CosCraft as a New Level of Individual Cosplay Competition

Judges will not look for how well you created your costume or how well your costume is done. Each of the judges is looking for someone who is willing to learn and can excel in cosplay.

CosCraft is basically an ordinary cosplay competition with a twist. This is the best opportunity for newbie cosplayers and those who want to learn more as this gives more chance to them rather than to established cosplayers who can make the costumes on their own.

If you are selected as one of the 4 CosCraft Finalist, you will partner with a judge and learn from them in order to compete in the finals.
