Devstalk? Nandatou?
Well, I'm proud to know you as a friend, downright kickass cosplayer (who wows great cosplayers here in Singapore) and as a fellow Christian...
Believe me when I say that you have inspired me to be the best artist I can be in my niche art... Man, I suck at drawing!

Aaah Daniel, I didn't realise it was you! My apologies! ; I'm trying desperately to get my messagecentre out of control... I took a 6-week hiatus after manifest and still haven't managed to work it all off! Heyo Mr Singapore! XD

Message Centre out of control :LMAO:
Indeed.
"Mr Singapore"? LOL Nice.
LOL. So how come you didn't realise who I was until now?
Oh and what's a Devstalk?

Seriously. I've been trying to wrangle it since October. No good.
I only just now realised who you were because of the devstalk, aka adding me to your watch list, which sent me a message to notify. When I thanked you, you mentioned my cosplay, indicating you knew me personally, hence I had to look at your page in more detail XD see, it all makes sense XD

I just find it funnie (extremely funnie, BTW) that someone would *WANT* to get their message centre *OUT* of instead of *UNDER* control.
Freudian-slip? Maybe, and an amusing one! LMAO
Ah! So that's what a devstalk is! Silly me!
And I'm serious about the cosplay. You do elicit "Wows" from some of the best here in Singapore...

Aaah I do want my message centre under control >_< I have a good dozen finished pieces to upload, but am afraid to T_T last time this happened I uploaded things to scraps instead so no one would comment XD bahaha.
I can't believe the cosplay thing o_O doesn't Singapore have some really amazing cosplayers? I was so disappointed that the Singapore Cosplay Club never made it to AVcon T_T

Oh and I was recently talking with a someone I met at a cosplay con last December. He (as well as everyone else I talk to) is in awe of what you do as a cosplayer!
If that's not great, what is? LOL

LOL Glad you noticed the Freudian Slip LOL
Oh and belive the cosplay thang! Yes, there are fantastic cosplayers here in Singapore. Interestingly, most of the crap ones would be considered half-decent in Australia (as in, the quality of the costumes is pretty well-made)...
Now, I know some pretty good cosplayers and they are all suitably impressed with your "record" @ Manifest, so that's why I say you're a "...downright kickass cosplayer (who wows great cosplayers here in Singapore)..."
But as to the group that missed out on AVCon, I might know of them. Just a little interesting factoid..... The thing is here in Singapore, the vast majority of *GREAT* cosplayers have their costumes *ENTIRELY* tailored. Stuff that would get you disqualified as a cosplayer in Australia or at least Manifest... And the cosplay is interestingly similar to the format described in Japan, where cosplayers gather *OUTSIDE* the venue for photos, then proceed inside for judging.....

Wow o_O I can't imagine wearing a costume I hadn't made myself o.o but I suppose the focus is slightly different in singapore (and japan)... where being a leading cosplayer is more about modelling and acting, rather than dorky hobbying and sewing XD well I'm Australia has a slightly different focus... because if I had to rely on my looks to do well in cosplay I wouldn't stand a chance XD bahahaa.

I can't really comment on the focus of cosplay here in Singapore (as I haven't been here long enough) or in Japan (as I haven't even *BEEN* there!), but what I can say is the fact tht tailored costumes tend to do really well...
For example, the winning cosplayers were 2 sisters crossplaying Yazoo & Kadaj from Final Fantasy Advent Children, with incredibly well-made tailored costumes. Their weapon props were, however, another story...
Now, contrast this with another pair of crossplayers that had downright jaw-dropping, elaborately-tailored costumes (think Royal Wedding Couple), who didn't win, but were highly placed. But that's not to say tailored costumes always win. I know some people that have won with "dorky hobbying and sewing"...
Honourable mention (he won a wireless keyboard and somethang else...) went to a mecha-cosplayer, incredibly well-made, obviously home-brewed, but fragile... He tripped and wrecked 1 of the mecha's legs.....
The thing is, *EVERYONE* votes for your cosplay and you get called up onstage if you've racked up enough votes. Thing is, people can only vote a set number of times..... but as far as cosplay portrayals and ostuming goes, believe me when I say that you and Asham would *ROCK!!!*
I mean, Asham does better Ash/Satoshi cosplay tan most guys!

I normally reside in Melbourne, but I'm forced to be here in this hellhole they call Singapore. Maybe not so bad, but I *REALLY HATE* the weather and... Oh. I better not say what else I hate about it here... But I'll be back in The Merry Land of OZ soon, within a couple of years or so, this time *PERMANANTLY* or at very least long-term.....

Nani?
Most people around the world would consider The Gold Coast as a great place in OZ to live... Interesting.....
But then again, most Australians say Singapore is a fantastic place, I guess you gotta live there to know what you like!
Oh I'm stuck here in Singapore because of some loophole Government obligations. I have to serve in the Singapore Armed Forces just because my Dad is a citizen here...
