The Summer Age: Representing Cosplay
It happened again and I couldn’t believe how lucky and fortunate I was! This time I felt so much more prepared as I had a costume I truly felt proud of to show off 🙂 (I was Xiao Qiao from Dynasty Warriors 6) I was recently interviewed and did a photo shoot for a small article on cosplay for The Summer Age (a Melbourne newspaper). After the interview I did for The Age last time, I didn’t think an opportunity like this would come around again so I was absolutely thrilled when it did.
My article was finally published last Saturday and I wanted to share some scans with my readers, especially those who don’t live in Melbourne and were keen to read the article. Be warned, they misspelt my name 🙁 Which seems to happen a lot! Always Celine, not Celina~
Click the image above for a much larger version that should be readable 🙂
I even got them to mention Fables in the article 😀 Which I’m extremely happy about since I’ve found it is pretty hard to get any sort of blog publicity in print (even if it’s only a tiny mention hehe). I will be posting about the behind the scenes shoot for this article next week 🙂
Again Congrats! This is absolutely fantastic news for you and here’s many cheers to many, many more media coverage to come! 🙂
Thanks so much Nadia!! Yes, even though the article was for cosplay, exposure for bloggers is awesome!
congrats! it looks like fun! i wish there’s an online version because it’s a bit hard to read. 🙁
Aww, sorry I couldn’t take clearer photos 🙁 I wish they did publish something online for others to read 🙁
Wow! Congratulations! The costume looks awesome, I especially love the huge fans. Also, the colour of that wig really suits you.
Thank you so much! Painting those fans was so so messy XD But I loved every step of it~ I wish I could dye my hair this colour without damaging it!! How I wish I was born with lighter colour hair so I could play with it more, I adore your hair colour!
That’s awesome and well-deserved, congrats! The costume is gorgeous!
Thank you so much Gio, that’s so kind of you to say <3
Yayyyy!!
Congrats on this <3 ~!
It looks awesome and you should frame it hahaha or put it in a special book/box or something !
Yay! Thank you =D Hehe I’m collecting all the articles I get featured in so if I ever have kids I can be all, “seee! mummy was young too!”
Ahh you look absolutely stunning in these photographs! How exciting~ 🙂 Your cosplays always impress me so much!
Thanks Catherine! 😀 I love your costumes too, they are always so clean and neat! *_*
Sorry for the late reply, congrats. I used love to go to Anime Convention here in the US and see people dressing up and portraying that certain character. I never had a chance or attempt to dress up because I’m just shy. Ha ha my 4 year old can help me fill in the dressing spot and she portray the character so well.
Thanks so much, I think your daughter would look amazing in a costume 😉 Plenty of children characters she can cosplay =D
