This is my second creature costume, finished in 2008, featuring my Pokémon character "Nero" the Aerodactyl. I tried entering him into my first cosplay contest and won a judge's award for craftsmanship, encouraging me to keep going in my costumery projects... and I certainly did so! The mask features a moving jaw and of course he has arm wings so I can flap around like an idiot wherever I go :3
