Since childhood I adored strong women. The ones who were independent, always reaching their goals and never afraid to express their opinion. They looked so natural to me. They were my role models. I also always chose female characters in fighting games because I liked to imagine myself kicking asses haha. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wonder Woman is exactly the type of character I like most.

Hello everyone! Last week I had a great time on Comic Con Russia 2016. And there was the premiere of my first superhero costume - Batgirl of Burnside. 😈 Was so excited to wear it!

Unfortunately I have only a selfie to share with you now, but of course I'll post new photos as soon as I have them. Hope you like it! And have a nice day! P.S.
