Howdy!
« on: December 07, 2019, 11:54:15 AM »
~5 year Oregon transplant here! My boyfriend introduced me to the world of trooping and I'm very excited to get involved whenever we can get a costume together. I have some years of of cosplay experience under my belt, but I've never used it for charity! So, hey, all! Super stoked to get plugged in and meet new folks and make kiddos smile. :)

Many thanks! I'm in the portland metro area :) originally from the bay area in California (hope no one gets their pitchforks and torches over that..)

Awesome, welcome to the forums! Do you have a specific costume in mind? If you do we can definitely point you towards some resources to help as well!

Thanks everyone! We were thinking of going for an original trilogy xwing pilot. I think he said he might have found someone who could put one together, so fingers crossed!

What part? I’m from Salinas, but have lived in SF, Fresno, and Santa Cruz.

Oh neat! I grew up in Sonoma County, and later I lived in Oakland for a short while near Lake Merritt. I'm a lot happier up here in Oregon. Folks are generally a lot kinder up here in my experience, and even though the portland metro area is getting more expensive, it's still cheaper than the bay area.

Welcome !  We have someone local who makes X-wing pilots "stuff".   Danny Chen is the name and I believe this is his store https://www.etsy.com/shop/Cospl88    Portland is full of CA transplant ; )  My family included from the east bay (Pleasanton).
