Our appearance and presentation of Hall Costume Awards at Fanime 2001, does not suggest or imply an association with or endorsement by Fanime. We did it simply to have fun and to honor those who have, in our opinion, excelled at cosplay. In our eyes, everybody is 1 st Place. Our choice of winners was entirely subjective, based on our criteria at any given moment. We obtain verbal consent from all photographed costumers.
Verbal consent is obtained before any visual or physical inspection of their costume begins.
This process is completed by obtaining the costumer's name, costume title and fan name they want posted on our site. The enormous hat first caught our eyes. He fabricated the costume from a variety of materials, including wire, felt and recycled hockey gloves. Young Wang was able to overcome the challenge of recreating a very short-legged character, by exaggerating the costume to appropriately fit his tall and lanky stature. For the well-crafted and flattering Kei costume.
