Cosplay is becoming one of my favorite hobbies. I've been making cosplay costumes since around 01-02. Most have been for friends, but I'm making more for myself now, and it's been a lot of fun so far.

I really adore group cosplay above all else, so if you see a costume up here from me in the same series as something you cosplay, feel free to contact me about convention meet-ups :D

I'm starting to branch out and make larger and larger projects as I continue this hobby. I'm in love with making armor stuff now, and plan on making a lot more for myself and friends.

What was your first costume and why?
Relena Peacecraft; it fit well at 16.
What is your favorite costume and why?
So far, it's been my Lina Inverse. Man, I love that costume! It was so much fun. I really enjoyed how much of a reaction people had to it. A lot of people still love that show :3
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
There are way too many, both good and bad for me to pick one most memorable cosplay moment.
Do you participate in masquerades?
Not usually...It's not my thing, really.
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Cosplaylab.com's look-a-like for Fujiko Mine in the Lupin III contest A showcase for my Maetel here on cosplay.com
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
I attended an art-specialized highschool, where my selected subject of study was costuming (construction and design) in our theater department. I learned alot there, and it got me on the right path for cosplaying.
