Ludmilla as Triss Merigold
Hello everybody! My name is Ludmilla and I live in the magnificent Hungary. I started cosplaying 11 years ago for fun and my first cosplay was Kagome from Inuyasha. I just bought some second hand clothes and modified them to look like the character’s clothes. It gave me so much joy so cosplay is moved into my heart really fast.With smaller – bigger breaks I countinued my cosplay journey. I tried almost every materials what I can use for cosplays and I started to try myself in competitions. From 2019 was the year when I decided I would like to do cosplays really seriously. My first serious competition cosplay was the Mandalorian Armorer with I learned more from EVA foam, what is still one of my number one armor making material. Year by year passed and I developed a lot of new skills like patternmaking, sewing, fabric paint, embroidery or – what was my demon – using worbla. The train doesn’t stop here, cause the last year I started to learn 3D modelling and 3D printing, what knowledges I actively use in my upcoming projects.Details are my jem. I love the rich detailed, fully decorated cosplays. I love to put every little thing in my cosplay what nobody will notice. One of my dream cosplay is a really amazing World of Warcraft cosplay what I can’t wait to start one day.

Vid Zdovec as Revenant
Apart from the shoes and the undersuit (which he only slightly modified), Vid made everything himself. The majority of the cosplay is 3D printed, and the parts made from fabrics are sewn by him. The 3D blueprints for the 3D printed components took him 220 hours, sanding and colouring took him 155 hours and sewing took him 54 hours. The designing and resizing of the armour parts started with making a prototype from pepakura so he could get the appropriate size and shape of all the pieces. For some parts, he even made plaster molds which he then scanned to his computer using photogrammetry. All the time combined, he spent 429 hours on this cosplay.

Mokko as Cinderella
I am Mokko from Austria, I started to make cosplays when I was 14. At first with the help of my mum, and later I was able to make cosplays by my own. Now I am 28 and half of my life is filled with cosplay, and I am really happy to say that I still love it!
Since 6 years I also do a lot charity work for children with my costumes! And since then, my cosplay closet changed from warriors and Anime to more and more princesses and became more and more sparkly! But I still love a good warrior cosplay .
What I like the most about cosplay is very easy to say, the smiling faces when someone looks at you and sees his/her favourite characters. I found out, that it does not matter how old we are, we are still as happy as the children I visit, when we see our beloved characters come to life, and this is the best part of cosplay for me!

Desdemona as Codex
Jelena is a huge fan of Halloween, makeup and playing dress up.
She has been cosplaying since 2014 when she competed as American McGee’s Alice at Reboot Infogamer and won 3rd place. Since then, she cosplayed (and occasionally won awards at local conventions) as BloodRayne, Maleficent, Hela, Galadriel, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Liv Moore, Abby Sciuto, Jessica Jones, Lydia Deetz, Codex…
She loves creating but her inner perfectionist is rarely completely satisfied with the end result.
