What got you into cosplay?
It's all my friend Tanya's fault! ;) She was the first person I knew who cosplayed. She piqued my interest, and I was instantly addicted, even before deciding on my first costume!
What was your first costume and why?
Kikyo from InuYasha. I was taking 21 credit hours (7 classes, mostly hard sciences) that semester and I wanted to make a costume that I was already familiar with, could get done in a decent amount of time, and still had enough details for me to indulge my OCD.
What is your favorite costume and why?
So far, Kikyo. I put a ton of work into it when I should have been studying (and it's one reason my grades were not quite what I needed them to be) and had a blast doing it. The first time I wore it, I got lots of compliments, and then I was the only Kikyo at my first con. That just made my day, and tons of folks complimented me. I even got glomped for the first time! :)
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Katsumi Liquer from Silent Mobius and/or Sister Rosette Christopher from Chrno Crusade.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Momocon 2005, my first convention. It was the most exhilarating experience of my life. I was on a cosplay high for weeks afterwards!
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Not yet...maybe some day.
