She cosplayed as Orochi, Himiko, SSX, Hideyoshi, and now Zhang He. Also Final Fantasy as well. I hope she doesn't mind that I post this link. It's to her cosplay.com profile http://www.cosplay.com/member/17919/

My lip gloss is cool, my lip gloss be poppin' Posts: 2,297 Group: Global Moderators Member #9,417 Joined: August 28, 2007 Gender Female	Wow, Sands, I must say, you look... almost completely different from one cosplay to the next! You do such an amazing job of taking on some of the character's identity... Honestly, if someone where to show me images of your Orochi, Hideyoshi, and Zhang He cosplays... I don't think I would have guessed they were all the same person, aka YOU! I don't think that's something every cosplayer can pull off...

I think I manage to look so different in those 3 costumes as I either have facial hair or blue body paint all over me haha. I love doing more obscure and interesting costumes. Have to mention that it wouldnt be as much fun if I didnt have my wifey Kaka to be my beautiful cosplay partner hehe =]

I, personally, don't get the thing with cosplay, not for me. But blimey, I gotta give it to this gal, she does her stuff so well, and she makes a very, very good Zhang He, she even does him better than he does, if that makes any sense . But yeah, she's great, talent is definately going on here .

Sergeant Posts: 17 Group: Members Member #19,180 Joined: October 20, 2008 Gender Female	daaaamn thanks for all the nice comments guys. Really sweet of you all! @Andreas - haha thanks, I've been told I should dye my hair black since I did Zhang @Ishida - Awww thank you, Jenovas definatly my favourite non-KOEI cosplay @Burning - Thank you, that comment actually means a lot to me. I think a lot of people look at cosplay as this nerdy freak show. But it means something different to every person. Im pursueing a career in costume for film and theatre, so for me costume is just a way of life. By cosplaying I can re-create costumes of characters I may admire or appreciate the design of, and also have the chance to meet some amazing people along the way. Thanks again everyone =]

The Great Master Tempest Posts: 592 Group: Members Member #20,086 Joined: December 22, 2008 Gender Male	I see why you prefer to dress like male characters when you dress like a female character your super hot! your himiko custom looked great and your jenova custom was breathtaking If you were to wear your jenova custom to a cosplay all the guys would've been on you. (I know I would've ) Everyone got something they're good at and you seem to have found your calling. (The next time you wanna dress up like jenova call me )
	Time wait for no one but people always seem to waste time. Wasting time is something we all do so we should be careful how we waste it. ~Comment made by The Great Master Tempest himself~ Thanks you Shadow for this excellent sign. It's a really nice present to come from a very evil member

Wow, that makes perfect sense to me . I don't think it's a freak show, maybe just a lil nerdy depending how you do it hehe. Still though, at the end of the day, you don't make it nerdy at all. I hope everything goes well for you and get where you want be in the future . Edited by Burning Devil Scholar, May 29 2009, 08:02 PM.

Behold the spear of Baby Dragon! Posts: 6,806 Group: Admins Member #3,636 Joined: October 5, 2006 Gender Male	I've been around Laura and the other cosplayers a few times now. At first you'd find it a bit strange going to an expodition the first time. First few moments do feel strange, but the cosplayers are excellent at making their costumes through experience, and are friendly. They are very confident and from what seems to others, fearless people. They just love what they do. Edited by LittleDragonZ, May 29 2009, 09:00 PM.
