He did another one, that's not crappy!

Story behind this is that it's actually literally done on the steps of a convention and that it was also unplanned instead of a photoshoot. Quite impressive.

Check out the RPF or just head to the website for the 501rst. They have many good resources.

Didn't know about RPF, thank you.

501st seems to have a lot of the guidelines for accuracy, but nothing in the way of patterns. Not that I can find anyway.

At what point does stuff like that not qualify as cosplay? It's a professional studio makeup job. We don't post pictures of studio costumes.

Not trying to be a poo poo, just wondering. For the record I'm blown away by that makeup.

I think once professional costumers and make up artists start getting involved it ceases to be cosplay. It's a valid point, where does the hobby end and the commercialization start?

I can sort of see it with the right foot, and of course the underwear showing, but the rest of the picture just doesn't click for me as anything other than a drawing. That's really, really amazing and baffling.

Here's some behind the scenes photos with natural shadows where it's a lot easier to see the work they put into the effect.
