So, we started to work on our cosplay like one month before, we had almost all the materials and the sewing part was mostly quick to do, so i didnt stressed much, and because the rules just went online like 2months before...we had to delay the beginning.

I had the Costumes and the Skit planned for about 2years, so i invited manon-lightcrafts, explain my idea and she agreed to do this with me!
The worst part was the props...really, im not good at that, so was really difficult...im not satisfied yet!

But it was amazing, i had a lot of fun making this costumes, i had many friends at my house just to see our stuff and help with something, like Miminhoo, he had to open an bottle of expansive foam with a nail XD i have videos of that! was funny
A dear friend of mine, Milton helped us with the choreography, he danced for many year, i have to thank you sooo much for that!

Just some Wips, if you want to see more check out our facebook pages ^-^

So me and manon-lightcrafts we live near the capital, we had to travel to the north of Portugal for this, we staid in a gorgeous hotel the same as, Iberanime Staff, APC and lovely Calssara (Cosplay Guest <3) and of course we had a lot of fun there...well we kinda know everybody XD
My Father was really kind and gave us a ride :3 the car was FULL!!! Thank you daddy!
I have a lot of videos i want to make a short documentary or something with that, we want to show the process of this 1º WCS experience

The experience was fantastic! everybody should try, but you have to stay strong, because you will have stress, sometimes things dont work....or just because you have afraid of the stage, let me tell you a secret, i never felt on stage....but this time...yap...happened to me, i just continued the skit and YOLO, its an Hobby but in this case you have to take it kinda serious, you want to show to the other countries that Portugal is good at this! And that we want WCS next year!!! Me and manon-lightcrafts we will try to do our best there, for you and for us, everybody should have the chance to go to Japan and represent our country!

We can not win, Portugal is just an observer country next year, but we will have a chance to go on stage and we will try our best!
