Cohen the Barbarian from Terry Pratchett's Discworld books. And yes, the cigarette is part of the costume.

- Hot water, good dentishtry and shoft lavatory paper.

Fits him perfectly.

He even has a tattoo of Nobby Nobbs (at least, looks like there could be other characters too) on his leg. He has to be the most badass looking discworld fan there is. And that has to be the dumbest sentence I have written all year.

Holy crap, you're right. I don't recognize most of the other ones, but that's Paul Kidby's version of C.M.O.T. Dibbler to the right of Nobby.

Yeah, my first thought was "she would make a really cute Fiona."

My second thought was "is that Harley a guy or a girl?"

Tree Trunks from Adventure Time? Right colour.

I couldn't find anyone cosplaying her.

Ivy there might've been inspired by last night's Hoarders: Buried Alive" where roots were growing up out of the toilet. Goddamn, that is more self absorbed arrogance than Spanx can fix.

Anyway, does anyone do Vader without the suit or anything like that? Relating to when he was put back together?

Is there any groups or pictures for Snuffbox, Black Books, or OSA Astronauts?

Why is it "self absorbed arrogance"? Because shes fat and feels like cosplaying a character of her choice?

Well it's not completely unknown for a tree trunk to give people wood ...

(I'd hit it as well.

)

That Harley Quinn looks like she might be somewhat crazy (probably 'annoying' crazy rather than 'psychotic' crazy) so if the Ivy isn't cosplaying to her body type at least the Harley is cosplaying to her mental type.

Edit: I just realised that Harley Quinn is to female cosplayers pretty much what Deadpool is to male cosplayers.

There's even the genderswappers:

And then there's these:

And while I was searching for those I stumbled over some cosplay I thought I'd never see:

B'WANA BEAST!
(The character on the right is as Madelyne Pryor from the X-Men comics as her Goblin Queen persona.)

I have no problem with that poison ivy. She's got a corset on instead of straight up spandex. I think her main misstep us the green face paint and posing with her size 00 friend.

dinozombiesgoRARR: Dec 25, 2010; Momma said knock you out

A quick google search shows that she goes by the names Sailor_Aly or AlyChu. Click for her other costumes: Morrigan, Black Cat, Yuna, Dark Phoenix, etc etc.

I have a picture of my parents chilling out at that in the late 70s. I need to go see it in person one of these days.

I always thought it would be a fun place to do a photo shoot for a Shadow of the Colossus Wander costume.

That Dhalsim is amazing, and very nice, too, along with the Cami he was with. Dunno what his silver hoops and bracelets were made our of, but the paint would rub off on him by the end of the day. He had some great poses.
