--About Cosplay--
The definition of cosplay can be quite varied. To us, it is a wildly fun excuse to dress as a favorite character (or in a favorite design) from anime, manga, videogames, J-pop/rock, comics, movies, fairy tales, or even original art. In short, cosplay is a very artistic outlet that stretches the mind to figure out how to bring a two dimensional character design into reality. Typical costume construction can involve prop making, wig styling, wing making, sewing, embroidery, makeup artistry, beading, resin casting, jewelry making, tailoring, and armor construction to name a few.

We do cosplay for a very simple reason: it's fun. We enjoy both the creation process and displaying the finished product at conventions or through photography. We've had the opportunity to meet many talented individuals through this little hobby and plan on making costumes for as long as we can!

--FAQS--

Do you sew all of your own costumes? Yes, unless specifically noted, all aspects of our costumes are made by us.

What do you do with the costumes after you make them? We wear them to conventions or save them for local events or photoshoots. If we ever decide to sell a costume we will announce it on our main page.

Will you sell me___ costume? No, sorry!

Do you accept commissions? No, we are too busy to even complete our own costumes, unfortunately.

How long have you been cosplaying? Since Fall '05, but avidly admired the hobby for years before that!

How did you make _____? If you email us about a specific aspect of a costume we will be happy to respond, however breif emails along the lines of "how did you make your Asuka plugsuit" will not be answered in depth. All of our costumes take countless hours and experimentation and cannot be summed up in a few sentences. We're very happy to share advice and don't believe in keeping cosplay secrets, but do try to be specific when asking questions as we're often pressed for time.
