​🎭 Ready to bring your cosplay to life? 🎭

 

Cosplayers of ALL skill levels are invited to participate in our exciting cosplay contest, taking place during the October POTIONS & PIXELS Game Industry Gathering! Whether you’re a seasoned cosplayer or just getting started, this is your chance to shine, show off your costume, and compete for cash prizes. Get ready to flex your creative muscles, and wow the judges by bringing your character to life. Come join us for an unforgettable night of fun, community, and cosplay magic!

 

Costumes will be judged evenly on three criteria:

• Character Realization: How well the costume captures the essence of the character, whether an original creation or an existing character.

• Craftsmanship: The quality of build, technique, complexity, and creativity in constructing the costume.

• Showmanship: How the contestant embodies the character through movement, performance, and engagement with the audience.
