FEATURED TALENT: Countess Alyx Cosplay will be appearing at WasabiCon 2018!
Countess Alyx began cosplaying in 2009. The love for costuming began with her love of theater and performance. Her first cosplay was in 2009 as Namine from Kingdom Hearts II which was handmade and simple in design. She debuted it at Anime Festival Orlando. Alyx has always had a love of animation and in her early cosplay days many of her cosplays consisted of anime and cartoon characters. There’s something so fun about taking something drawn simply and interpreting every detail to the character’s personality and timeline. Alyx is also a huge fan of makeup artistry and looks to bring a new challenge to her cosplay wardrobe every year. Her first cosplay to use prosthesis was Steven Universe’s Pearl in 2016. Since exploring newer avenues in makeup through cosplay Alyx has taught several cosplay and SFX makeup classes for young cosplayers in the North Florida area. Alyx has been featured in several cosplay magazines as well as a calendars and is an award winning cosplayer in the state of Florida
