What got you into cosplay?
I went to AFO (forgot which one) with my two friends. And one of them was dressed up as Cammy from Street Fighter. It made me wonder why in the heck was she dressed up as a video game character. So once we got to the con, I was in shock to see so many cosplayers like that. To me, I thought that was the best thing whomever created anime conventions could have done. So after seeing my friend cosplay, I got into doing it.
What was your first costume and why?
My first costume was an original character. It was a samurai. The reason why I cosplayed as a samurai was beacuse I'm a HUGE fan of samurais, and I wanted to make a hakama and such. Plus, I was called "Demon Eyes Kyo"...I guess it was from me having short dark spiky hair, and looking like a samurai. That made my day. XD
What is your favorite costume and why?
My favorite costume would be Setsuka's 1st outfit from Soul Calibur 3. It has so much detail on the kimono. I love it so!! I would actually love to take the time and make that costume. Plus..the sandals she wear are so awesome! XD
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Yes I do. I have a character that I've created a month ago. She's this Japanese goddess with a long, beautiful kimono that's red. I can't describe how much detail would be on that. But hopefully some time soon that costume will be made.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
That would be in JaCon in 2003. I had done an created character and the costume had looked like a chinese dress. It was black, and I had some blue and black ribbons attached to my arms. My mom was supposed to have sewed my costume...but she didn't. So I ended up using safety pins to hem up the sides and to close my costume whenever I wear it. Once I got to the con, I got so many pics taken, they asked me how did I do my costume, WHERE did I get it. Then to know, that I was in a magazine. That was one of my best cosplay times ever!
Do you participate in masquerades?
I would like to.
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
None as of yet.
