Reader Frederick Nakos snapped this Jason Voorhees cosplay at the Quebec City Comic Con over the weekend. Terrifying.
Hey, it’s Legion! Everyone cosplays as Shepard. Nobody cosplay as Legion, so nice job DashyProps Love the “blown open” effect on the chest that makes it look like the outfit’s empty. Love the fact the suit lights up even more. Photo by Lark Visuals Photo by Ryan Daquioag
Bravo. Well done. *applause* Japanese Twitter user Punival created a RX-78 Mobile Suit costume based on the Ver.Ka display model (below). You’d think that would be cool enough, but it isn’t! Punival went to Tokyo’s Odaiba and took these photos: [Photo: PUNIVAL] [Photo: PUNIVAL] [Photo: PUNIVAL] Top photo: PUNIVAL To contact the author of this…
Ronda Rousey is a Pokemon fan. We’ve established this But Ronda Rousey’s fandom has just entered a whole new stratosphere. Ronda has just reached peak Pikachu. Watch, jaws agape as Ronda trains in a Pikachu outfit. Marvel at the fact she could beat your scrub arse dressed in a onesie. This looks as though it…
From announcement to cosplay in around a week. Looks like the newest Street Fighter character is going down OK with fans. Cosplayer is AnaLuSauceda, photos by Verde Limon.
Russian photographer Andrey Shinkarchuk (aka Sketch_Turner) is one of the best at what he does, which is not only taking great cosplay photos but applying just the right amount of Photoshop. Photoshop’s use in cosplay photography can be a little controversial! While almost every image you see on the internet has been manipulated somehow (even…

Stellar team effort by Michaelaand friends.
Being up at 3am on the morning of the convention still gluing things to your costume is basically a cosplayer’s rite of passage, but even last minute costumes don’t have to be that painful. Top image by Steamkittens This time last year I was in that position myself — I had just started playing League…
When cosplay meets TV cooking shows.
Cosplay photos? So 2014. This year’s New York Comic-Con has seen cosplayers captured in full 3D, then uploaded on the internet as interactive models so you can pan and scan and check out their outfits in their entirety. The fanciness is courtesy of 3D modelling site Sketchfab, who were at NYCC all weekend and managed…
Dieselpunk is steampunk’s little brother, focused more on the tech of the 1920s-50s than the 19th century. Think Fallout, or BioShock. Or this amazing suit made by Brian Cargile It’s an original design called The Panzersöldner, and is made up of a combination of metal, rubber, eva foam and plastics. Oh, and it lights up.…

In Ghost in the Shell, there are A.I. combat walkers called Tachikoma. Inspired by spiders, they don’t exactly lend themselves to cosplay. Unless you get creative. As Culture Lab points out, a couple of Ghost in the Shell fans Japan recently showed off these outfits. [Photo: timicyo] In motion: As you can see, they sat…
Last month, an event called Bitva o Fort went down. That’s Battle of the Fort in English, and it saw hordes of Lord of the Rings fans converge on the village of Radíkov in the Czech Republic to recreate an epic battle between the forces of men, elves and some very well-dressed orcs. Via this…
Littleblondegoth Cosplay with a nice homage to some original Destiny concept art
One of the most enduring things about Dishonored is Viktor Antonov’s art direction, leaving us with a game that’s somewhere between a grim Victorian painting and a 21st-century cartoon. It’s tough getting that across in cosplay, but hoo boy, these guys have nailed it. Cosplayers Ryazik, Vikand Mikamiare in the suits here, while the photos…
