It ranges from people who tinkered around on
their old sewing machine at home to people who have fully involved electronics.
But at whatever level, beginner to professional, everybody has worked hard and
is proud of their artwork!
Somebody asked how you decide who or what you want
to be. I think the answer is that you pick what calls to you. Whatever you find
that has a little part of itself worked into who you are, and when you create
your vision, you end up putting yourself into your character. It's a full
circle of beauty and everyone is beautiful!
I am just one out of four of our group. I was
concerned that Maribel would be the least interested of us. Prior to coming she
showed no interest in costuming. The only costume we could talk her into wasn't
even picked out by her. Alex and I put it together, she was just going to
endure it. Her only prerequisite was that we didn't make her look stupid or
stand out. She sings a different tune now. I wish I could have captured the
look on her face when she saw a fully mechanical, musical Optimas Prime.
Halfway thru the day she was begging for us to create a costume for her to look
amazing and stand out. Ah what 24hours can do to a person.
DragonCon is great about bringing celebrities
and well known persons to this city but so far it's been worth coming just for
the Cosplay alone. If all I do all weekend long is party and watch Cosplayers
preform, it will have been money well spent. Seeing some of my favorite tv and
movie personalities is just icing on the cake!
