The only time when the peace sign is appropriate…. First look at my newest costume, Art Nouveau style Chun Li! Designed by http://razvan-sedekiah.deviantart.com/art/Art-Nouveau-Chun-Li-135664954, costume created & modeled by me! Photo by Bill Hinsee, taken at Fanime.
Cosplay collage of nearly every costume I’ve made and worn in the past 12 some years. A lot of great memories and a long fulfilling journey this has been so far. Feel free to click through to my Deviantart for more thoughts on cosplaying.

Retro Space Girl Yaya - original design & concept, costume executed by me, with photography & post processing by Benny Lee of EmanonDesign. I’m about ready to make a 3rd version of this outfit… :)
Model: Yaya Han
So I ran a zombie infested Obstacle course this morning. This is at the “Decontamination” station afterward, where I could rinse off the worst of the mud. My skin was dyed a shiny orange color lol. GA mud at it’s best. I’ll post a review of the run in a few!
My new costume debuted at Katsucon! Another outfit of the Wizard from Granado Espada. I spent over 60 hours on this ensemble, and used the most expensive fabric in my cosplay experience so far. I utilized a variety of techniques, from embroidering to making a hoop skirt to appliqués to sculpting, molding & casting. Also made a hat based in Wonderflex lol. More photos on my Deviantart!
My very best attempt at a Disney Princess smile.
I’ve been waiting on more photos of Mulan from a fairly recent photoshoot, but got antsy, so have some more Mulan from the Consplayers studio shoot a few years ago! The portrait on the right is a never before released shot (I don’t know why)! You can see my flower hair comb and accessories pretty well in that one.

Sculpting progress on my next costume from last night. I chopped off my long pretty nails to be able to sculpt away! When I’m done, I will cast these in dyed rubber with fabric backing and adhere them to my outfit. More info &pics coming this week!
