I started Cosplay pretty much at the beggining of 2008. My very first was of Miaka Yuki from Fushigi Yugi which i entered into the Tokyopop recon in York and i've been complying ever since.
I'm now in my 5th year and i've definitely grown a lot thanks to all you lovely people. I'm now an aspiring film maker just coming out of film school and have a costume making business on the side. So let me know if you need any help.
