mascots: Luna and Nox.

This year's theme was Norse Mythology, and so I dressed Nox up as Odin with his Dropnir Armbands, and Spear and Eye of Wisdom, circled by the two Ravens of his station. Luna is dressed as a sharp-shooting Valkyrie charging into battle under his Lightning banner...

I had a lot of fast-curve learning on this one - including a new method of colouring that I'm super excited to try out on something personal soon... I'm hoping it may save me a lot of time on future pieces!

It'll be a craaaazy trip. Although not as much as the one in APril.

This time there are only six shows in three weeks, rather than nine shows in two weeks. So i get more time in Tokyo to chill with my friends.

dalucia In reply to tarorae [2011-01-30 21:19:01 +0000 UTC]

well a rail pass helps. It's 760 or something for three weeks of unlimited travel on any JR trains anywhere in the country.

And then I stay with friends whenever possible; and we stay in cheap hotels (about 80-130$/night on the days we're actually ON tour. This trip I can't afford a lot of shopping *sad panda* but at least I'll get to see everyone ^_^ Plus I live with my grandparents still, so saving money on rent and food. ^_^
