I have had the pleasure of being in the world of cosplay so long, that I really only have 3 dream builds left on my costume list. They are builds that I know will take collaborations with a few of my fellow artists, will take time, and a stupid amount of money to complete. Big […]
Red Sonja, the She Devil with a Sword. Who doesn’t want to try to embody the most beautiful and fearless woman in Hyrkania?! I’ve always had a love for Sonja. I just knew her chainmail bikini wasn’t my style. So when the Nicola Scott & Gail Simone redesigns appeared, I knew that THIS was the version of Sonja […]
I had hoped to shoot Silver Sable AND Baroness while at The Rogue V100′s facility. But due to time, I had to scrap wearing Baroness. Bryan Humphrey was nice enough to volunteer to work me in the next day during his shoot at the Goat Farm. It was 20 degrees, pitch black, and raining, but […]

DragonCon 2012 has come and gone…in the blink of an eye.

And like every recent year, I didn’t carry a camera to capture all […]
Another new costume.. Another fun shoot with BGZ Studios. This is the first time in my costuming life that I have planed a costume around a wig. I came across this exceptional purple wig and just had to find something fun, exciting, and hopefully dealing with pointy objects, to do with it. Ultimate Alliance 2 […]
When I first started seeing teaser art for Marvel’s ‘Age of X’ Legacy (aka Reaper or Rogue), I knew immediately I had to do the new design. Thanks to the amazing help of Clay Mann, we were able to make these costumes a reality. My wonderful partner Chris Burns allowed me to dress him as […]
