What got you into cosplay?
The opportunity of being that character for one day, and being recognized as that, was one of the reasons. Plus, I love handmade things... so, making my own cosplays is purely fun for me!
What was your first costume and why?
Costume? It was Morgana, from a school theatre play ^^ Besides the black dress, broom, cat, candles and herbs, I made my own cauldron - me and my dog could be put inside of it and stay confortably! My 1st cosplay was Shampoo, from Ranma 1/2. Just because I had that similar dress...
What is your favorite costume and why?
For now, it's Hatoko Kobayashi- Angelic Layer. It's not that elaborated-thing, but making my own Suzuka was very funny! (and defiantly!)
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
A lot! Some of them I've already made - Hikaru, from Rayearth and Yuko - from XXXHolic. But the list grows every manga I read, every convention I go ^^
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Being recognized. I pretend I can live without it, but I true love being recognized in a cosplay; people calling you by the character´s name, congratulating you for some difficult acessory or very-simmilar-clothes, and taking photos... specially children. I love it!^^
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Some... I enter contests, but not always win them ^^ My piece of fun is in just entering them, not winning properly!
Tell us a little about yourself
Well... I´m a student, love animals, like handcraft things a lot (origami, paintings, sewing, Tricot... no matter which of them, I love!). I like reading, drawing, taking photos; and also like reading Tarot cards ^^
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
I may add some things to this gallery in time... for now, I'm still learning how to put photos here ^^
My favorite movies(s)
Too many to be on a list ^^
My favorite actors/actresses
Famke Janssen, course!
