[@Addictive_Code]

I once met tomska at a comicon and because I wanted to buy something from his stand, I had to ask. unfortunately, I was very nervous, and after 3 audible failed attempts of asking I just blurted out "DO YOU LIKE MONEY??". he smiled and said "I am known to like money on occasion yes". I still feel embarrassed but in retrospect I think its a funny story to tell friends.

​@@Shadamyfan-rs8xc yeah, I'd say Elliot definitely Try'ed Hard, he just went for more of a "my costume is clothing" than "full-on fursuit" look, but both are legitimate and real cosplays, and all three were cursed, just differently cursed. Eddie's by being a version of a horror character that was altered just slightly enough to honestly make them creepier. Elliot's by showcasing the sexy side of Doctor Robotnik and constantly carrying a Sonic around. Tom by being a boat and running into walls. All cursed, but in such good ways.

[@DokkaChapman]

When I saw Tom at Megacon in March there was a guy dressed as Michael Myers from Halloween that would just stand a few metres away from him, staring. When I brought it up Tom cut me off and sighed "I know, just don't give him any attention". It seems Tom might have been inspired by that cause I get the feeling dressing up as a boat and getting in everyone's way would be equally as annoying lol.

Tom really embodied the spirit of being a cosplayer when you suddenly have no time. ive made ALL these mistakes before. its a horrible learning curve and I'm very sorry you had to go through it Tom but youre such a trooper Also as a warning to others, hand-held sewing machines are rarely worth it. it's literally better to rent/buy a cheap one than to use a handheld if you want strong, reliable stitches.

[@heresywithana]

I'm impressed Tom got a costume done in such a short time. If I was in Tom's situation I'd probably have invested in a furry costume by that time.

Fursuits cost about 4K if u want a good one and also can take months to finish.

Most importantly though, you embodied all the characters, had a shed load of fun... and sweated profusely. I love you guys!
