All the responses were great but this one older guy on the Hyatt sky bridge totally flipped out, Jumping around and Yelling that he had been watching Astroboy for 50 years ! BEST RESPONSE ! He totally made my day.
I have a always loved all the inside Robot parts of Astro. I used to be obsessed with those lenticular T-shirts that showed the inside parts of him. So I really wanted to do a costume that showed the insides.I have been thinking about how I would do that for about 10 years.
I’ve always enjoyed dressing up in costumes for parties and Halloween. I first heard of Dragon con in 2004 when my Housemate went and came back with all these Amazing stories. My favourite part is designing and building the costume. I really enjoy the problem solving aspect. As an artist I feel wearable ART is a great way to display your work and interact with other artists. It also allows you to meet new people with similar interests.
