Happy Halloween readers and cosplayers! I am hosting a mini contest here on the site to celebrate this awesome holiday and to thank all of you who have liked my Facebook page and read this blog. The VFire Cosplay Facebook page has reached over 1,000 likes!! And I didn't notice until a few days ago!! The blog also has over 13,000 views as of this month as well! Thank you!
The Prize
Now to celebrate with a contest and a fabulous prize. Since the convention season has ended here in Utah it looks like everyone is planning out next year's cosplays. I would like to offer my assistance. When planning out a costume I usually create character builds with sketches. I will draw out the character from the front, back, sides and in different layers if their clothing requires it. Sometimes it is difficult to get a full turn around of a character and we spend time watching the anime or playing the game to get every detail. The prize for the contest will be one character build of the winner's choice. I will work with the winner in creating the sketch and getting the level of detail that they want.
The Requirements
The contest is open to anyone and anywhere. I look forward to seeing your Halloween Costumes!!! Please send me an e-mail with the following information. ( VFire.Props @ gmail.com) You can also fill out the contact form to the upper left and I will reply so you can attach a picture to your e-mail. Please put "Halloween Contest" in your subject line.

| Here is an example of a character build I did for Sheik. The sketch is not only a reference but shows how pieces can fit together. |
