Archon's NYCC Trip

Archon_Turtle · 04-20-2008, 01:29 AM

Los Angeles, to New York, back to Los Angeles in 24 Hours...I haven't slept yet...so bear with me...and yes, I realize I look like ass in these pictures...again...didn't sleep.

Things I learned while in New York:

1. The city is incredibly dense...its like the whole of Los Angeles packed into a third of the space.

2. I love all the brick...we don't have much brick in LA anymore...stupid earthquakes.

3. Beautiful cemeteries.

4. Worst roads E-VAR!

5. Worst Drivers E-VAR!

Anyway, on to the part you care about.

My usual visit with Kevin.

Peter Clearly Giving Me The "Is This Guy For Real?" Look.

The Signing.

The Sig.

The Tat! FINALLY! I decided to leave out the year in the tattoo...it just wouldn't have looked right.

And here is the Con exclusive signed by both Kevin and Peter

Well, mission accomplished...relatively as planned...except for that whole not sleeping thing...which I'm going to go take care of right now!

Seem's like your trip turned out great...can't believe you even got the tat in the middle of it. The boxed set looks great signed...so were Peter and Kevin talking?

*VaughnMichael* · 04-20-2008, 01:04 PM

Congrats man you deserve it!
Peter looks at you like your crazy, I know he's met allot crazier fans haha

Dude, I was one who snapped all those photos of you with Pete. Glad they came out nice. I just kept snapping away, hopeing one or 2 would actually fly...

Anyways , Petes reaction was PRICELESS!
He totally couldn't believe what you were asking him! I remember him saying "ah, so your the guy..." But he actually did it which was pretty cool...

And I don't think you heard him, but when you where asking for opinions on where to put the sig at, Steve Lavigne commented "how about on your right a**cheek"...classic!

Anyways, cograts man. Glad it all turned out well

OMG dude, I didn't even realize that was you! Thanks so much! When you said "oh youre that guy from the drome" it didn't even occur to me to ask who you are...probably because I was so loopy from lack of sleep at that point that I was hallucinating lol.

Awesome Archon, just one question, is you boxed set a mistake, looks like you have 2 Mikeys in there. (At least head sculpt wise)
