cosplaygirl03

I'm a sophomore in college, and I'm studying Interactive Media Design (Website design).

I became interested in cosplaying back in 2000 when I came across Otakon 00. I was so interested in all of the awesome and elaborate costumes, that I became inquisitive on what was going on and what it was about. It took me till 2002 to actually get started on my first cosplay (Android 18). By 2003, I started cosplaying from the series Hellsing as young Integral Hellsing, and since then, I guess that's when my cosplay closet grew from 2 costumes to *counts fingers* I can't remeber *lol*. But! I've been striving to prefect my costumes as well as try my hand at cosplaying from other anime/manga series, as well as having fun and meeting new friends.

What got you into cosplay?
When I went to Otakon for the first time. There were so many cosplayers walking around, it inspired me to want to do the same thing...besides, it seemed like fun.
What was your first costume and why?
My first costume was Android 18 from Dragon Ball Z; it was one of the easiest costumes to make at such short notice.
What is your favorite costume and why?
Ooh good question. Out of all of the costumes I have, my favorite costume at the moment would be my Blood Seras costume. It took me a good while to plan, and put together. I'm very proud of the outcome.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
I don't have a dream costume at the moment.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
I remember one year at Otakon, this girl got over excited because I was dressed up as Integral, she came up and just glomped me for no reason. It was akward, but it was great to know that my costume was recognized. *lol*
Do you participate in masquerades?
I participated in a One Piece Masq. at Katuscon 2008.
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Nope none yet
