Confronting all those sexy fake-geek cosplayers

September 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

It’s a problem. You’re at a con. There’s a sexy cosplayer with plenty of flesh on show. Here’s the question: are they really a geek? One journalist decides to tackle the problem in this video: “Dear Fake Geeks, Go Away?” Wait? Did you think this video would be about fake geek girls? I’m pleased to […]

Epic DragonCon cosplay… and cosplay with cars

September 11, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve already seen some great cosplay from DragonCon. For example, a man in a mask getting the better of the Scooby Gang and the crazy Kerbals. Beat Down Boogie’s Epic “Part 1” needs to be watched though… especially if you want to see how clever cosplay cars can be. You can find some stills from […]

A cosplay Zoe from MCM Scotland Comic Con

September 7, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The first ever MCM Comic Con to run in Scotland has just finished. It’s held in Glasgow but isn’t Glasgow Comic Con, I guess MCM didn’t think Glasgow was big enough or are sure they’re not going elsewhere in Scotland too and so this arm of the franchise gets to be a country level Comic […]

Oops! The Scooby Gang versus a man in a mask

September 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Reddit user /u/KingTofu shared this picture of his friends at DragonCon. It turns out that discovering the monster is just a man in a mask isn’t always a good discovery for the Scooby Gang. Thumbs up for the cosplay and a gold star for the expertly timed jump!

Laura “Lightning” Jansen wins Dragon Cosplay Summit 2013

September 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think this is a good idea. If you’ve got a game like Dragon’s Prophet to promote then run a big cosplay event. That’s what Infernum did. During Gamescon in Cologne this year, an event with some 300,000 visitors, they held a cosplay summit competition for the MMORPG. The winner? Laura ‘Lightning’ Jansen; taking 37.8% […]

Going to DragonCon as Kerbals

September 4, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Meet the Kerbals. These are the aliens from the Kerbal Space Program (KSP) a sandbox space sim for Windows, OS X and Linux and available on Steam. Players lack much in the way of engineering skills and common sense but they’re happy and willing to become a spacefaring civilization. As it happened a group of […]

Scary female Predator cosplay

August 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Cosplayer OXtheII created this costume herself. Photoshop was used only in the background. On Geek X Girls she said; “This is my female Predator costume, I made pretty much everything you see in the photos including the mask, minus the backdrops. I’ve always loved monsters and creatures since I was a kid and now I […]

Attack on Titan: Colossal Titan leather mask

August 5, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Attack on Titan featured in Irregular Reconnaissance: Anime #1 and landed a “highly recommended” status. That said; I’m not sure I’m that strong a fanboy as to wander around wearing this Colossal Titan mask. If you did fancy one – for a bit of cosplay or something like that – then you can pop over […]

Steampunk Belle: The Beauty and the Beast cosplay and inspiration

July 25, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This fantastic illustration is the work of deviant artist HelleeTitchs and shows Belle from Beauty and the Beast in steampunk form. The illustration inspired Rachel D. to turn it into a reality and so with her prom dress and Darkspectre Custom Couture she did just that. DCC worked on the alterations and corset while Rachel […]

July 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Soul Edge is the main antagonist in the computer game series Soul Calibur. The sword was created by humans and was once an impressive but ordinary sword. The weapon developed its own wicked soul after being covered in blood and involved in hate crimes for so long. Anyone who grasps the sword are cursed by […]
