<\/figure>Asgardian Fraud<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I am a costume designer and a cosplayer from Poland. I started cosplaying around 2010 and from then on it has not only become my passion but also my future \u2013 where now I work on commission creating costumes for theatre and film productions. I\u2019ve been the Polish representative for EuroCosplay Championships twice, although for the past few years I\u2019ve been present in the community more as judge for the competitions, which allowed me to meet many amazing artists and travel to various countries \u2013 it\u2019s amazing how different each community is!<\/p>\n\n\n\n My passion and my career revolve around sewing but cosplay-wise I specialize in creature costumes and masks \u2013 I love to try out new techniques and materials every chance I get and with the creature costumes I don\u2019t think I will ever run out of new ideas to try out! I strongly believe that cosplay is an amazing creative outlet that revolutionizes the costume industry with the new inventions of techniques, pattern making and creative solutions to problems such difficult models bring so I\u2019m very excited to see all the amazing costumes at AniMatsuri! <\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AsgardianFraud\/<\/a> Loki photographed by MLC Foto<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Merry All-Nighter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m Merry All-Nighter, a Finnish cosplayer of over ten years and a passionate crafter. I specialize in crafting techniques, both in sewing, like embroidery and lacemaking, and in prop work from foams to 3D printing. This all sounds fancy but I think it\u2019s also important to remember that the hobby is all about having fun and enjoying what you\u2019re doing. My favourite things are learning about new materials and techniques, seeing people\u2019s costumes and how they made them. I also love theatre and inspiring performances, especially musicals are close to my heart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ve represented my country in Eurocosplay where I placed first, and at World Cosplay Summit where we received the Brother costume award. Both were amazing opportunities to meet other cosplayers from around the world. I\u2019ve also been judging different cosplay competitions for several years now, but still every time I too learn something new from the participants. In my everyday life, I\u2019m a graphic designer for a international design brand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m very excited to visit AniMatsuri again, as my last visit was a great experience with a warm and welcoming atmosphere and impressive cosplayers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Listen to Merry’s presentation about preparing for international competitions on Saturday!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/merryallnighter\/<\/a> Lightning photographed by Alexandriel Photography<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Zel COShorse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Zel is a cosplayer from Poland with over 15 years of experience in that wonderfully bizarre field. Made a ton of costumes, competed in a couple of international competitions and has judging and hosting events under his belt as well. Since his favourite part of cosplay is performing, his last couple of years have been dedicated to being a part of the crew that brings cosplay musicals to life. And he can\u2019t wait to see you again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ZelCoShorse<\/a> Roy Mustang photographed by @fotabanana, edited by @kairigraphy<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This year the AniMatsuri cosplay competition will be judged by a panel of professional international judges.
