I said I was going to do another round, and here it is. Five wonderful costumers I find to be very awesome. I'm doing my best to google all the images I post and add their fan pages if they have them. If they don't, then I'll just post what I can... Enjoy!!

Tara is a truly wonderful person. I was only recently lucky enough to meet her, and boy am I glad. Somehow I had managed to miss her FANTASTIC costumes and incredibly creative ideas over the years. From her supremely inventive Dolly Deathstar to her beautifully mastered Red Riding Hood (so gory!) she nails it every time. After having met her wonderful parents, I know where she gets it, but she really brings the creativity to new and funnier levels. Every costume, handmade by her (occasionally helped by a friend or family member), is... there are no words. Stupendous, amazing, fantastic, they just don't do the trick. Her skill with costuming is beyond description. If that wasn't mind blowing enough, she's one of the sweetest and most amazing people I've ever met. I'm always excited over the chance to chill with her for even a few minutes.
If you want a taste of some of her other amazing costuming/creative skills, go check out her Etsy shop where you can actually OWN SOME OF HER SKILL YOURSELF. Mind blowing.

What's sexier than a costumer in tight white spandex? A costumer in tight white spandex who loves proper English. I've been privileged enough to see this girl every year for the past three years now. Unfortunately she lives too far away, but I get to stalk her online sometimes! She is wonderful at really feeling the character and getting into her persona. Better yet, every year she has new costumes! Fantastic, interesting and awesome costumes that I can't wait to discover! My favorite of her costumes is probably her Red Lantern Mera costume, it's very sexy and super shiny. Also... a little scary. Much love to this woman and her awesome costuming skills!

If you go to conventions, you've seen this girl. Rockin' some wonderful costumes. This Sydney Savage is only one of the super costumes she's done and every time she looks stunning! A Star Wars fan at the core, she has branched out into some very creative and difficult costumes, such as her WOW character done this year. The time and effort she puts into creating and sewing her costumes is evident in the end result. She's talented and she truly wants the character to be seen in these costumes. Aside from the movie/comic/video game characters she's already brought to life, she's also the face behind the Super Hero(ine) Deodorant Dame! Helping to keep the conventions smelling sweet and pleasant. We thank her for her efforts and talent!

Before I ever knew this spectacular woman, I was seeing her costumes and pictures of her costumes all over the conventions and internet. I was aghast at the way she managed to completely transform into these characters and how the costumes were always spot-on. At first I didn't even know it was the same woman, until I found the gold mine of a fan page for her costuming. Clicking through the photos I kept thinking "wait, that's her too?!" Every year she comes out with a plethora of stunning costumes that are so spectacularly well done I just want to applaud. Oddly enough, my favorite of her costumes is her Anita Blake (of the Laurell K. Hamilton novels) because she managed to perfectly embody a character that is difficult to pinpoint. Outside of my personal love for that character, she's also transformed herself into a gorgeous Poison Ivy, and a very tempting Catwoman. I await her next costume with baited breath.

Pictured here with one of my favorite geeks, Seth Green, is Sera. Another of my favorite geeks. This lovely model/costumer is one of my absolutely favorite Slave Leia's. If you've ever been to a convention website you know there are a LOT of these women, so that means a lot. She is adorable, sweet and a much stronger woman than I could even imagine. Or possibly describe here on a little blog. I've only seen a few of her costumes, but she does such a great job with every one that I'm positive I will love them all. My favorite is her new Lilah outfit from Jonah Hex. Watching from beginning to amazing result, she's done a great job and managed to really bring this costume to life. I haven't even seen the movie and I'm pretty sure... Sera looks better in this outfit. If, for some insane reason, you get bored drooling over her wonderful fan page, go check out her cause, Tracie's Tooth Fairy, and see the good she's doing.
If I haven't given you plenty of awesome things to check out, you're not paying attention. Go back and read again cause you're disappointing me. If you're too busy checking out those pages to read this, then you get a gold star (void where prohibited).
I've already got the list of lovely costumers for the next 5 planned, so I hope you're looking forward to more amazing costumes and hot ladies. Who wouldn't be?
Saying again now that I am back on here: You have picked some awesome ladies and present them beautifully!
