One of my Fav memories and awards was this image by JasonLaboy, when we met at the ATT discovery district in Dallas, TX. This image won one of the prizes for Cosplay for DC Fandome 2021. This was the WW outfit that I made, including cloak, spear, and Steppenwolf’s head. Pre-release of the Snydercut

I made my first version of my Gal Wonder Woman in 2017 for Halloween. It was a corset with vinyl glued on (mostly hot glue), and I knew very little about what I was doing. I just made it up as I went along. I look back now and know it was a good start. I didn’t know about cosplay at the time.

More Carol! My first big cosplay build was a fabric and foam version of the movie suit. The base suit I learned how to sew and to work with foam for a vest, shoulders, bracers, boots, and the helmet. I sold that one when I lost about 30lbs. Then I commissioned the one on the right from TeamKyonlee.

More Captain Marvel! The feature movie has a few casual outfits, here are the ones I’ve done. I made the T-shirt with a stencil and paint (actually plastidip, I didn’t have paint 🫣) and the flight suit is purchased with custom patches.
