Are there any seams on the piece?
Is it sturdy?
Is the craftsmanship clean?
Can you tell what the prop is made out of simply by looking at it?

As a first year contest and we are presently unsure of how many entries we will receive, it will be one level only. If there is enough interest this year, next year we will expand it into our regular 3 cosplay judging levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Master.
