Rerenga shares insights into their creative process and journey in the realm of cosplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What inspired you to start doing cosplay?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I went to a small Anime Convention in 2018 and seeing all the cosplayers there inspired me to give the hobby a try myself.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Has Cosplaying had any sort of impact on your life?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh, only that it has basically shaped my entire life since then \ud83d\ude09 It helped me find a creative platform, it made me build incredible friendships, it kickstarted my social media community, it made me learn so many new skills and it eventually became my full time job! As a cosplayer, you&#8217;re most of the time also a crafter, seamstress, model, makeup artist, social media manager and photographer all in one! I love that it combines so many aspects. You&#8217;re never gonna be bored!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Which cosplay has been your favorite to do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Karlach<\/strong> from <em><strong>Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3<\/strong><\/em> for sure, my most recent cosplay as of date. This costume was a perfect balance between challenging and doable! And very rewarding in the sense of happiness to have managed to pull it off, as well as how much love it received online &lt;3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"815\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-4-815x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-4-815x1024.png 815w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-4-239x300.png 239w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-4-768x965.png 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-4.png 1179w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 815px) 100vw, 815px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Baldur&#8217;s Gate and D&amp;D have a very big influence on your work, do you have any favorite memories or moments?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haha that&#8217;s true, I&#8217;d say about 90% of what I do is somewhat D&amp;D related (BG3, Critical Role, Original Characters etc.). One of my favorite moments was when I cosplayed an original character from one of the D&amp;D games I play privately and my Game Master from that game flew over to visit me. They dressed up as a character from my own character&#8217;s backstory so that we could do a shoot together! So amazing. Little else gives me as much joy as to cossplay own characters with mutuals!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It&#8217;s been sometime since you started cosplaying, do you have any favorite experiences?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Omg so many! Can&#8217;t think of a single one that stands out, but among my favorites are: Cosplaying together with my SO. Getting talked to at conventions because people recognize me and are happy to meet, makes my heart so incredibly full. Or speaking of convention encounters: Meeting friends who I haven&#8217;t seen in a while due to living in different countries! Apart from conventions, my favorite moments about crafting are always the very first try on of a freshly finished costume! Can&#8217;t begin to describe the excitement!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"821\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-2-821x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43851\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-2-821x1024.png 821w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-2-241x300.png 241w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-2-768x958.png 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-2.png 1179w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 821px) 100vw, 821px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>On Instagram, you&#8217;ve mentioned that you have recently completed Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3.

It&#8217;s honestly been a while since I was that invested in a game and story. It meets all the things that I love about a game and genre. Also, the love for detail, characters and things to explore? I adore it when you can just &#8220;disappear&#8221; in a game because there&#8217;s so much to find.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When you&#8217;re not working on your cosplay, what are some of your other hobbies<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mainly sporty ones, since cosplay covers all the creative needs already \ud83d\ude42 I go to the gym, practice HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) and run on a regular basis. I also love surfing and hiking! One non-sporty hobby of mine is &#8211; who would have thought &#8211; playing D&amp;D!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You&#8217;ve been working on your Dame Aylin cosplay, how is the progress coming along?
