Just got back from Salt City Steam Fest, and boy am I beat! Not only is this the first major steampunk festival that I know of in SLC/Utah in general (besides the mass trade thing), this was also the first time I've ever run a booth! At least for me anyway. Despite the ungodly heat (poor AC system.... a requiem will be played in your honor), people showed up in droves, dressed to the nines. It was absolutely amazing seeing all the variety, both of style and age! Seriously, it was awesome seeing a few six year old cosplayers, only to turn around and see a few 80 year olds! I had an absolute blast.
I will admit, it was kind of a bummer that I didn't end up selling anything, but I gave out a crap-ton of business cards and people were very interested in what I had made. I also sat by a lady who does some awesome leatherwork as a hobby, and got a few tips and pointers from her while we sat chatting. Anyway, here's what pictures I was able to take of just some of the awesome costumes! I didn't get a lot, but there were times where it was so packed, if I stopped anyone it would have caused a problem. Oh well. Enjoy! These are all pretty freaking epic! Apologies that some came out a little blurry. Also if you see yourself, let me know in the comments below and I will tag your picture with your names!
