Our Father of D&D has passed away. The greatest Dungeon Master to ever live, Gary Gygax has departed for the planes. I have made many friends and have many fond memories because of the work he did in creating Dungeons and Dragons. Thank you Gary for giving all of us the chance to become heroes. *bow* T_T

*Featured Cosplayer updated for the month of March.*

I started featuring my cosplay photography on DeviantART at the start of Janurary as another means of getting my work out to the public that enjoys cosplay and anime in general. I run my own website which gets a good number of visitors a month but it never hurts to spread out to different areas to make sure your getting as much exposure as possible. I did not know if there would be an audience for my work here but the 10k worth of unique visitors I've had since Janurary is proof that you are all there and responding and that helps to inspire me to do more work and increase my skills and artistic abilities. A big thank you to those of you that have favorited my works, watched me and comment on my work over the last two months.

Hopefully I will continue to be able to bring you the best in cosplay photography and get to meet more of you in person this year at various conventions in Texas and aboard. *bow* Arigato!

This month's featured cospalyer is Korovyev. I met this talented cosplayer at AnimeFest 2007 and have had the opportunity to work with her now on several shoots. She's the kind of cosplayer I love to work with because she takes direction well and is laid back and attentive. Her outfits that I've shot include one of the best Midna's (Legend of Zelda) that I've seen, the sexy Yoko Ritona from Gurren Lagen and the artsy Gankutsuou series's Haydee. She's an active member of the Tx Metroplex Cosplay Coalition in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. More of her work can be seen at Cosplay.com under the same name as the one listed here. Enjoy the photos below of her amazing cosplay!
