It is rare in life that come across a person who is so pure hearted, talented, and wicked smart that you can not help but revere them. Now take that rarity and multiply it by four, the result is a cosplay group by the name of Horsemen Of! This group is a combination of two amazing cosplay couples, KnowOne’s Design and Frank and Nat’s Armory. They pack so much creativity and incredible hard work into everything they do. To be sure to give everyone their time in the spotlight, we split our interview into just one couple at a time, starting with Frank and Nat’s Armory!

TGL: How long have you been into creating incredible content/cosplays and what led you down this path?

F&N: We have been “cosplaying” since 2008, it all started as Halloween costumes! We made Captain America and Black Widow; we visited our local comic book shop and got asked to come back for some special events and we never stopped! We really started making costumes for Halloween partied each year, trying to to outdo the previous years! All the way back to childhood!

TGL: What has been your favorite moment?

F&N: We both agree that Seattle of 2017, at Emerald City Comic Con with our best friends KnowOnes Designs! It was just the perfect mixture of friends, fun, and costume. It also started our chocobro adventure which restarted our love of what we do in this crazy costume world we live in after a huge slump! It reinvigorated us!

F&N: Paul – Bubbles from Trailor Park Boys! Funny, likes kitties, and would do anything for you!
Debra – I already have the best friend and best husband, perfect! But I always can make room for Prompto! He just needs hugs!

TGL: When you encounter a creative block, how do you deal with it?

F&N: Playing video games, bouncing ideas off friends, getting lost a good movie! Fifth Element, Step Brothers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Pitch Perfect are some of our go to pick me ups.

TGL: What advice do you have for any aspiring content creators out there that goes beyond the normal advice of don’t give up?
