Yes, she’s the one I once took my cosplay name from (well, her and also Spider-Man), and she’s still my favorite heroine from the Marvel universe. I still dream of making her classic costume one day. But the story of this cosplay was quite spontaneous.

The night before I left for a vacation in Thailand, I suddenly decided I wanted to shoot something there. I had yellow and green fabric, and of course, the first association was Rogue. So I went with her — especially since the Savage Land arc was a perfect fit for the Thai locations, and Rogue’s outfit from that story was pretty easy to make.

Did I mention this all happened the night before my flight? The entire costume, start to finish, was made in just five hours (a record I still haven’t broken). I didn’t get any sleep, but I did have a brand-new cosplay!
