HOBCON 2010 - Imperia Winners at Ayala Center Cebu - Results

HOBCON 2010 - Imperia finally ended last October 10, 2010. It was a worthwhile experience for 10.10.10.

We where like sardines in a small can at Ayala Center Cebu where HOBCON 2010 - Imperia was held. Cosplayers where everywhere and photographers are on its tail to get photos of them. It was a very exciting event because of the Contests:

• Best Male Cosplayer Contest
• Best Female Cosplayer Contest
• Best Group Cosplayer Contest
• Special Kiddo Cosplayer Award
• Photographer's Favorite
• Sykes' Pick (The Partner's Choice)
  
• CANE's Pick (The Organizer's choice)
  
• Young Designers' Fashion Competition
• Best Artwork
  
• Photo Wall Likes (had the number of likes on FB at the Imperia Photo Wall)
  

Photographers where given the best place for them to take pictures and cosplayers where getting ready with their outstanding costumes, props and their characters. Also, I have noticed that PA, friends and family are very supportive to their fellow member who cosplay. It was awesome seeing them supporting till the end.
