Great artwork but it doesn't match the whimsical nature of Izzy's work. Love the otter thou.

 

I'll withhold judgement until I see the sculpt. 

 

Last week Ron was talking about an exclusive 75mm version that would be given to M&G ticket holders.  Ron talks a lot of BS, so I'll wait and see on that, too.

I really like it.

A 75mm would be freaking epic. He does talk a lot of smack.

 

I haven’t seen the VIP badges. Did I miss something, those not happening this year?

No, they are not. Basically, everyone bought one, so there was no point in having them.

As do I, as I like Max's art style, just being a old foogey when it comes to Reaper & ReaperCon Sophie, it'll always be best interpreted by Izzy "Talin" Collier. Knowing who Sophie is doesn't help that either, ha ha.

 

Max did the art in the pre-release "Spelljammer Academy" last year. Funny to his artwork in full color. I think I like in these shades more.

Wait, I didn't know there was a backstory there!  Who is Sophie?

 

Sophie in real life is Izzy's wife.

 

Sahweet!! My games were approved for the Con.

Oooo druid Sophie!

 

...My costume collection is sadly lacking in any bits or pieces I could pull together for this. So, do I try to create yet another Sophie costume from scratch, or go with one from a previous year? Dilemma.

 

Huzzah!

You know? It's been a really long time since I've taken a factory tour. Maybe this year is the time.

 

Last time I took the tour was in 2006, my 2nd year attending. Pretty sure it's changed since then. :poke:

There's been quite a few changes since.

 

They got a new coffee machine!

Yeah, I'm thinking the same. We were too tired last year after M&G to have a look around, and never got back over to the factory.  I haven't seen any of the new spaces.

Eh. They had a good run. 

 

You still have 4 months.... 

 

 

Just realized I forgot to book a room for Wed night at the hotel.  Was hoping to add a night at the con rate, but no luck. Ouch.  But since our local November game con just cancelled due to booking conflicts with their hotel, and the October game con isn't likely to happen, Reapercon will be our last of the season so why not spend a little extra.

I think my last tour was during the two years at the PEC. Not as long ago, but not recent.

Well, I only saw your ‘22 costume, so any other would be new to our clan.  I’d like to rework my heavily brocaded vest from my pirate getup into something new, but so far, vampire is all I’ve come up with.
