# About me

Future cosplayer and costume designer here - hopefully!
I have yet to develop my sewing skills beyond making a basic skirt and bag or fixing clothing, however, I do hope to develop these skills.

I've been an avid gamer since I was a child. My first console was a Nintendo 64 and owned a Gameboy too. I the graduated to PC games with my first being Tomb Raider II. My love for gaming grew from there but I never realized what a profound effect they would have on my life.

I have always wanted to dress up as my favorite game characters but have never known anyone else who shares my interest. With such a large cosplay community out there I have been inspired to pursue this urge fueled by my passion for video games, books, comics and movies/t.v.

Here are some of the cosplays on my "must-make" list:
- Young Lara Croft
- Classic Lara Croft
- Chell (Portal)
- Lucy Kuo (Infamous 2)
- Tifa Lockhart (FF VII)
- Maya (Borderlands 2)
- Femshep's Sexy N7 Dress (Mass Effect 3)
- Miranda Lawson White Suit (Mass Effect 2/3)
- Silk Spectre II (Watchmen comic book version)
- Snow White
- Princess Jasmine
- Daenerys Targaryen (Dothraki attire)
- Daenerys Targaryen (Qartheen gown)
- Melisandre (Game of Thrones)

As you can see, I have many planned... perhaps not all will be made as it'll be a matter of my sewing/crafting skills, finding the materials, and time, but I hope to be able to produce at least a couple of the listed costumes this year.

If you would like to follow my journey into the world of cosplay and experience this learning process with me, please follow me on facebook or the links provided for my twitter, facebook, cosplay.com, and tumblr.

No worries - I admire your attention to detail in the costumes you've made and its great to see a new cosplayer producing such work! I hope I can do the same. Oh yeh, you'll be hearing from me if I ever need help (I'm sure I will) with any costumes. Thanks!
