Reader Donovan was one of two students who put together this great documentary called The Dark Side: A Tale of Black Cosplay
Meet Korean coplay star Tasha, who as you’re about to see is straight up killing it as Overwatch’s Tracer We’ve featured her work many times on Kotaku previously, and with good reason: she’s one of the world’s best, and this Tracer is no exception. In keeping with the fact that this entire character’s personality and…
Last month, the Emerald City Comic Con took place in Seattle, and as you’d expect, there was some very good cosplay on show. Photographer The Will Box was there taking snaps of some of the best of it, and you can see his shots below. Note that while I’ve got cosplayer information for some of…

Dutch Props is a prop builder and cosplayer from (wait for it) the Netherlands. He’s also a member of the Stony Cosplay group, who specialise in Halo cosplay gear, and whose stuff is so good they’ve worked directly with Microsoft on ads and videos. This is his ODST cosplay gear. Love the cigarette packet, nice…
For most people involved, cosplay is a hobby, but for some it can be more
Remember, Gal Gadot isn’t the only Wonder Woman around. This is cosplay superstar Meagan Marie, and while the outfit isn’t new (it’s a spotlight feature in *PLUG* our cosplay book*END PLUG*), this is still a great new image from Kayhettin
Some esteemed guests at this year's Emerald City Comic Con
While I’m sure cosplayers the world over are busy looking for some friends, black suits and a fancy car for a main cast shoot, Byndo Gehk has gone the solo route and made this cool Cidney outfit.
The Real Finn and Rey are a cosplay duo from Utah, who…well, the name kinda says it all. They’re an actual couple (currently engaged, getting married in May), and that kid in the BB-8 suit isn’t a random baby stolen for cutness purposes, it’s theirs. All photos here—and yes, they were taken in a real…
Leo Camacho, that’s one hell of a pilot. Photos by York in a Box. They were taken at WonderCon last month.
Judging by how often you see them in the course of a day, cosplay photos must be some of the most valuable items on the internet. It’s a shame, then, that the people actually responsible for them get so little credit (or reward) for taking and starring in them. Whether it’s Twitter accounts posting “Sexy…
FilmCraft made this video of some of the cosplayers at OZ Comic Con, which went down in Perth on April 2-3.

Yes, this is Wrestlemania. Yes, this is Xavier Woods’ New Day making their entrance in full-blown Dragon Ball cosplay. Out of a giant, assy box of cereal. An entrance for the ages.
WonderCon, one of the bigger cosplay events of the year, went down over the weekend in San Diego. Photographer Martin Wong was there taking pics of some of the best of them Below are some highlights, but you can see the full gallery on Martin’s Facebook page Note: if you know/are any of the cosplayers…
Remember Steven K Smith’slife-size Orc build we featured a while back? It’s now finished, and holy shit. It could literally crush a human. The scale. The detail. The fur. This could have walked onto the set of the WarCraft movie and nobody would have batted an eye. You can see more of Steve’s amazing work…
One of the highlights of this year’s Sakura Con was this trio of Overwatch cosplayers. Note, just in case someone wants to take up arms, that these pics were snapped before the whole butt pose thing blew up, so this is just a homage to what was at the time a victory pose, not cosplay-as-commentary.…
