Update on the @Sndbox Quest, @DLive Contest & more Cosplay a-la-México

in comics •  6 years ago 

For the past few days I´ve been a Comic Convention and apart from customer service, I´ve literally had time only to sleep and share with you a lot of pictures from the experience.

To be honest I haven´t had enough time to check most of the @Sndbox Art Quest and even though @guyfawkes4-20 could easily select the winners, we want to really put time into it and to choose carefully who will have the opportunity to join the Summer Camp Final Quest. For that reason, I haven´t curated most of the entries but worry not, I will get to it tonight, also we will announce the winners in around a bit later than usually.

Remember you still have time to join this Quest, the deadline is in May the 8th at 11:59 pm PST.

If you don´t know about the Sndbox Art Quest, you can check out the rules here.

For the @DLive Contest, I am amazed to see how many newbies to DLive have joined, this is amazing and I´ve had some time to watch the videos and curate appropiately but I haven´t had time to select the winners. For that reason and because I will be a bit busy choosing the Sndbox winners, I´m going to give you guys 2 more days to submit an entry. That means you have until May the 8th at 11:59 pm PST to submit an entry to the Contest.

If you don´t know about the @DLive contest where there is 100 SBD in prizes,, you can check out the rules here.

Please, if you have friends who are interested in Art or are video enthusiasts, let them know about these two events where they can express themselves and get some rewards in the process.

I am right now inside my Comic book stand and there´s people already asking prices and if I have X number from Y Series, so I don´t have a lot of time, but what I do have, is more than 30 new pictures I took yesterday from people wearing costumes. This is called Cosplaying and it is one of the most practiced hobbies in the comic, rpg games, vidya and hobbies in general.

Those I recognize, I am including the names, those I don´t recognize, I guess you´ll have to help me by leaving a comment here if you know who they are :D

I'm stuck in editing for my DLIVE video hahaha

Ok nerd mode again

Dva from Overwatch prime waifu materials pilots a mech, a gamer and has a diet of Doritos and Mountain dew which is what I have in my ref haha


Ryuko Matoi of Kill la Kill anime still in safe mode haha

I saw a cosplayer wore this

Spider - Woman who is Jessica Drew first appeared in Marvel Spotlight #32 cover-dated February 1977. She had her own series Essential Spider-Woman, Vol. 1 but I admit I was not a fan.

Contrary to everyone's thought she is not in anyway a cousin or have any relation to Peter Parker's Spiderman.

Became a bad guy at one point as she was in Hydra under the name Arachne.

Was in Secret Wars and Spider verse story line. I saw more of her in the Secret Wars storyline and from the few Avengers cartoon movies and series that I watched. I admit I am more a DC fan in tv shows and animated movies.

Comic book nerd here!

Super Nerd xD

Hahaha guilty of anything nerdy!

Dude you are simply amazing, this vote was short of what you delivered :D I'll edit the post asap, thanks!

ahahaha well if its geeky stuff I am your man, comics, manga, anime, video games just no math questions please though hahahaha

Interesting.... is the reality of cosplay at conventions 50% women in leotards , or is that just a nomad's biased eye? I would have thought it was mainly blokes that attended these events.

Not that I'm complaining, that's my kind of bias. Looks/ sounds like you had a nice break.

Thanks for the @ocd nomination! Appreciated.

I might act like an old dude checking out skirts,you are right on that one, but I can swear it was around 70% sexy dressed chicks. Twas a nice break but I went there to sell, it wasn't that good but well, at least I got to go around a new city :D

Sounds like a nice job/ income stream, even if it doesn't bring in that much. It all helps.

And 70% is a better ratio than beer festivals. I may have to get myself a Dumbeldore outfit.

Karl.

I think you're enjoying your weekend as a merchant, and I think you're in love, because you've fallen in love with a lot of hahaha, I have a doubt, they all posed for you? or was there a moment of photos? the truth is that whatever the option, it seems to be a fun and long-awaited party for many! it's how the carnival in my country (at least before it was like this) I wish your sale was a success!

Hahahaha yeah, I fall hard very easily but also fall out easierly haha. They all posed for me, I just walked to them and asked for a photo, cosplayers love that kind of attention! I mean, I would also love to feel like a superstars with people asking me for pics :D

I love comics are my passion and even one day I hope to become a comic writer, I find it very fun to go to cosplay events but in my country they do not make them so one day I hope to go to the comic con

Thank you for the updates @anomadsoul

As you may know I am a big dlive fan, and vlogger, but I might just wanna take part in your dlive contest because I still consider myself a noob haha.
Also awesome pics, I like Robocop and "Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z if he was a mexican woman" hehe

Oh you should! If I don't find an entry from you my heart will be broken forever :(

Would you look at that, I JUST uploaded my vlog for the contest. Like at the exact moment you commented this.
O.o ... are you in my head?

I love to watch pictures of cosplay)) Sometimes I'm offered to sew one of the costumes, but as always - just do not have enough time.

Oh noooo, I can understand that. I wish I could immerse myself more into this world of random but I can't even find time to write posts sometimes !

Looks like you're having a killer time. Thanks for sharing with us!!

Thanks for extending the contest days cos I just got a phone few days back and thanks to steemit which made this possible

That's awesome my friend, now there is no excuse,you gotta make the video!

Some great photos, I think it's a real fun there. Thanks for sharing it with us.

That Saiyajin girl did look like a warrior from Frieza force but that guy looked like Krillin when he had hair.

Still I could see that it would have been a fun place to be. Man Warsaw needs a comic convention like right now and for that I am even willing to go as sponge bob :-)

Yeah probs it was more like a frieza soldier rather than Vegeta :P

Lol I know man, I didn't know Poland didn't have conventions like this one, are there not many comic fans there?

No man, in fact we had one last month in wasraw but I wasn't here at that time. Now I am waiting, albeit a little impatiently for the next one to happen :-)
