COSPLAYER
How I started
Being a cosplayer is more than a hobby for me. It's a life-style. Each year, every new costume brings something new into my life.
It all started back in 2007. We started a new anime-club Artlab Wasabi and in 2008 we had our first Cosplay Convention. In 2010 I made my first international journey and immidiately won Grand prix. Cosplay opened possibilities of travelling (Japan, Germany) and meeting new people (photographers, convention leaders, craftsmen and outstanding foreign cosplayers.) Now it's growing into occupation. It's amazing to travel across 2 countries just for the sake of a great photoshoot! I love what I do and I take it seriously. I make my costumes and props. The process of making grew as important as stage performance for me, though THE SHOW is still the vital part of my cosplay. And I'm always open to new ideas!
