SMASH! Cosplay Competition 2013

SMASH! is THE convention where it truly gives cosplayers the grand stage that they deserve.

The competition is a fantastic platform for novice and expert cosplayers but to say they are the ‘best of the best’ isn’t a true statement. Like every convention, I end up being disappointed as I see so many amazing cosplayers on the floor and around the grounds many of whom simply decide not to compete!

But let’s admire the cosplayers who graced the stage with their presence…
