One of the highlights of this year's San Diego Comic Con was the amazing cosplay by Holly Conrad and her crew at Crabcat Industries, a cadre of dedicated Mass Effect fans who produced some of the most amazing cosplay we've ever seen. Now Holly and her cronies are at it again, this time hitting up PAX in Seattle for a weekend that promises to be memorable. Here's Holly now with a little info:

 


Comic con was a blast, and creating costumes based on Mass Effect had to be one of my better ideas. Though despite making an angry adolescent Krogan a reality, little kids seems to love Grunt rather than run away in fear. But, Mass Effect had such a following at comic con, nearly everywhere we went people knew what universe we were from. Mass Effect IS the new Star Wars, or at least that's what I've been telling people. My friends and I were hooked the second we realized we could have our own spaceship, break up cat fights, and romance aliens, not necessarily in that order. When the insanity that was comic con ended we got word that we were accepted to a panel at PAX, and we quickly asked people that wanted to see us continue to make costumes and love Mass Effect for their generous credits to keep the Normany running now that we've dumped Cerberus (or get us to Seattle). Now, with everything in order, we're ready to fly up there and present the best Mass Effect, games, costumes, and weird youtube video related panel we can possibly present. We've even started making a real imaginary company for ourselves...Crabcat Industries, so that we can start making more costumes and tutorials for other gamers to enjoy. So thank you to everyone, Bioware for their generosity, Darkhorse for their awesome break room and Mountain Dew, and all of those that have made this journey possible with their donations. You won't be dissapointed, or if you are, we love you anyway.

See you at PAX!
