    Talking Kilts and Costumes at the Sci-Fi Con

    Over the weekend I attended the FenCon sci-fi convention in Dallas. Before we get to the photos, I'll say up front the title of this thread is a little misleading, because while there where at least 12 or 15 guys in kilts around the con, (all UK's or similar except for me and one other fellow) I didn't get pictures of any of them! No way to tell how many of those guys only donned their kilts while in the hotel, but a dozen or so kilties out of a crowd of about 650 is a pretty good number at a non-Celtic event.

    Anyway, on to the photos....

    The big theme for hall and contest costumes this year was Steam Punk, there where many, many SP themed costumes...honestly, I got a little tired of seeing them.




    I'm not totally down on the Steam punk stuff, I thought this steam segway was really great!



    But, you can still have a really nice costume without googles amd gears....
