Holiday Interview with Scarlet Flame Cosplay!

My interview with Scarlet Flame cosplay.

Have yourself a little Christmas Schwibbogen. Welcome back to another Holiday interview as my series meeting these FABULOUS cosplayers is in full swing. My next guest, as you might have guessed, is from Germany. With the many historical locations and artwork, it is no wonder why the beloved Schatz takes the most amazing photographs from some gifted photographers to show-off her cosplay artwork. Doing this as a hobby, she loves bringing these characters to life. This wonderful cosplayer is here today and willing to share her exclusive holiday interview with us. So please give an American Holiday LOVE to this enchantress, cosplayer Scarlet Flame.

Raven: Hello Scarlet Flame cosplay. It is so nice to finally meet you. You are the Christmas ornament missing from my tree.

Scarlet: Hello Raven from Germany, Merry Christmas to you in America, Thank you so much to have this Holiday interview with you. It is a gift I will always remember.

Raven: Thank you, Scarlet. I cannot wait to get started.

Raven: As you might know, I have a tradition with all of my interviews and offer some words of advice, a ballad of encouragement if you find yourself at crossroads during your career, and in dire need of inspirational words. So here goes, Marriage is not just spiritual communion. It is also remembering to take out the trash. I hope this advice lasts a lifetime!

Raven: As I continue to wrap my gifts and leave them under my tree, would you be so kind and open your heart and tell us about yourself.

Scarlet: I’m Scarlet Flame, a GermanCosplayer from Germany. My eyes are dark brown, my real hair color is ash blond, but most of the time I dye them red or violet. I am 158 cm. and speak only German ad English with a bachelor’s degree in Finance and Management which is my full-time job next to cosplaying.

Raven: In Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol, what Christmas ghost would you find interested to talk to?
Scarlet: Ghost of the present to see how others celebrate Christmas

Raven: What does Scarlet Flame love seeing during this Holiday Season while in Germany?

Scarlet: Normally, I would go to the Christmas market with my friends or colleagues to eat and drink hot wine.

Raven: I’ve never tasted hot wine. It must be as popular as Hot chocolate here in the states.

Raven: What sort of music do you love to listen to?

Scarlet: Symphonic metal like within temptation, beyond the black or hard rock like disturbed.

Raven: What sort of places would you show Raven Steel to have a good time or places to eat in your country?

Scarlet: If you want typical Christmas gifts, on our Christmas markets

Raven: I just discovered the reason to drop my 2021 diet. That sounds FABULOUS.

Raven: That sounds so wonderful to share your cosplay ideas with others.

Raven: My apologies, please continue.

Scarlet: Workshops about how to make your boot covers for cosplays and a workshop with tutorials on how to make a petticoat or hoop skirt for your fancy dresses. I do all my over-knee boots for my cosplays by myself

Raven: Who do you think should someone be visited by the Christmas devil, Krampus?
Scarlet: It’s a Secret list 🙂

Raven: Characters such as Dark, Bloody, or Gothic interest you doing them.

Raven: Or just the cute and sexy ones?

Scarlet: I’ve cosplayed Cinder, from RWBY which is evil, and Selene from Underworld. I have to like the character and design.

Scarlet: I don’t cosplay only cute characters. More independent and strong-willed types.

Raven: How is the cosplay atmosphere in Germany? Is it widely accepted? Do people LOVE or HATE it?

Raven: I am a strong believer that 30 is the new 20 and 50 is the new 40.

Raven: What do the German women want in their Christmas stocking?
Scarlet: If I look at my friends: something the giver thought about hard, no cooking supplies.

Raven: What things do you find cosplaying to be so exciting to do?

Scarlet: Being creative, learning so many different kinds of techniques, looking differently, and that I can do acting during skits or photo shootings.

Raven: Are there any drawbacks?

Scarlet: When I see how fast others learn new techniques, I need some years for me to learn all this or when my cosplay doesn’t look like it should. It’s time to bush-up on new ways of doing things.

Raven: I’ve noticed most of your cosplay outfits are handmade. Are you a seamstress?

Scarlet: No I learned everything by myself and ask friends for tips or try it out.

Raven: What is Scarlet Flame’s favorite dessert during the Holidays?
Scarlet: Too many, but I love my self-made mousse chocolate.

Raven: What places, whether indoor/outdoor have you done your photoshoots?

Scarlet: At conventions, parks, industrial parks, the harbor, the forest, the hotels, at of course at home,

Raven: Home is where the heart of cosplay is found.

Raven: Is there any place in the world would you love to do a photoshoot in?

Scarlet: Neuschwanstein Castle inside, other castles inside, jungles.

Raven: How have your fans treated Scarlet Flame cosplay overall?

Scarlet: I don’t have so many fans but most love that I do so various kind of cosplays and that I can show sexy outfits in a strong way, not only in a sexy way

Raven: Would you ever do cosplay with exotic animals like a Tiger or Leopard?

Scarlet: I would love to but for me, I try to be conscious of the well-being of animals, are treated well, and have a good life. So don’t think that will ever happen.

Raven: What Christmas gift would your fans get to make you cry?
Scarlet: Anything handmade.

Raven: What places/locations in Germany have you done photoshoots?

Scarlet: Outside the Castles in Würzburg and Karlsruhe, opera Nuremberg outside, park at Castle Schwetzingen, including the mosque there

Raven: Does the public stare or ask questions when you’re doing a photoshoot?

Scarlet: Most are interested in what we are doing, some are thinking we are doing this for a theatre and sometimes they ask for a picture together.

Raven: Which would you choose, be the wisest or richest in the world?
Scarlet: Wisest, you can get rich with intelligence too.

Raven: Does your personality reflect the character you portray or does the personality of the character reflect a personality you want to become?

Scarlet: Depends on which character I portray.

Raven: Should the body of a woman dictate what sort of character to cosplay?

Scarlet: No cosplay what you want, you can body shape a lot with different kind of technics

Raven: How did you get the name of Scarlet Flame cosplay?

Scarlet: Puuhh… I wanted first only Scarlet but this was taken

Scarlet is for fire and the color red, both are part of me and Rogue has the nickname Scarlett O’Hara, Flame for fire, blazing, my temperament.

Raven: What do you want this Christmas gift?
Scarlet: Items for my wedding next year. Also, I want to relax this Christmas with my fiancé and our families.

Raven: Will you ever cosplay a character that will be outside your comfort zone?

Scarlet: Perhaps, in the past, even Psylocke was out of my comfort zone, now I love her

Raven: What sort of advice can you offer to those who are starting themselves into cosplay?

Scarlet; Everyone is different. If someone learns fast, don’t compare with them. Have your speed and be proud of everything you learn.

Scarlet: And try to figure things out. It took many years for me to learn to craft armor for example.

Raven: And finally, if Raven Steel was naughty all this year, what sort of gift would you give him?
Scarlet: A piece of coal.
