I want to thank everyone that has taken the time to stop in and share with my experiences in cosplay. I have dressed in the costumes such as Bizarro to major DC characters. I enjoy running around in tights roleplaying as my favorite characters. There are a lot of people that also enjoy it and if you dont you should try it. For as long as I can remember halloween has always been my favorite holiday. So I kind of expanded on that and decided to go out to conventions and expos. I do dress up for movie premeirs and even different release dates.
I started as a kid loving super heroes. Many people may not consider these as one, but my favorites were always He-man and The Thundercats. That is where it all started. I got into The Transformers and further into more of the DC and Marvel line. I really grew an intrest due to moving so much with having a stepdad in the Marines. My release were my comics. I started to draw them and even make costumes. My first made costumes were the Nightcrawler, Robin, and the Penguin. I actually was 12 and my brothers wanted to make a home movie. So I dressed them up and we did our thing. I would still have the tape but I wasnt allowed to play with our video recorder so I kinda hid and lost the evidence.
Throughout college I became know as ISU Superman. Due to my love of Superman comics, and bodybuilding it kind of stuck with me. I was know as that guy on Halloween that was always dressed up. Learning to sew was probably the best thing that happened to me. Since I started to sew I havent bought a costume since. I see no point. I can make what I want and make it fit how I want, instead of buying a costume that has a universal fit.
Here I am going to share my different costumes and experiences. I hope you all enjoy.
