A parfait is a dessert, but it is also the French word for perfect.
:siren:STOP ACTING LIKE CREEPS:siren:

If there's one things nerds do well, it's make fools of themselves in public. This is the thread for posting pictures of good cosplay, bad cosplay, or just all-around interesting cosplay. Come with us and watch people blow thousands of dollars on a pretty costume.

The rules are simple. Don't make fat jokes, and don't go on long tangents about fat jokes. Don't go on long derails about specific pictures or specific cosplayers. And most important of all:

:siren:DON'T ACT LIKE A COMPLETE AND TOTAL CREEP. DO NOT MAKE CREEPY COMMENTS ABOUT ATTRACTIVE COSPLAYERS OR WRITE PARAGRAPHS ABOUT HOW SEXY YOU THINK THEY ARE. WE DO NOT NEED TO KNOW IF YOU JERKED IT TO SOMEBODY'S PICTURE.:siren:

Just follow these rules, post pics, and have fun.

Ed: Oh yeah, and EW wanted this in the OP:

quote:

Yes, it's a brand new thread all empty of posts. That does not mean you need to feverishly repost "classics" from other threads in days gone by. Simply continue on with new content

For questions about making costumes, go here.

I did Turbo from Wreck It Ralph for a con this weekend. Surprisingly to me there were like 2 other Turbos there. I guess Wreck it Ralph cosplay is starting to be huge.

He didn't walk around in a garbage can the whole day? Way to gently caress it up.

That is awesome. There's so many secrets in that goddamn show, but that one intrigues me the most. And it's just presented as some kid's show.

Are original creations allowed? X-posting this from the SCP thread, it's a zombie/werewolf cosplay (really) according to DA.

I added a few more costumes to my cosplay resume recently. Branched out from my normal comics-only niche a little bit. Working on a Poison Ivy and Miss Fortune from LoL and oh god my entire life has become these stupid costumes. (I am ok with this)

Nope, though I did mention the costume in that thread.

That Sagat is absolutely spot-on. Sometimes you're just born to cosplay one character I think, he's found it.

Don't know if its alright to post something of mine that's still in progress but here it is. Sorry for the crap cellphone picture.

You can probably guess what it is. Still a ways away from finishing it but 50% of that has been done in the past 5 days so I'm on a pretty good roll right now. Hopefully I'll be done with it by the time iron man 3 premieres. (Next to it is a pretty much complete Halo Mjolnir Armor thats been put on hold until the weather gets better)

white Rose from SaGa Frontier

This is a very awesome outfit for a game that really didn't have "good" graphics for the time. How she envisioned that from a jumble of pixels is beyond me but it is pretty much how imagined White Rose would have looked. I think her hair was pink but overall that is ridiculously awesome and gets big points for being rather obscure.

Forgive me for this, but I believe it was based on one of Tomomi Kobayashi's illustrations of the characters in this game. This one in particular. It doesn't change the fact that it's great cosplay.
