I had a pretty big weekend. I traveled interstate to Melbourne, Victoria with my partner, my brother, his partner and two mates of ours to attend PAX AUS 2016.
Massive weekend, I am exhausted. Just got home late last night. Our days consisted of early mornings, lots of walking, late nights, and then I went and did some judo.
I got heaps of photos... so here's a few.
We arrived a day early to go check out the venue as well as pick some stuff up.
They were promoting Dishonored II with Emily's throne, so I sat on it like the weirdo that I am.
My partner and I met Jordan from the Australian comedic band, Axis of Awesome. They were really good. My partner is also cosplaying as Harley Quinn, not the Suicide Squad version, thankfully.
My partner as Harley Quinn, getting a photo with someone cosplaying as Ciri.
We met this fella, "The Batman of Melbourne City". This guy's costume was amazing, looked dead on like the movie. Apparently he does this as a job, attending children's birthday parties, charity events etc. dressed as Batman.
I'm a big fan of Penny Arcade, so we attended all of their panels, including their Make A Strip panel.
At the end of the trip and after PAX, I was invited to come train at the Senshi Academy, a mixed martial arts club in Melbourne that specializes in judo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, MMA and muay thai. I'm here with Ivo Dos Santos, an Australian judoka who competed at the 2012 London Olympics. He's the head coach of Senshi Academy's judo and a co-owner of the academy as well. I had such a great time training here.
And that was my weekend.
