@littlejohn22 I completely agree as well. I spent 2 years and literally hundreds of dollars creating my Gwenpool cosplay, I sewed my Captain Marvel cosplay 100% by hand, no sewing machine at all, etc, etc. I've never just got a t-shirt or some simple crap and threw it together and called it cosplay. I would call that "casual" or "everyday" cosplay, but not cosplay proper. Even this weekend at Denver Comic Con, there were so many "lazy cosplays", and our little community of comic nerds/cosplayers, etc is literally falling apart over one guy who wants to be "king of the empire", as well as these "lazy" and/or "pandering for attention" cosplays are ruining the fun for us all. I wish so hard that I could shoot a cosplay set in the not too distant future. I'm a little bummed because this situation is discouraging me from wanting to even try a shoot. I'm so tired of seeing the same girls over and over and over again as "cosplay set of the day". Like give someone else an effing chance, you know? I wish these girls would just show some compassion for other models/cosplayers and chill out on stacking the MR queue. This is exactly why it is so long. Girls are just tagging everything as "cosplay" hoping it'll get picked up, even when there's nothing resembling cosplay in it. I feel like the drama and the "bad" girl on bed in a t-shirt of some fucking "fandom" or in some location that makes no sense for the cosplay. It's almost the new "butterfly ass" crazy crap.

I sense the passion you put into your work, as aposed to some other models that put little effort into their work. What you do is art and sometime people will not understand or "get" what you do, but you do it for your love of it. I, for one, can hardly wait to see your next set. You are one of the reasons I joined SG
