(cos)WED: Uncanny Megan
Written by Riri (@lillyums)
This week's Cosplay Wednesday features Uncanny Megan from North Carolina! Her Starfire cosplay is adorable. Starfire is one of the 5 members of Teen Titans; she is a beautiful, cheerful alien. She is also insecure and naive, but is incredibly perceptive and smart. She values friendship more than anything and wishes for everyone to get along. She is such a cute character, why wouldn't you cosplay her?? Check out how Uncanny Megan did it!

1. How long have you been cosplaying?
Since 2008
2. Why did you choose to cosplay this character?
I've been wanting to be this version of Starfire for a long time, but she was one of those characters I was taking my time with, just waiting until I knew my skills would be up to par.
3. How long did it take you to complete?
One day
4. Any difficulties when constructing the costume?
I decided I wanted to make her boots myself and quickly hated myself for it. It probably would have been easier to just cover a pair of shoes instead of make some, but they look good, so it worked out.
5. What do you love most about cosplaying this character?
I love characters that are full of energy. It makes interacting with people and posing for photos much easier for me.
6. Where did you debut this costume? If you haven't... where do you plan to debut?
I'm not sure yet! I'm really bad about making things with no specific convention or event in mind. She'll hit the show for eventually! I can't wait.
7. What's next? Cosplay related of course...
Who knows! I usually just get and idea and start sewing. I think my next to set in stone projects are Akko from Little Witch Acadamia and Ichigo from Tokyo Mew Mew.
Awesome job! You might not have debuted it yet but we're happy to have featured it here! For anybody else interested, she made a tutorial on how she made Starfire HERE.
