Cosplay is an artistic and creative outlet that is unfortunately misjudged by many people. Cosplay means different things to different people. For me, cosplay is about appreciating the designs of any character, the beauty and detail that went into the style. I personally do not role play, while I like the characters I cosplay and respect role players, it's just never been my thing. For me, it is all about the designs and how well I can translate fictional designs into reality.

Outside of cosplay, my two other passions are web design and music. I work in both the IT and Media industry. To relax I love playing video games (PC), perform on the piano, designing websites, study languages, practice meditation & yoga, photography, go traveling and try to make the most out of life. My personal site is w@tera.

For general web site related questions, please visit SuzakuNU's FAQ page.

May I use your photos on my website?
Please email me and tell me before you take anything from this website. I think it's important we discuss what you wish to use the photograph for first, incase you get the wrong idea and use it for something inappropriate. Please be sure to give credit to this site and you MUST leave the watermark intact both for my own costume images AND convention images (as all convention images have been taken by either myself or Toby.

Did you make all the costumes on the website?
Yep, each and every single one. And I have the scars and burn marks to prove it!

Did you ever take any professional sewing lessons?
No, everything was self-taught. It's not at all hard, all you need is time and the passion.

Do you do commissions?
No sorry, I just don't have the time.

How did you make your wig?
I order my wigs online from various stores, then style, cut, dye, thicken and alter the wig till it matches the character I plan to portray. If you have any specific questions, I'm more than happy to answer them.

Are you selling any of your old costumes?
If I do, I'll be sure to announce them on the website and ebay.

Why don't you smile in your photos?
Because I don't know how to smile without cringing at my photos later on. True story.

Can I ask you a specific question aboout the construction behind a costume?
You are welcome to ask me any questions related to my costumes. Please try to be as specific as possible, I don't have the patience to explain how to create an entire costumes, just elements of them. If you don't receive a respond from me in two weeks, please email me again.

I'm a photographer, would I be able to do a photoshoot with you?
Depends on who you are and availability etc, contact me and we'll take it from there.

The purpose of this website is to showcase all my costume / fashion related creations. I originally started out as what is known as a cosplayer, however as of late I've started to move towards more original designs, while still incorporating elements from my cosplay designs.

Extreme Motion was opened on the 20th of September 2002, and was originally intended to provide information on cosplay, cosplayers and other aspects of this growing industry. However over the years it has developed into my own personal cosplay portfolio, showcasing my own creations and costumes based on animanga and video game characters.

The title Extreme Motion, was inspired by two songs that were on my playlist as I created this site. The first being "Motion (ft. Grant Lee Phillips)" by Paul Oakenfold and the second was "Feel the Beat (DJ Thylacine Extreme Mix)" by Darude. "Extreme" represents the burning passion within a true cosplayer, one who takes pride in their creations and art. True be told, one must be quite an "extreme" anime or art fanatic to create such beautiful costumes. The word "Motion" is exactly what cosplay does, it brings the characters literilly to life, or better yet, into "motion".
