| Melanie is one of the original members of Dark Muffins. She would have been in our first skit, had a band competition not conflicted with the con. Melanie has lots of experience in theatre and in Color Guard from high school, so her choreography and costuming skills are right up there with the best in our group. She runs the official Dark Muffins site at http://www.geocities.com/kyorycosplay/darkmuffins.html All the most up-to-date information can be found there. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Above left: Super Sailormoon Above right and left: Super Sailormoon now has the gun. "This is what I think of this costume!" While Melanie says this was not her most favorite costume (But seriously, how do you beat D or Black Lady?), she was a great sport for this con. How many of you would wear a short sailor fuku, honestly? We loves the Melanie. |

| At Katsucon 9, Melanie debuted her fabulous "Great Macrocosm of the Universe" costume from Excel Saga. Her friend Sean accompanied her as Space Butler, and the two found an Excel and a Pedro at the con to pose with. So cute! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The work in progress. Melanie at AMA2 with her as-of-then unfinished Vampire Hunter D costume. She still had rabid fangirls glomping her, even at this stage of the costume^^ Surprisingly, the staff DIDN'T recognize the costume, much to my chagrin, since I needed to contact her when my car died....-_- Below Left: Melanie as the Organic Angel Alexiel, from Angel Sanctuary, version 2.0, Otakon 2003. Below: Melanie as Alucard from Hellsing and Christina as another character from the same series, Nekocon VI. |
