Hi, I'm Rare Props! I've been cosplaying since 2006. It all started when I wanted to be a Final Fantasy character for Halloween, and spiraled into the beloved art it is now when my boyfriend took me to my first anime convention. As you may have guessed from my name I specialize in props. If a costume has something big and outrageous to carry along with it I am all over it. My favorite part of any cosplay has always been building the props. This art form has been a positive force in my life and I would love to pass that along to others.
Howdy y'all, I'm Angi Viper! I've been cosplaying since 2000 and making my own costumes since 2011. My specialty is sewing, but I strive to learn as many varied skills as I can. My broad skillset has led to notable competition wins at WonderCon and ComicConLA. I'm experienced in everything from sewing to patterning to foam fabrication, worbla smithing, prop making, wing fabrication, wig styling, makeup, posing, performance and electronics.
