I actually do this weekly weekly so
every week I’m at a different con these
creative individuals bring our favorite
characters into the real world you’re
not only going to do pattern making and
sewing you may have to know painting
techniques to know molding technique
sculpting techniques don’t be afraid to
try techniques that come from other
domains welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 famous cosplayers for this
list we’re taking a look at cosplay
idols that are well-known for dressing
as fictional characters at various
conventions number 10
Myrtle serosa red hair purple cut out
costume at thigh high boots while she
began her cosplaying career at the age
of 14 when she won multiple awards in
her native country of the Philippines
Myrtle cirrhosis career didn’t explode
immediately it wasn’t until after her
win on the Pinoy Big Brother teen
edition for competition and she began to
take on the cosplay world on an
international level since then serosa
has moved from just cosplaying to
helping others with their own cosplays
by becoming the judge of I cosplay the
first cosplay competition in the
Philippines not yet convinced of her
cosplay cred she also is the official
anime jockey for hero TV a Filipino
network that hosts Filipino dubbed
Japanese anime okay guys I hope you guys
learned a lot from our very special
guest sorry little boy because I did and
I really had fun and now and look
anything like a dog
number 9 Maki cloud Bhavani it took me
like one full week of
– typing – do these gloves in order to
be taken seriously as a cosplayer you
need to design your own costumes costume
and fashion designer turned model Maggie
Claud bulb on a storm down to the
cosplay scene in 2009 I was here last
year for Heroes of Newerth as well and
I’m travelling across Canada in the u.s.
to attend to France conventions I think
that this comic-con this year is really
big some might be quick to dismiss her
due to her somewhat Augmented
proportions but on top of designing her
own costumes she was also one of the
models to be featured in the cosplay for
a cause calendar which was put out to
raise money for the Japanese tsunami
relief effort and hey she’s perfect for
a true to the comics power girl
rendition so I’m just curious oh where
do you see yourself than in five years
oh my god I I hope that I will still be
doing costumes maybe it could be customs
for movies who knows number eight
Megan Murray with Megan Maria and I’m a
cosplayer but cosplay brought ten years
if we need some characters gender
swapped we ask our next entry working by
day as a community manager megan marie
is a gender swapping cosplay princess by
night marie is known for her female
renditions of iconic characters such as
batman adversary two-faced and Nintendo
mascot Mario but her ability isn’t
limited to just that field
she has also blown the minds of fans
with the likes of frozen’s Queen Elsa
and Shawn from Princess Mononoke there
is absolutely no limit to Megan Marie’s
ability I first was played her because I
thought it was a little bit of a simpler
costume to tackle at first because I
thought I could find found pieces rather
than sewing something but it turns out
it’s actually really difficult to pull
off a successful Lara with all all of
the you know custom holsters and all
that number seven Alodia Gosiengfiao and
forget the gloves if you can find an
exact parallel one and cut the finger
parts and we’re done woohoo with over a
decade of experience in the world of
cosplay our next entry is far from being
an amateur recognized as a cosplay icon
around the world Alodia Gosiengfiao has
made numerous appearances in magazines
commercials and
the comic-con documentary comic-con
episode for a fans hope cost-based the
whole deal what are some of the choices
on her roster that helped her nail such
success elodea can be found sporting
characters from Final Fantasy neon
genesis evangelion
and even GI Joe her success definitely
isn’t showing signs of slowing down
either as she is also now widely
considered one of the most influential
women in the Philippines for me cosplay
is a combination of my hobbies which is
art video games anime drawing makeup and
fashion so it’s like your body as the
canvas and anytime you can change to
whoever you wanna be
number 6 Linda Lee some of my best
friends from conventions oh very cool
yeah and connecting with people we
promised our next entry doesn’t bite
also known as vampy bit me Linda Lay’s
career started early she dove headfirst
into cosplay at the ripe age of 12 first
of all let’s go back to the start where
does the name van P beat me come from
where does that come from um the truth
is sadly I didn’t like the name in the
beginning they rose to popularity after
Japanese toy manufacturer Kotobukiya
featured her cosplay photos when she was
a teen she has since developed a cult
following and even launched her own
cosplay and geek chic clothing line
while vampy signature character is the
x-man Psylocke it has yet to grow old as
she has cosplayed as almost every
version of said character luckily some
people just don’t grow out of childhood
habits Linda here joining us on the
stage in the whole awesome x-men regalia
oh thank you I like cat number 5d pity
it’s time to acknowledge the fact that
the Internet can make people famous best
known as the Internet’s Deadpool D pity
is what happens when pure irreverence is
embodied by one crazy individual while
he’s kept his real identity anonymous D
pity has since pushed the popularity of
Deadpool to an all-time high making fans
go absolutely crazy for the character
he’s also secured a following like no
other with fans worldwide waiting for
his next convention antics video to be
released number four
Lisa Liu who I’m mad Moxxi from the
original Borderlands our fourth place
performer shows just how much exposure
an amateur can gain a newcomer to the
cosplay world
Lisa Rosenberg began parading in costume
in 2012 she made national headlines with
her cosplay of frozen’s Princess Anna
being mentioned by name by both Disney
and Time magazine as proof of the film’s
overwhelming popularity if you are
interested in her designs she is also
the purveyor of the Rarity’s boutique
etsy store where she makes and sells
custom designs you want a cosplay
success story you found it this is my
own original design everything was made
and designed by me where instead of her
finding her prints up on land she
instead becomes queen of the ocean
number three spiral cats
sometimes the only way you can make
cosplaying better is with a team
composed of South Korean cosplayers
Tasha doremi and Seoul the spiral cats
are a common sight at many conventions
stylized similarly to a k-pop group the
spiral cats instead recreate iconic
characters and images from various manga
and comics by far one of South Korea’s
most popular exports the spiral cats
work astonishes cosplay fans around the
world what a recreation of your favorite
anime spiral cats have you covered
number two Yaya Han telling I went to
school for business so everything I’ve
done is very like I hope this works
our previous entries may be expert
cosplayers but our silver medal goes to
the expert who judges the experts
initially discovering cosplaying at
Anime Expo in 1999 Yaya Han has come a
long way from her roots a frequent judge
at cosplay competitions around the world
Han has even broken into the world of
television with frequent appearances on
king of the Nerds as well as being
featured on Syfy’s heroes of cosplay
while I’m trying to decide if I should
wear Baroness for Ottawa Han is also
considered a cosplaying pioneer for her
endless line of costumes if you need
inspiration for your next design you
don’t have to look very far my my
biggest tip for beginning cosplayers is
do your research take advantage of all
the resources out there talk to the
people that have made costumes before
you google how other people have made a
costume that you want to make right so
you can see what materials they use what
techniques they use and how it turned
out before we cosplay as our top pick
here are some honorable mentions
how do you feel about all that attention
I don’t know I’m pretty good at like
separating cosplay from my normal life
so it’s it’s just fun that’s just a way
to share what I do with people I do
other characters Laura crafts is
definitely my favorite one to be she’s
my favorite character of all time this
is one of the first variations I did it
for it’s the classic one but I’ve done
about seven different versions now I was
very shy awkward girl in high school and
I was getting into anime and I saw this
girl and she was like fun and outgoing
and sexy I think in my mind I was like
well I wonder what it’s like to be that
maybe I’ll make the costume for
Halloween and kind of get to experience
it
he said he’ll
equal to show you never an attack number
one Jessica Nigri is like the Super Bowl
of cosplay I like coming here it’s just
awesome move out of the way peons and
make way for the queen of cosplay
starting her cosplaying career in 2009
Jessica Nigri has repeatedly won award
after award and quickly gained Internet
stardom honestly I have to kill you now
cool probably the most controversial
cosplayer on our list as well
Nigri has been criticized for using her
curvaceous figure and skimpy outfits to
grab attention perhaps most notably for
her portrayal of Juliet Starling from
lollipop chainsaw don’t you just totally
hate it when your school clothes get so
nasty despite this or perhaps because of
it knee grease popularity has only
skyrocketed to the point that she was
hired by the likes of Ubisoft and
katakana games as an official
spokesperson sometimes being risque pays
off it’s almost better if you do the
cosplay promotion because you really
like I don’t know you really step into
the shoes of that character and you
really have to kind of pay attention
what you say you’re going to make sure
you’re representing it company well and
you’ve got to like really like sell it
to the bed do you agree with our list
