2008 - 2009

Minerva McGonagall Sirius Black Nymphadora Tonks Regulus Black

Irvin's first true cosplay was Minerva McGonagall in Halloween 2008, which became the start of the monumental creative endeavor documented in these pages. Irvin joined TGTSNBN at the end of 2008, and in 2009 his cosplaying began to take off. His first specialty was donning the guises of various Black Family members on parties, zombie crawls, and (of course) Halloween. He make a name for his cosplays (and his fake boobs), largely through borrowing costume pieces and hamming it up while in costume.
