Melbourne Art Fair and more!

Hi Thrillseekers!!

How are you all? You won't believe what's happening in the thrilling land of Thrill at the moment!

Thrill went to the Melbourne Art Fair over the last week (13th - 17th August). We had a stall with Exposition, part of MAF Edge. And it was amazing. We, at Exposition, were there to show that while we're all different stalls and from different areas, we all come together to create art. It was an amazing experience! We met so many new people, and taught a lot of people what cosplay actually is. It was wonderful!

We were featured first on Melbourne Art Critic, Black Mark's, blog here! Not quite Madame Red, but it'll do.

So what next? At the moment half of us will be at ChaOz over this weekend, 23rd-24th August, at our very own stall! We lots of copies of issue 2 to sell! So come buy one or just say hi!

We're hoping to start some new ventures when I move back to Melbourne soon. So hopefully I'll have more to write about!

But at the moment, just know, that there is nothing but good in store. And if you have ideas for any articles, or want to submit something, let us know. 

Stay happy and keep creative,

The Thriller,

This girl is on FIRE!!!

I would like to issue a huge apology to Saffy! I honestly thought I had put up her photos from Melbourne Armageddon 2013, when it turned out I hadn't. I am so sorry! So here you are! Saffy as Flame Princess from Adventure Time! (I love her expression in the last one!)

Convention prices and information for Anita G Photography!

Here it comes!

And that time of the year is upon us again, Con Season.

Ah yes, the time of year where cosplayers are frantically finishing costumes they started two days ago for a con in a weeks time. The time where we round up all money favours people owe us in order to spend money on fanart and merch. And the time when the city groans at the fact that yes, once again we shall be taking over the trains and trams.

This weekend (6th&7th July) Melbourne will be hosting the second year of Oz Comic Con. Many people are hesitant as last year there were extremely long lines, crowded areas everywhere and lots of confusion. Not so good eh?

However! This year OCC has moved to a new venue! The Royal Exhibition building, near The Melbourne Museum will be hosting this large affair of comic book lovers and cosplays.

Personally I can't wait, I'll be doing cosplay shoots, selling aprons and prints, and hanging out with my friends!

Can't make it to Comic Con? No worries, within the next few months Australia will also be hosting:

• AVCon (in Adelaide, 12-14th July)
• SMASH! (in Sydney, in August 10th)
• Manifest (in Melbourne, 16-18th August)
• Armageddon Expo (in Melbourne, 19-20th October)

So get your comic on and come down this weekend for a adventure of a time!
