From the Davis Graveyard booth<\/p><\/div>\n

Yes, the move to Florida is getting close, but the West Coast Haunters Convention<\/a> was finally in Portland, and there was no way I was missing it.<\/p>\n

\"13th<\/a>

13th Door brought a friend<\/p><\/div>\n

I went on Saturday. Sadly, I missed a couple classes on Friday that I would have loved, but time is what it is. I ended up taking a class on Zombie Skin. The class was great fun, but I wasn’t impressed with the durability of the product. I left a good swatch of the stuff on my arm, and it was peeling off badly in less than 30 minutes. Next I went to a class on facade design. Grr. The guy googled “spooky house” and made a PowerPoint presentation out of it. I wish I’d walked out of that one earlier, but I did get to see 15 minutes of Alex Hansen<\/a> using his stencils. And do click on that link, because iStencils is amaaaazing.\u00a0 Last class was scenic painting, and that was just stuffed with information. I learned tons.<\/p>\n

Had a great time wandering the vendors. Wish it had been four times bigger!\u00a0 I got to sit and have a horrible burn applied to my hand (sorry, pics were blurry), and I got to play with an airbrush for the first time. That could be addicting.<\/p>\n

I think the best thing I got out of my visit, besides the t-shirt, was the stencil link. I’ll be using that a lot.<\/p>\n
