You seem like a very unique person, you don't look like A Westerner either. First time I looked in your gallery I thought you were from some part of Estonia because of your pale complexion or Slovakia, and a bit of Celtic. But then your hair would probably be red, either way I checked out your gallery and you've got a pretty cool assortment of cosplay, I rarely comment on cosplay images except the ones that are extremely good to the point where the person could easily pass as that character.
People do put a whole lot of work into their character, something I'd never have the time to do. It's almost like Halloween without it being Halloween lol at least that's how I usually look at the cosplay culture, people doing something that only some people do once every year in October. But I have reason to believe there is a lot more behind the cosplay culture than just people dressing up as their favorite characters.
I'm also sorry about what happened to your father. And hope he gets better. My mom had one car accident, and it cost her $800 which I had to scrap up through commissions to help her cover some damages done to the car, my brother's dental cost are $40,000 so it's tough as hell these days in the States.
But one of my goals is to save as much as I possibly can, that's one reason why I never moved out. Because it allows me to save while also helping my mom too. That's how the Asians and Russians do it. Anyway I'm a talker, so you ever got nothing else to do. Yell at me. I got everybodies back I get tight with.
