Really?? Looks like the stages of a Mario Bros. game on the back of an Eee Pc to me.
Yeah, took some squinting when I was on my laptop, but that's what I see. |

When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

I think she is also the Midna in the Link shoots. Not horrifying, she doesn't have a great body, but unlike many cosplayers, she doesn't force you to notice that.

I always think that cosplayers are one step away from being furries, if they aren't already.

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

She actually makes a good Chell since Chell wasn't supposed to be a looker. Why the cosplayer hate? Fangirls are the scary ones, and some of them cosplay, but not all cosplayers are strange. Some of us are perfectly normal.  |
Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

It's overcompensation from a bunch of guys with smeared photos of Chun Li and Night Elf cosplayers hidden in their bottom drawers. |

There was a reason for the Joker smiley.  I've only dressed up for RenFest in recent years, though, and that's been nothing special beyond the personal satisfaction of making my own outfit. Some cosplayers really are scary. |

I had forgotten how much effort Cosplayers can put in, some of those shots (regardless of the actual human beings in them) are fucking awesome. I'm sure that there were probably about 20 other people for every one in that album that look absolutely awful but still. Hell check out the King Leonidis cosplayer, dude's ripped. I also say the girl in question (if the Hermione cosplayer) is pretty cute.
Barely related, was on a train on Sunday when two 16-17ish goths sat down opposite me. One had a little teenage beard going and the other was quite tall, long greasy black hair and was, if not gay, very camp. They kicked their conversation off with the latter going, "So I guess you're a CosPlayer now," with the other guy being somewhat defensive. They then got out a DS and a PSP and the first guy started playing something while the other guy showed him other CosPlayers and discussed ideas for costumes. It was kind of weird and I felt a bit like I was watching someone slowly getting dragged into a cult.

Life sucks shit, and if its something that they enjoy and it makes them happy, why should we worry about it?

This discussion calls for overused memes.  And serious cosplayers are awesome. Even ugly ones. You are weak bunch of geeks. |

Relax Ghandi, we're not rounding up people and having them shot for wearing a costume. We will, however, make endless fun of them because quite a few of them seem to be trying to draw attention to their fatness and/or ugliness. Because it's funny. |

I actually kinda admire the effort that cosplayers seem to go to, even if I find them a tad scary. I suppose they're an easy target for ridicule, particularly amongst geeks because it's comforting that there are people more geeky than ourselves. Anyway, awesome pictures. These have done the rounds all over the place recently, but they are awesome. Couple of Russian photographers made a moon (and later a star) and used it to take a bunch of photos:   |

As long as we aren't talking about the fat, hairy dudes dressing up like Sailor Moon, then I don't see the harm in it. To each their own.

I think good cosplay fucking rocks. Bad cosplay is funny. Win/win. Non-scary cos-play pics or it didn't happen.   |

Yeah, but they're also all crazy.
I've dated a few of them - all 100% certifiably batshit crazy. The more attractive the cosplayer is, the more they are at the boiling point of absolute insanity.

The gnome chick costume might be bad but it's frigging brilliant and hilarious. I want one.

If that skin ever saw daylight, I'm quite certain she'd spontaneously combust. Kinda like that paper stuff magicians use to make little expolosions around a candle. Only much much bigger. |
