I went to ConnectiCon this weekend with a group of awesome people, and I demanded to take a photo with every Loki I saw. I had all my friends on the look-out for Loki cosplayers… ehehehe

SWEET JESUS LOOK WHAT I GOT TODAY GUYS

Artbooks for all the Marvel films… I haven’t had a chance to really look at them yet, but the slipcases are beautiful, and the covers of Thor and Captain America are REALLY nice… leathery and embossed. I think the inside book design is not quite as professional as Disney artbooks (like Marvel typography and layout choices are clumsier), but all and all… quality shit.

Before you ask, all of these books are available on Amazon. The Art of the Avengers ($28 USD) and The Art of Marvel Studios ($92 USD) - which is a boxset of four hardcover books, comes with that cool poster, and is the only way you can get Iron Man 1&2 artbooks new.

So, Benedict Cumberbatch… is a fantastic person. He seemed completely exhausted after signing about 8000 autographs, but still made time to look at the prints I brought him. He complimented me but I honestly can’t even remember what he said, I was so overwhelmed! I gave him one of the prints and he signed a copy for me; he also waved the producer Sue Vertue over to look at my work, which he didn’t have to do at all.

Overall impression: yes, he really is as lovely as he seems. :)
