The Head Feline Tasha
Article by NANABI



"They will fear the wild..." - Nidalee 

League of Legends has been a big hit in the gaming world recently, and of course the cosplayers refuse to be left behind. Being a LoL player myself, I give my utmost respect to  the cosplayers who give justice to the many heroes I adore and use in the game. Of course, I didn't have any second thoughts when I discovered a very talented lady from the lands of Korea. 

This particular lady has amazed her fans with her detailed and intricate armor from a handful of her amazing cosplays. She has mesmerized both men and women with her beauty and never ceased to make everyone stop and stare at her breathe-taking photos.


TASHA  or also known as GO-EUN OH is a cosplayer reigning from the Republic of Korea who made a name for herself with her jaw dropping portrayals of numerous iconic female characters from several famous console and pc games. Unlike the regular list of cosplays most female cosplayers have, Tasha is one of those who concentrate on a genre; and for her, that genre is games. Tasha has a large number of cosplays everyone remembers her for, but one of the most memorable was her portrayal of Katarina and Nidalee, two well-known heroines of League of Legends. Another is her amazing portrayal of the Demon Hunter class from Diablo III In her anime side, Tasha presents the many attires of the famous Sheryl Nome of Macross Frontier, a diva who has played a big role in Tasha's career and became one of her signature cosplays.
