Here I am in my crusader costume at ValleyCon in Fargo, ND in 1999.  This was a very fun costume contest.  I'd never entered one before, and won "people's choice" and 2nd place with the judges.

This was the first time I was in armour in small group action up near Grand Forks, North Dakota.  Click on the photo below to see a museum picture of the armour kit I'm kinda shooting for and other neat stuff like that.
