And ever since I talked to him back in March, I knew that at one point he's going to finish another ambitious project. He was so determined to build the "Razor Crest," that he even sold his car to accomplish that dream. Now, Ayaal has been a big cosplay fan ever since he was 11. Located in Eastern Russia, this city is closer to Fairbanks, Alaska, than it is to Moscow, Russia's capital.
