Aion is a MMO roleplaying game in which players from either the Asmodian or Elyos try and save their world from war and dangerous foes like Balaur.

Cosplay so good you won’t believe it is cosplay: Margaery Tyrell in a Game of Thrones
It’s true but these pictures do not show Natalie Dormer, the actress who plays Margaery Tyrell in a Game of Thrones. These photographs by Starbit are of cosplayer Santatory.
Gender swap Aquaman cosplay
This striking cosplay by Tenleid (over 7,000 Facebook Likes) benefits from a fantastic location and photography. The costume, I think, is pretty accurate for Aquaman too. It’s just that Aquaman never quite shared a body shape with Tenleid.
Punk Storm cosplay
Many years ago the X-Men’s storm went through a punk phase. She had a mohawk and all the leather look. I think Kurosune has captured the style well. Not sure how close I’d like to get to this spiky storm! Picture by Jamais Vu and costume by Kick Custom Design.
Pikachu chooses Space Marine armour
This is some curveball cosplay from Australian Supanova Pop Culture Expo. We’ve Pikachu, the zappy Pokemon, as an inspiration for what looks like Warhammer 40K Space Marine armour. No wonder she’s won so many badges.
Colourful Soul Calibur cosplay
This is the second player outfit version of Tira from Soul Calibur V. Colourful! The cosplayer is Leetah and the photographer who captured the stunning colours is JustMoolit.
Star Wars Day: Femme Fett
Boba Fett cosplays are generally top notch. The bounty hunter isn’t an easy challenge given his armour, jet pack and blaster. This cosplayer had just the same level of challenge, this femme version of Boba Fett is complete with a ball gown and I wouldn’t be surprised to find a weapon in that bag. May […]
Freaky Pan’s Labyrinth cosplay
Canadian cosplayer Melanie Colley brought Pan’s Labyrinth’s surreal Faun character back to this reality. This cosplay is freaky but I think it’s freaky in the good way. I’m sure the director would approve. Melanie detailed the steps in creating the piece. It wasn’t easy! You can see more on Cosplay.com.
Cosplay: Diablo III Witch Doctor
In Diablo III Witch Doctors are a hallowed part of Umbaru society. They have a knack for battle and for communing with spirits. In the game their mana recharges slowly but they can summon pets to fight for them. This impressive set of cosplay pictures are of SpcatsTasha from South Korea. She’s part of the […]
Steampunk Snow White
Not the usual mashup, I think, despite both steampunk and Disney princesses being popular choices. The cosplayer is Marta / Enjoy This and she’s wearing a design based on NoFlutter’s design for the Steampunk Fairy Tale Group Art project. The photographer is Alexander Nikolis.
