Get a fake goatee and become the evil mirror universe version?

Thought evil mirror universe version just meant a barred midriff, which is redundant with a madmax cosplay.

:goonsay:

Everyone in the mirror universe naturaly grows goatees, the women just shave theirs, but with the shortage of razors in madmax...

Some of the most unique costumes I saw DragonCon this year:

The teacher from the Magic School Bus

His chain mail was made out of pull tabs.

I think it's supposed to be a crossover nod to Jackman's role as Bunnymund/Easter Bunny in Rise of the Guardians.

Got a chance to do my very first cosplay this weekend at DragonCon.




It's from Jim Butcher's upcoming book series Cinder Spires. I'm the one in the (intentionally) horrible suit. The cane is my own creation and glows a whole bunch of colours and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, despite the rush.

Here's a video of it in action, apologies for the Facebook link:

That's pretty cool. Was it an official promotion gig or just a team of eager fans? I imagine most people would have thought it was just generic steampunk stuff.

Did the author intend to make Barf from Spaceballs or was it just interpreted that way.

There's no way that isn't just a Barf cosplayer who wondered in on someone elses shoot.

It was official, but seeing as the author also dressed up I'm not really sure where that puts things.

And it's not Barf, she worked really hard on the costume but didn't realize that the jumpsuit could have helped differentiate.

VVVV Yes indeed.

Having the author himself as part of the cosplay group probably doesn't hurt. That IS Jim Butcher there in the middle, right?

I know it's probably not that bad in small doses but I can't look at corsets like that without thinking about poo poo like


And also maybe that the look on their faces indicates discomfort and/or lack of breath.

That's long-term damage, though, the kind they got from years of 'waist training' with tight corsets. Cosplay corsets and waist cinchers don't do that, mostly because your average cosplayer would pass the gently caress out with that kind of lacing.

I was reading that celebrities are getting back into waist training so we're going to have plenty of people doing terrible damage to themselves to emulate their favorite D-leaguer soon. :smith:

Yeah, I know a lot of actresses who actually like corseting for a role for what it does for their posture. Some get a bit too into it, though, and suddenly they have costumes that don't fit because they've been slowly training themselves tighter and tighter.

As long as they're fitted (and tightened) properly corsets are no different from a bra.

I saw these two, some of the better cosplay at ndk this year. There was also a really good Jeb Kerman walking around too.

I was the headcrab zombie walking around with captain hammer, black beast and the undertaker from black butler (I think that's the characters name).
