Choosing The Right Fabric

Tonight we are going through the fabric at the house trying to figure out what fabric we can use for cosplays we are panning.  That’s one of the hardest parts for me in planning out a cosplay.  I never really know what fabric to use for my costumes.  There are some things that I have learned throughout my time cosplaying.… Read more →

Cosplay Progress

We have spending a lot of time planning and working on our cosplays. Right now I have a great bit of my Sonya Blade cosplay done. I need the shorts and the sunglasses. As for the one Gumi I wanted to do, I am no farther one it. Toni has found fabric for a few of the costumes she wanted… Read more →

Anime USA

I know it is several months away, but I started to check out the Anime USA website to see what’s going on, who’s going to be there and so on and so forth.  I admit I got a little too excited to see a few voice actors voice characters in Star Wars: The Old Republic.  I am excited to see… Read more →

Cosplay Community

Something that I talked with Jim Gogal, President of PJCS, was the cosplay community that Tekko and other conventions offer.  I had asked Jim about regulating and maintaining the rules towards cosplays and props.  Jim’s was not too surprising.  He stated that the staff and security at Tekko do not need to regulate everything so much because the cosplayers themselves… Read more →

Its Morphing Time!!

Its not every day that you get to sit down and chat with one of the most prodominant childhood icon, let alone two.  I had the opportunity at Tekkoshocon to sit down with both Tony Oliver and David Feilding.  Both worked on The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers (Oliver co producer, Feilding the voice of Zordon).  It was a once in… Read more →
