How come nobody has started a thread with DragonCon pics yet? I didn't get to go and I always like seeing pics of what went down there, and get an idea what to expect next year.

Tons have been posted on Facebook.
Here is a link to this weeks iReport on CNN. They cover Dragon Con, I believe Novall and his custom are seen in the parade clips :)

I arrived in town around 3:30 on Friday. After unloading the truck, and checking in to my room, I break out my Commander Gree armor and hit the circuit.

(Thanks to TD-4694 for taking those!)
Saturday morning was the parade… this year was awesome because I had two BARC troopers backing me up. While I don't have pictures, one of the highlights of the parade was a full-on Mad Max group, complete with the battle wagon with the two corpses up front and the hockey mask muscle dude. Search Flicker, you'll see 'em. Thousands upon thousands of people lined the streets.

Those are some awesome costumes! I'm always amazed seeing people in Predator costumes cause they all look fantastic!
Trying not to threadjack here but is there a costuming site like TDH for Predators?
Yep! http://www.thehunterslair.com/Quote:

Dragon Con 2009 - Part 2
I have JUST finished my Phase 2 501st Clone Trooper and this was the first time I even put it all on together! It came together really great and I could not be happier with it.
Wow Kimmy! You look fantastic in your Illyria! And you both look terrific together in Iron Man/ Pepper. Andy...absolutely incredible.
Thanks much, Mirax. :D
Thank you Mirax! :hug

Your Gree armor looks phenomenal. Love the paint and wear work.
The Alien Nostromo space suit award was well deserved. The bronze work gives it a slight nod to steampunk.
LOVED the Chewbacca Mighty Mug, and the two Slave Leias after that photo (my goodness, that girl on the left is probably the most photographed in the fandom! Who is she, anyway?)
The Bumblebee was indeed awesome. Would have loved to see more wear and carbon scoring, etc. and to make the armor appear thicker.
The first Tony Stark - is that Vaderpainter? (Jim Bean or what'shisname?)
And the first Comedian was a great likeness.
:cheers
Awesome pictures, definatly wanna go there some day... ooow what cool would that event be!:D
That Zam was me. I didn't know you took that picture Thomas. :)
It's been a while! I need to scrounge and find my Dragon Con Pics! Good to see some faces from the past!
