- what is your story and how did you get into cosplay ?
-My name is Hamad Ismail Salem, mostly known as Jeenzo, I first started cosplaying in 2012 when I went to a gaming event wearing a deadpool shirt and mask, people were taking pictures with me and I loved it, especially imitating the character I was dressed as, I started buying cosplays in 2013 and 2014 and in 2015 I tried to teach myself how to make my own cosplays and it turned out well for a beginner, then my passion and skills just grew from that point onward, my style comes in light cosplay so I can mimic the movement of the character I’m portraying, my first goal is to bring the character I’m dressed as to life, making fiction a reality.
share with us your first experience cosplaying, and if you have pictures you are more than welcome to share them with us
– My first was cosplaying deadpool in the simplest way possible, a deadpool shirt and a mask, yet people loved it and I loved being one of my favourite marvel characters.
- what are your thoughts about the arabic cosplay community
I’ve noticed it’s slowly growing and more and more people are getting into it, becoming more than a community, helping and supporting eachother, sometime trouble arises, but the end we are all connected here and one day the world will recognise Arabs and our own style of cosplay sometimes.
- we would like for you to share your feedback about our website with us
So far so good to be honest, featuring arabic cosplayers and giving them the recognition they deserve, for now all I can say is keep up the good work.
- have you ever won a cosplay competition? Tell us about it.
I got second place once in MEFCC 2015 and got 3rd place in gamescon 2017.
How long u take to create cosplay
– depends to be honest on how much material I’m working with and the process of the cosplay itself, sometimes caries from 1 week to 6 months almost, my latest cosplay which was pantheon took almost 2 months to finish and inosuke before it took about 2 weeks to finish.
