Hello and welcome!
Thank you for taking time to check out my work. I am Dei but I go by my cosplay handle/alias Dei CosArt.
Since 2007 I have made a variety of costumes. I have cosplayed/ made over 100 personal costumes within the 13 years I have been cosplaying.
I began making my own costumes around the end of 2008 by sewing my first costume from scratch, Sora from Kingdom Hearts, and fell in love with the craft. I have experience in sewing, armor/prop work, wig styling, and more.
Through cosplay I have had the pleasure of learning not only new skill but also participating in Fan films such as “Real Housewives of Nintendo” by Pelvic Gaming and “Thor: God of Thunder “by Lee Thongkham. I’ve also been a costume judge at conventions such as Mizucon (2015) and Metrocon (2016), along with many other wonderful opportunities. However, I continue to cosplay for the love of the craft. Cosplaying is a passion of mine and way to be myself and meet new people.
Below is a list of my awards, achievements and projects I have been apart of or received. In 2010 I entered my first costume contest as a beginner and did not enter another contest until early 2017. Slowly I plan to enter more and more and build up my my credibility as a costume maker with certification from any awards I may receive.
