Jeff Krodel, one of the best SFX artists on the planet, was busy at his trade from the instant he got set up. |
 |
Tiana and Nadia . . . patiently waiting for Jeff to get a break so they can get their own make-up done... |
 |
Nadia is just clowning around with some pirate... |
 |
Jeff has been busy for hours. No time for Tiana and Nadia! |
 |
It's hard to tell who is scarier, Nadia or the animatronic! |
 |
Work, work, work! |
 |
Halfway through the day, Jeff still hasn't had a break! |
|
Still waiting... lol |
 |
And the make-up continues... |
 |
FINALLY! |
 |
"Awwwww... I wanted to go first!" Nadia proclaimed! |
 |
"Yes, Carl! You've got me stooping so low as to pose with THIS guy!" |
 |
Did you ever see a
zombie pose for a picture before? I know, I know!
Tiana was "dying" to get her picture taken! lol |
 |
FINALLY! |
 |
"Carl! This is not a 'BEFORE' picture!" |
 |
My two favorite
zombies!
- Carl |
 |
Robert Kotabish, owner of RAK films. Bob's a pretty good guy. He even drove all the way from the Cleveland area just to hang out at the store today. |
t |
This is Linda. She runs the store every time I'm at a convention. |
 |
Three lovely ladies!
- Carl |
 |
"Carl, why am I promoting your movie and you're promoting mine??" |
 |
"I think Carl has been drinking... " |
 |
"Hurry, Carl! Take the picture before these two run away and hide!" |
 |
Three great people
here, folks!
- Carl |
 |
This is Ed. He's one of our favorite customers! |
 |
"Carl, have you been drinking?" |
 |
This is Poncho, the
son of a vendor across the aisle. I think someone hit him in the
head with a hammer!
Poncho asked, "Hey, Carl! Do you have an aspirin? I have a headache!" |
 |
"Will I ever get a break to eat my breakfast?" |
 |
"Not until you get my make-up done!" |
|
"I haven't had a chance to go to the bathroom all day!" |
 |
"That's more information than I needed to know, Jeff!" |
 |
I know what this kid was thinking! "There are some strange people in this store... " |
 |
Poncho getting a touch up! |
 |
This is Tom, a vendor across the aisle from me. It's amazing he can make sales looking like this! |
 |
Where would I be without other vendors and their kids? |
 |
Just in case some people are afraid of clowns... |
|
"I still can't get a break to hit the bathroom!" |
 |
Poncho asks, "Carl, do you have a bandaid?" |
|
"I'm about ready to explode!" |
 |
"Carl, give Jeff a break!" |
 |
"SERIOUSLY!" |
|
"Carl's a real slave driver! I haven't had a break all day!" |
 |
"Plenty of more people are waiting, Jeff!" Carl told his friend. |
 |
This lady is noticing the strange look on Jeff's face... |
 |
"Braaaiiiinnnnsssss!" |
 |
This is what Robert Kotabish looks like after a few hours in my store! lol |
 |
This is the last person in line to get their face made up by Jeff. |
 |
"Do you think she's
happy, Jeff?" Carl asks his friend. "Jeff?
Jeff? Where'd you go?"
Then, Carl hears the sound of a toilet flushing and a huge sigh... |
