Fast Times at Fan Expo Dallas
A couple of months ago I got an email from Betsy at The Dallas Socials, asking if I would be willing to cover Fan Expo Dallas 2015 at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson convention center downtown. Of course, I jumped at the chance, and it was well worth it. I had a blast taking photos, meeting people and shopping for geeky items. I also got to meet Charles Martinet, the voice of Mario, as well as one of my favorite sci-fi authors, Kevin J. Anderson. I even got a to take a break and paint some little plastic miniatures. It was a great experience, and I would highly recommend it. Here are just a few of the photos I got while I was there.
Captain America’s Shield
Charles Martinet
Kevin J. Anderson

I got to meet one of my favorite authors, Kevin J. Anderson, who was co-written a ton of prequels and sequels to the Dune series.
Leeloo

A picture of me with Leeloo from the Fifth Element. Only afterward did I realize she had a gun to my head.
Harley Quinn

A picture of me with a professional cosplayer named Silly Little Missy, dressed here as Harley Quinn.
Greedo

Greedo from Star Wars. He was going to get a picture of me, but I shot first.
Bounty Hunter
Frozen In Carbonite
Droid
Reaper Bones Miniatures

Reaper Bones had a booth where you could sit and paint a miniature for free. It was a great place to take a break from walking around.

My second Reaper Bones Miniature. I actually messed up with the red paint, but went with it to make her look bloody.

It was such a blast to talk with you and your mother during the convention!
Thanks, Meav! It was nice to meet you too! I’ll post 2016 pics soon.
