After this section concludes, the authors commence to discuss ideas on moving beyond the beginner stages by honing various niche skills. Finally, the book concludes with a large compendium of recommended stores, communities and other resources perfect for cosplayers.

Hundreds of hours of research and collaboration were lavished upon this book. To write it, the authors drew on the spirit of commitment and passion that is at the very core of good cosplay. It is guaranteed to give newbies and beginners plus even experienced cosplayers the guidance and tips they need to do well in this, the most epic of hobbies.

Cosplay enthusiasts never have to settle for poorly edited or amateurishly made guides ever again!
