VI_Zexion
What got you into cosplay?
Honestly, I lived a rather sheltered life and had no idea what anime was until my friends dragged me into it. It was one of those random spur of the moment: 'you're coming or we'll maim you' sort of thing, but now I wouldn't trade cosplaying for the world.
What was your first costume and why?
First costume was Link from the Legend of Zelda at Collosalcon '05 or '06. (I can't remember which year exactly because I missed a few cons in a row). I made my own costume, sword and shield too. best prop out of cardboard and ducttape I ever made.
What is your favorite costume and why?
Probably Ashura from RG Veda. A lot of people don't recognize the character but my friends tell me I really suit him.
Other then that, hands down it's Zexion from Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
I honestly want to do Zuko from Avatar the Last Airbender. For american cartoon, the show kills x3 and not only that but the Blue Spirit's mask would be fun to make.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
meeting me aunts Roxas at Ohaiyo-Con xD :heart: she and her girl friend, who was cosplaying axel, went up to my friend who was playing Marluxia and stopped us and pulled off her gloves. Next thing we knew she shouted 'YOUR NOT GAY ENOUGH!' and she dragged us away to a table and painted Marly's nails pink, and mine blue. we're all good friends now, ans i found it a bit ironic that they both lived a city away from us xD it's cool how cons can bring people together. you know? x33
Do you participate in masquerades?
A few times, but I've never won anything.
What was your best masquerade experience?
me and my friends had a good stage masq. moment...
16 of us managed to pull together the full Organization XIII at Collosalcon of 2007, as well as a Ansem the Wise, Namine, and a Cid Highwind.
xD we were given the nickname 'the Organization of DOOM... plus Cid Highwind' on our walk on. the judges couldn't give us a prize though for our shear numbers, but they were impressed that we managed to drag everyone. the cry from the screaming fan girls was an award enough. x3
Tell us a little about yourself
I'm a poor college student, who has rather that of a blaze' life just like any norm of a teenager who bums around on the internet. Cosplaying, drawing, RPing, and playing video games are the best thing i do in life. i also do a tad bit of singing, and acting *shrugs*
I also take commissions for cosplay weapons now that I'm actually getting rather good at them.
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
i'm insane. does that count? >> <<

Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Matrix. Anything with a major kick ass action screen play and a soundtrack that was written by Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore xD lol
My favorite actors/actresses
i don't really have any. I go to movies for their plot lines, not necessarily their actors. i mean if you swoon at a guy every time he comes on the screen you're going to miss about 99.99999% of the shit that goes on in the actual movie!
