Sometimes, you see a group cosplay effort that looks like it took a lot of design and planning, and looks pretty good for a bunch of humans in costume. Other times, like here, you see a group cosplay effort that looks like three characters walked straight off a TV set and into the real world.…
The 2016 edition of MAGFest, a big music games festival, went down in DC over the weekend, and there was a ton of cool cosplay on show. Photographer Devon Rowland was there, and she took these shots of the cosplayers in attendance. You can see more of Devon’s cosplay photography here If you recognise (or…
We’ve already posted a few highlights from Katsucon 2016, but photographers Jason Laboy, Mineralbluand Beat Down Boogie were there the whole time. So here’s a real good look at some of the best cosplayers in attendance at one of America’s biggest cosplay cons. First, Beat Down Boogie’s video! Note that in the middle there’s another…
Julia Voth is an actress who worked with Capcom a bunch of times on the Resident Evil series over the last decade, serving as the character model for Jill Valentine in games like Resident Evil 5 and The Umbrella Chronicles. And here she is, cosplaying as…Jill Valentine. Note of course she’s not the first actor…
Fun fact: Ursula, the iconic villain from The Little Mermaid, was based on real-life drag superstar Divine. So when Canvasdecided to cosplay as Ursula for Katsucon, he took a little of his own Divine inspiration. Aside from designing and building that fantastic outfit, he also entered Katsucon’s masquearade competition, which he promptly dominated with a…
This is the only Fallout 4 cosplay the world needs. Or will ever need. Preston Garvey is Casual Assassin. Hancock is Painkiller
This is Japan’s Yazuki getting pretty much everything about Splatoon right.
As more cool shots come in from Katsucon, which went down over the weekend, a clear theme is emerging: the Pokémon cosplay game was strong If you’re wondering what’s going on here (the gif comes from this clip), allow this video to explain: Original video by Mineralblu
At first glance, this group of cosplayers look like a band of Norse Warrior Goddesses. They’re not. They’re the nine different versions of…Eevee. For reference: So basically, Eeveelution cosplay. Bravo. If you’re a regular Cosplay reader you’ll remember that some of these same cosplayers did something similar recently with My Little Pony Cosplayers: Eevee: Becka…
Maru’s boyfriend Paladinhad, until last week, never cosplayed in his life. Time for that to change. The pair (Maru is a cosplay vet) went together as Link and Zelda to AniRevo Winter 2016 in Vancouver, and looked fantastic Pic by Oshley Photography
Cosplay has always prided itself on its ability to transform fans into their heroes, wherever and whoever they are. In theory, at least. In practice, things haven’t always been that perfect, especially when a fan is black. This piece originally appeared 2/10/16. The cosplay scene is full of cool people who are committed to making…
My new favourite Assassin gets the cosplay she deserves from Elanor-Elwyn. Look at those weapons! That jacket! Photos by Shaadorian
Guild Wars fan Enayla has outdone herself here. Not only has she gone and made a fantastic Asura costume, but she built the accompanying Golem as well. A Golem that’s nine-feet-tall. The Golem can’t walk (at least not yet, anyway), but it has been wired so that its gems light up. Enayla can also clamber…
It may not be the biggest PAX show on Earth for video games, but PAX South is one hell of a cosplay convention. As you can see in these shots from the show, which were all taken by Mineralblu (you can see his full gallery here). By Atelier Heidi By Shinka Studios & Atelier Heidi…
Most don’t, and do it for the love. A very lucky few, however, can make a bit of cash, whether on the internet or in real life, and in this clip Stella Chuu explains how.
My Little Pony cosplay isn’t just for furries. It’s also for adults who want to pretend that said ponies are actually the the Gods of Ancient Battle. (video by Beat Down Boogie) These photos were all taken by Mineralblu. The cosplayers are all in the pic above, and from L-R are *deep breath*: Lua Suicide…
He doesn’t have the power of Gandalf nor the snappy fashion sense of Saruman, but Radagast is a wizard with his own charms, which Canvas Cosplay has absolutely nailed here Photos by Kirby Hartline
That’s Knightmageas Kratos. And no, he didn’t travel to Greece for the shoot; that’s just the President McKinley Memorial in Niles, Ohio, which we now know can double for a mythical Greek temple in a pinch.
There’s just so much to love here. The cosplay for starters, of course, but also the dedication: while the lightsabers have (duh) had some photoshop work done, that hellish weather was the real deal. Rey is Nixie Sweet, Kylo Ren is FenixEmber. All photos by Jason LaBoy
This is Glamazonian Rage, with one badass take on Diablo’s badass Johanna. For anyone wondering about the colour scheme, this is Johanna’s Heroes of the Storm look (note she even got the side-shave!). Photos by Photosnxs
