I love this shot of us! This is myself as Annie with as my Tibbers! As you can see, this thing is a monster. It stands at almost exactly 8ft tall! Both of our costumes are made by hand, from scratch, by us. Hope you all enjoy!photo by Aperture Ashley

Its my boyfriend and cosplay partner! The bear has a PVC pipe skeleton and is strapped to his back with an army Alice pack to help support it. He is standing on stilts made out of painting buckets as well to achieve that height! He's around 6'2" normally so the stilts really give it a boost!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! As broke college students, we try our best to do everything we can on the cheap haha Luckily, we live in Dallas where there is a great variety of wholesale businesses for fabric, casting materials, and LEDs. Our parents are also very supportive of our cosplay and help us whenever they can by buying us cosplay materials for birthdays/holidays! If I were to give an average, Id say anywhere from $75-$200 once everything is said and done. We always try and get the best materials we can afford for each costume we make.

We keep all of our costumes! You never know when you might want to wear them again! And all of our characters we cosplay are sentimental to us, so it would be so sad to throw them out. Anyone can be a great cosplayer! We all start somewhere friend. I started out not knowing a single thing about costuming, and just rolled with the punches and learned as I went. My favorite part of cosplaying is learning new techniques! We'll keep working super hard and doing our best! <3
