Comic-con Masquerade 2013
Comic-con Masquerade 2013
Hetalia World Crisis
The Tarr Family’s project to compete in the annual Comic-con Masquerade was a great success this year. Having taken a break from our usual fantastical creatures we chose to re-create characters from the popular Anime series Hetalia.
Thank you to all the Judges for awarding us Honorable Mention for our Outstanding Performance! The Costumes were made by Bryn and Lauren Tarr, Lauren also did the sound track and the skit.
We were happy to find there were a lot of Hetalia fans here at Comic-con and we basked in their admiration on Sunday taking every opportunity to pose with them.
Thank you to all Hetalians for your support!
Please take a minute to check our Hetalia World Crisis video from the competition below.
