Who are you going to cosplay as next?
High priestess of prophecy from yugioh. Only my second cosplay as a girl.
Do you regularly go to like anime conventions?
Egh.. I went to my first one when I was 15.. and I went twice a year for 3 years. Then I stopped and went once in the summer while in university (4 years.) A year after I graduated I decided to get back into cosplay and made my lightning outfit and attended London MCM expo. I've been to that one and the one in October since. I plan on going to this upcoming october one too.
Where do you usually go to get all of the pieces for your costumes?
I improvise. I'll use items I find around the house, or stuff you can get from the dollar store too. Sometimes I need to buy online. For example, the EVA foam I used for my last project, I could find at the dollar store (9 reg sheets for £1.) But I needed foam slightly longer to make it a bit easier so I bought some off ebay. I've learned to improv quite a few things.. learned to dye wigs.. learned to make my own dressform out of duct-tape. I'm still trying to brainstorm how I will make that book glow for this upcoming costume since I want something a bit stronger than glow-sticks. Also to make that hat-peice actually stay on.. Hmm.. but for the glowy-balls I have decided to use fillable christmas ornaments that you can split in half! It's quite perfect actually!
When & how did you get into cosplaying?
Started in the summer before grade 10! My first cosplay was Sora from Kingdom Hearts (and it was horrible! I painted boots, I sewed a zipper on top of a tank-top and I made other stuff out of paper mache.. haha) But when I went to my first convention I was amazed at the costumes and it looked like fun! I also wanted to try getting into sewing so I decided to try it out!
Favorite food? Restaurant? Number? Drink?
Oh gosh.. difficult! Right now I crave some Korean shortribs right now. So delicious..
I also love a good stonebaked pizza, and tuna sushi is so yummy. I also love fried eel. Hmm.. hard to say, really.
Restaurant.. hmm.. AQUA in Bristol right now. They do some great food. Burger Joint in Bristol also makes a good burger. Korean BBQ in Toronto is great, too.
Don't have a fav number.
And for drink? I usually have water.. but if I treat myself.. it's either to a peroni, smirnoff ice (lime one), or aloe king: aloe vera juice.
