Kitsune Courtney joins Otaku Nights

As a model of 8 years and a life long crafter, I decided to merge the two into my cosplays! I’ve now been cosplaying for 6 years and I’m passionate about makeup, wig styling, and foam smithing. I love strong women so some of my favorite characters are 2B, Zero Two, Satsuki Kiryuin, and Violet Evergarden.
