Megacon Orlando here I come! New Sanji Cosplay pics coming tomorrow or Thursday. Depends on how much time I have after work.

Well things are starting to look better job wise. I got a promotion at my morning gig. Now I can finally afford two bags of packaged tuna a month instead of just one! xD

Just thought I'd take a moment to share some personal life advice. Some of you may remember my previous mentions of a hectic work schedule. 60 hours a week between 3 jobs with no days off. Fortunately that phase is passed. Sure we all have our concerns over having money, being able to pay rent and all that other money needing stuff. But never do what I did. Make time for yourself. Set up a routine to go to the park once a week. Dedicate a day to just sleeping and reading. Keep one day open to go around town for errands and treat yourself to something. If you don't choose when to rest, you body will choose for you.

I finished my miniature camp fire. The log lay is not a standard one used in camping. I ended up with this design trying tp cover the light piece underneath. I them used UV resin and let it harden while holding it upside down to make the flame shape. Perhaps the fire is a bit too big, but I think this is a good first build.

Oh boy. I think I bit off more than I can chew for Megacon Orlando. I usually attend smaller cons with just a few voice actors for autographs. I really enjoyed Metrocon in Tampa. But now I'll get to see the voices of these characters all at once. Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Luffy, Nami, Megatron, Optimus Prime, Ashley Ketchum, The Forgers of Spy x Family, The cast of Futurama and more. No heckin way I can afford that many autographs. I only prepared for about 3 of these before. I have a feeling my wallet is about to be incinerated. o3o

Been making progress building up my crafting skills. Currently working on an LED miniature campfire. Will post pics soon.
