One of the events that I’ve been looking forward to for a while now is Waku Waku +NYC, an anime / Japanese pop culture event located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. NYC has been long overdue for a dedicated anime event ever since NYCC ate up the New York Anime Festival, and it looks like Waku Waku is the answer to the lack of anime events.

Shooting with iphone
Not so long ago, when I began to really get into photography, I decided it was time to go for a big camera upgrade.

So it was time for a challenge: Leave the fancy camera behind, and shoot with just a phone!

Building Honnouji Academy
Those of you who have been following me for a while probably know by now that I’m a huge Kill la Kill fan. Needless to say I was pretty excited once the Fight Club Mako nendoroid came out, and once I got my hands on her, I knew I wanted to do something special.
So I made Honnouji Academy.
This post is mostly behind the scenes pics of how I made my Honnouji Academy set. I didn’t realized exactly how involved this build would be, but I’m pretty happy with the result!
Let’s get started!

Love Wins
Yesterday was a very special day for all of us here in the United States.
At last, the Supreme Court has ruled that same-sex marriage is a right for all citizens, a huge step for gay rights!
In the words of President Obama: “If we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well.” 🙂
