Well, well, well, Nerd of all ages I have finally reached a\u00a0milestone in my\u00a0Nerdom, if you will.\u00a0 \u00a0 This makes the 100th cosplayer I have interviewed in my blogging career.\u00a0 I know I usually post my cosplay interviews on Mondays, but I had to wait for the 2013 SDCC to be over so that I could get in touch with the special cosplayer that I had in mind for number 100.\u00a0 This young lady is by far the best Witchblade cosplayer I have ever seen.\u00a0 So sit back, relax, and enjoy my latest cosplay interview.\u00a0 Today’s focus is on the lovely and talented Jacqueline Goehner.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Who are you and where are you from? <\/strong><\/p>\n

My name is Jacqueline Goehner and I’m from San Francisco, CA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. How did you discover cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I discovered cosplay back in 2005 when I went to my first convention at Ani-Magic in Lancaster, CA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. You are the best Witchblade cosplayer there is! What drew you to that character? <\/strong><\/p>\n

When I was a kid, there weren’t very many strong female characters that I could relate to. Sara Pezzini, a NY cop who’s not only beautiful and the hero of the story, but is also strong willed and doesn’t seem to take crap from anyone. I had plenty of feminine, beautiful influences to spare, but rarely a woman of strength.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Have you ever cosplayed any other comic characters? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have; I cosplayed Catwoman (Tim Burton’s Batman Returns), and Gwen Stacy from Spiderman. I am almost done with my Wonder Woman cosplay and I hope to have Phoenix done before the year is out. I’m also working on a new MAJOR project; the cosplay is a Top Cow character, but unlike Witchblade, it’s going to take a lot longer than 3 days to make!<\/strong><\/p>\n

5. Are you planning on any modifications to your Witchblade cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Nope, but I have made 2 new Witchblade costumes since WonderCon 2013. I am planning on at least one more that’ll be more covered :D<\/strong><\/p>\n

6. Do you go to conventions to show off your cosplay or do you do photo shoots only?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

I do both! It’s a lot of fun showing off new costumes, more so when you meet fellow fans that are just as giddy as you are about the series!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a07. Do you do other modeling besides cosplay? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Eh, not really. Don’t get me wrong, modeling can be fun, but it’s just not my thing. I grew up with acting throughout my life and that’s something I’m MUCH more satisfied with.<\/strong><\/p>\n

8. What are your plans for the future? <\/strong><\/p>\n

DYING!!! LOL Actually, getting more into costume designing for films, since I already do it for the theatre. I’m still going to attend more conventions and wear more costumes, that’s not gonna die anytime soon ;)<\/strong><\/p>\n

9. Where can my readers see more examples of your work? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Mostly on my Facebook fan page at www.facebook.com\/HappyGoJackie<\/a>, I also have a deviantart under theprincesszelda.deviantart.com<\/a>\u00a0and my Etsy store under TheLadyJacqueline.<\/strong><\/p>\n

10. Since you are such a huge Witchblade fan, what is your favorite story arc starring Sara? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Probably War of the Witchblades. You’ve got the classic super hero beginnings formula; two best friends that become enemies with a huge fight scene at the end. It’s a classic tale and is normally beaten out with many clich\u00e9s, but Ron Marz did a great job keeping it suspenseful!<\/strong><\/p>\n
