Guild Wars 2

Hey Everyone!

For the longest time, I had wanted to make a cosplay, but never knew what to do. Earlier this January, myself and one of my best friends decided to take on the challenge of recreating the Avatar of Grenth from Guild Wars: Nightfall. We had our first showing at Gen Con in Indianapolis and had our second showing at Geek Kon in Madison, Wisconsin. To our surprise, we won our category at Gen Con, as well as 2 judges choice awards, and we won the Best Journeyman Cosplay at Geek Kon.

Now we can only compete at a professional level at future contests, which is both an honor and intimidating, considering this is our first cosplay. Below are some photos of what we were working off of, the costume, and the awards.
