A Little About Me

My first love was Sailor Moon when I was a child, I watched the show every day which started my infatuation with japanese animation. I've loved the idea of cosplay since I was in elementary school but never got the chance to participate until I was in high school, where I tried my hand at closet cosplays. Every year I challenged myself to do more and more and it's amazing how far I've come. I hope to continue to cosplay and inspire others to join in the love of cosplay. I appreciate everyone who helped me learn new crafts and helped me become who I am today. Thank you for voting. I love you all.

Description: I made everything on the costume myself. The eyes are contacts (all-over red) and the teeth made by hand. I tried to stay as true to her robotic look as possible. The horns are textured and modeled after actual ram horns for a realistic look.

Description: I made a plastic cage that is open in the front that the dress sits on. I made a replica grief seed out of sculpey and put on latex prosthetics. The costume is supposed to be a representation of what Madoka would look like if she turned into a witch. Everything on the costume was made by me.
