Phoenix Comicon 2015

Phoenix Comicon was held from May 28 - May 31. This year I did something I have always wanted to do, I dressed up in my own costume as a Tusken Raider (aka the Sand People from Star Wars). I have been working on the costume off and on for almost a year.  I ordered the head piece from a guy who makes them in Tucson and then a friend of Dawn's made the robes. I then dyed the robes, wrapped the boots, and created a leather bandolier belt.

On the last day of the con, we joked that we invited 75,000+ people to Lexi's 18th Birthday.

Below are the pictures of the stars that were there that I saw, some of the great cosplayers and their costumes, things to buy, displays, the lego village, and the car show.
