30th September 2013: The future So after Eurogamer, Onyxy is a bit worse for wear, both boots split open, my upper arm guards have fallen apart and there were a few bits that I just didn't like, so hopefully he's going to get a spruce moose in time for October MCM Comic Con.

This time he is definitely going in a suitcase though, traversing the underground with a bin bag of cosplay was not fun in the slightest!

28th September 2013: And the winner is... AwesomeBlossom (http://www.cosplayisland.co.uk/overview/awesomeblossom) and I have won the best group at Eurogamer Expo 2013!!!!!!! Oh yeah!

28th September 2013: Eurogamer! Eurogamer has finally arrived! After a very late night/morning (5-6am) the costume is complete. Time for 2 hours sleep and then journey into London with the cosplay loaded up in black bags.

23rd September 2013: Boots are finally completed! Finally completed the boots. Eurogamer is fast approaching and it seems like a mountain of stuff still left to do.

25th July 2013: Helmet progressing! Finally nearly finished my helmet after not getting much done due to work and my parents visiting. Hopefully be fully completed ready for plastidipping and painting by the end of the weekend. Going to really have to beast the body armour! Only a month and a bit left!!!

17th July 2013: LLLaaaannnceer Finally got my hands on a lancer! None of this retro lancer rubbish. Going to strip it down, sand it up, LED this badboy and give it a good painting.

23rd June 2013: It begins Finally started on armour building. This 'thing' is the start of a boot, it seems to be taking a rediculously long time to get going, hopefully i'll be speeding up soon.

30th May 2013: Mini EL wire inverter Got an EL wire inverter that takes a CR2032 battery and it did well, lasted 4 hours with 1m of EL wire, probably go with a 9v or 2xAA inverter instead though. Good experiment and would be handy if I was really short of space but should be enough space in the helmet for them.
