Sorry to necrobump, but I saw somewhere that someone was interested in getting the thread up and running again. That, and to be honest, I still have lots of cool cosplays I'd love to put up and show to the world. Also... I love discussing cosplay in general. I'd love to have more places to talk about it!

Here's another ALA photo, yeah I'm the Medic, but it's the Bison I want to address. He was definitely the coolest Bison I had ever seen, and I love looking up Street Fighter cosplay. When he tapped his wrists together, the pieces around his wrists would LIGHT UP. It was radical.

PSYCHO POWERRRR.

I have nothing to contribute except my own cosplay photos.

Yes it's Hetalia, no I'm not retarded.
I'm Turkey in the front and my friend is Greece there in the back.

I like this photo, I actually look decently manly.

Pretty bad ALA photo since my camera was acting up the entire weekend but GOOD LORD this Matthew Patel was AWESOME.

I snagged more pics of him and the whole Scott Pilgrim meetup, but the quality was just horrendous.

i guess this is better off here than the camwhore thread

wore it to a convention today. 3 people recognised me. 4 people asked me if i was there mummy. several people were terrified of the mask and were thusly menaced

There's nothing wrong with Hetalia and Hetalia cosplayers.
I know plenty of sane cosplayers, and they remind me that there is good in the fandom.
Sweet outfits by the way, both of you.
I've been considering here and there whether or not I want to cosplay Hetalia myself.
If only I weren't so short, I'd be Germany... I love Germany.

Oh damn son, that's so rad!

>>5727
I've never heard of or seen the character you're cosplayin', but bro, I really like the look.
I am intrigued.

>>5733
its none other than Stockbroker, Karaoke champion and zombie slayer Mr Foster from Killing Floor.

you may know him from the promotional Pyro mask and tie from TF2

The idea of an Ubercharged M. Bison excites and terrifies me.

>>5727
The Union Jack pin is a nice touch. I would've liked to see the black/turquoise tie, but seeing as I've never actually seen one irl (with the exception of that pixel tie at ThinkGeek), it's alright.

placeholder tie.

You could only imagine the sheer badassery and carnage to come of it.

Another ALA picture, Shingen Takeda of Sengoku Basara.
My friend swears I have some kind of nerdy crush on that big ol' bear.
I think I'd be willing to believe her, given how excited I was to see this amazing cosplay while I was there.
Or more like, how shy I was when I saw him.
My friend took the picture for me. Derp.
I was in awe by the amazing, and that never happens to me. Pfft.

God I am such a dork. Hah hah.

I think the people who cosplay 'villain' characters put a lot of devotion and polish into it. That M. Bison guy is pretty awesome (and so is his pose!) =]

I've never really cosplayed myself, but Jesus, this Jesse from Pokemon cosplay is amazing.

That's very true, I've noticed.
Baddies often get the best outfits, so lots more effort is put into them.
I've seen that Jessie and James before on cosplay.com and DevArt as well.
Never fails to impress me, I love the wig work.

Speaking of great villian cosplay, I love this Nobunaga.
The Mitsunari was nice too, but I can always appreciate great armor work.

Also, Merlin lounging by the pool.

>>5772

the fabric is PERFECT. but its a godamn skinny tie. what do you think?

DURP DURP DURP

Cosplay of Final Fantasy IX concept art.

As a fan of Vivi, this pleases me.

One of the things I love about Otakon is the OtaRockman group. What's even better is that these people all work together on their stuff through their forum, so they're helping me figure out Iris and Colonel from X4 for myself and my brother.

That said, fucking Harpuia.

>>6708
I seriously admire people who can make armor and outfits like that.
They're some talented looking cosplayers, ho damn.

WHO NEEDED MUNNY?

I'll be prining out some of these to throw at distribute to people at cons
