What got you into cosplay?
And overdose of anime and my hobby of sewing. Did I mention anime? Yes I did. But my love of the Drama club in high school doing costume work kinda carried over into cosplay.
What was your first costume and why?
Random school girl. It was easy and will it look really really cute. Everyone wants to wear a fuku. They just don't want to admit it.
What is your favorite costume and why?
Currently my Dragon Pink costume because it is very recognizable. I got many complements from tons of people. I think my bf is quite obsessed with that particular costume. For me? Mainly because I get to be a kitty!! Mew!
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Urd. It's one of the artwork pictures under a cherry blossom tree. It's so pretty. Though that's tied with Queen Kei from the Twelve Kingdoms. Then there is always Quon's ascended RahXephon form. Geeez there are soooo many things I want to do.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
MTAC has been my first con. Imagine that. I've making costumes for everyone else and finally got to go con for once. I loved it. The people were friendly. I had loads of fun.
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
PersaCon 2004 - Judges Award. I am so proud of the Dragonball & Dragon GT costumes I made for my kids. They were so cute. AWA 10 - Judges Award. Ragnarok Online Alchemist. Even though it was a to make I was pretty happy with the end result. MTAC 05 - Advanced Recreation. Violy - Ragnarok Online
Tell us a little about yourself
I hate my job more than anything else on the face of this planet. So cosplay helps me escape from it. I collect more like blow an excessive amount of money on anime. Then use whatever time I have on DDR, Para Para and Ragnarok Online. I love sketching and reading fantasy novels.
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
Mew! And yes I really am that old. All three of those kiddies are mine as well. >.>
