Male Figure – Stripes
Female Figure – Lace
Gender Nonconforming – Polka Dots
Fun Fact:
Bright colors in insects often signal toxicity or strength, not softness.
HANDS PERFORMANCE – Rosie the Tarantula - $100

Subcategories

Female Figure Face – Iridescent Emerald
Sickening winged eyeliner required.
Gender Nonconforming Face –Iridescent Red
Beginner Face – Pearlescent White
Soft, pearlescent white.

BIZARRE – Colorado Cryptids $150

From ManBearPig to Tommyknockers, Slide-rock bolters and beyond, this category invites competitors to transform into an imagined creature that blurs the line between myth, satire, and fear.
COMMENTATOR vs COMMENTATOR $100
Commentators must bring it using a chant that includes the word “chrysalis.” Control the crowd and elevate the room.
Fun Fact:
A chrysalis is the stage where a caterpillar fully transforms into a butterfly, where everything breaks down before becoming something new.
