My friend and I dressed up as Lucas and Dawn (the protagonists of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl version) for a local con last weekend to celebrate the upcoming 20th anniversary of the games in September! 🎉 The last slide is our Team Rocket grunt look from last year.

still a work in progress, but this is already one of my favorite cosplays so far! In these photos I'm using armor pieces from dokidoki while I make my own version, and I also just got a better wig. The shuriken is 3D printed.

Sharing my Gojo Satoru cosplay, photo was taken by a friend @luckyma_photo and quick edit by myself at a small cosplay event organized by another friend

The wig were styled by @laxdaela_cosplay

On a small, local fantasy convention, a photography student asked to take some pics of my cospaly and it came out great! What do you guys think?

I didn't find a place to slide at the event, but I'll find one when I wear the cosplay again :).

My first time cosplaying her and my first cosplay with makeup on.

My 2nd cosplay and first competition.

It was a blast to walk around the Con and play magic and have people recognize the character.

Being in the competition (even though i had no chance of winning my category) was a really cool experience.

I learned alot from making this cosplay and will def do more in the future....probably magic related!

I added alot of skills when making this cosplay:

3D printing

Adhesives for props

Lots of sewing!

Priming/Painting

I want to learn how to model foam and clay better and paint with an air brush. Maybe on the next one!
