Last Ayacon we teamed up with the members of Cosplay Island to produce a gallery of cosplayers in Cosplay HQ. This went down well, so we're doing it again - and we want more pictures!

We're all used to seeing images of costumes online, but what happened to the days of images being displayed offline, in photographs and galleries? Cosplay Island intend to rectify this by filling the Cosplay HQ with a 'Cosplay Showcase' - a collection of cosplay photos sent in by members to show off their hard work.

If you are a member of Cosplay Island, simply enter your photographs using the guidelines below before the 17th July!

How to enter:

1. All entries are to be emailed to support@cosplayisland.co.uk with the subject 'Cosplay Showcase'.
2. Please include the following information within the email:

- Your Cosplay Island username
- The character name(s)
- Series name(s)

3. You may only submit up to 3 photographs of yourself alone or in a small group. This can be three different photos of the same costume, or three completely different costumes - the choice is yours.
4. Please provide high quality images where possible, this ensures they look good when on the wall!
5. Dealine for submitting images for the Showcase is the 17th July. Any images submitted after this date may be included, but there is no guarantee.

This isn't a competitive or judged event, just a display of all the fantastic cosplayers we have here in the UK. We aim to display everyone who submits photographs through to us, however please note due to space, we may not be able to display all 3 of your images.

If you aren't a member of Cosplay Island yet, you can find the site here:

Lastly, for everyone who submits photos - if you wish to take the prints home at the end of the convention you are more than welcome! Simply speak to the team in Cosplay HQ to find out details.
