Greetings my fellow NERDs. How the hell are ya? I hope this Labor Day was nice and nerdy. Most people know Labor Day as a holiday were most businesses take the day off to honor those in the work force. I am lucky to have one of those jobs, but in the end you end up being the lucky ones. Why? Because I love working in my world of NERDom when I am away from my real job. You can almost say that it is a Labor of Love that drives me to find interesting people to interview for you, our fans. Today is no different. Today I have an interview with a very talented cosplayer. She goes by the name Morgana Cosplay and she lives in Spain. I was first introduced to her amazing cosplays on the site deviantart. I instantly fell in love with some of her amazing cosplays, like her version of Elise from League of Legends. In fact, I loved her Elise cosplay so much, that one of her images as Elise is the wallpaper on my desktop right now. I could talk about how amazing and talented she is all day, but why should I do all the talking? Nerds and Nerdettes, my interview with the beautiful and amazing Morgana Cosplay.
SWN: Who are you and where are you from?
MC: Hi!! I’m Morgana, a cosplayer and body paint model, and I’m from Spain.
SWN: How did you discover cosplay?
MC: A friend told me about an event here in my city, he said that people there dress like the characters they love the most, and I said “I want to do it too!!” So I made my first cosplay: Morgana from League of Legends.
SWN: I really love your Elise cosplay from League of Legends. What made you choose her?
MC: When Elise was launched, I couldn’t stop staring at her at LoL launcher, sitting in her throne… telling her story… I looked at her and I thought… “Someday I will be you”
SWN: Which genre is your favorite to cosplay?
MC: I have no a favorite genre, I just make cosplays of the characters I like the most. Right now I’m playing League of Legends a lot, that’s why most of my cosplays are from that game, but I have a lot of projects, and many of them are not from LoL.
SWN: What genres have you cosplayed?
MC: Fighting games (like Street Fighter and Darkstalkers) manga/anime (like Elfen Lied) and League of Legends :D
SWN: Do you go to conventions to show off your cosplay or do you do photo shoots only?
MC: I go to all conventions I can. I love going conventions to meet old friends and meeting new people, to have fun goofing with all of them and to enjoy the event itself. But in the case of body paints I just do photo shoots.
SWN: Do you do other modeling besides cosplay?
MC: Yes, I usually do shoots dressed in normal clothes xD
SWN: I also noticed that you have cosplayed using body paint, which method of cosplay do you enjoy most?
MC: I enjoy cosplays the most. With cosplays I can go everywhere with everyone, but the body paints are used just to do shoots in the photo studio.
SWN: Where can my readers see more examples of your work?
MC: My own website: www.morganacosplay.com
Facebook: www.facebook.com/MorganaCosplaySpain
And DeviantArt: morganita86.deviantart.com/
SWN: If you had to pick one cosplay, which one is your favorite?
MC: My Elise cosplay. It’s the most I’ve worked in, and in my opinion it’s the most spectacular I’ve done until now.
Do yourself a favor and visit her websites she provided in the interview and enjoy the beautiful world of Morgana Cosplay. ~Derf
