the clever cosplay thread

[Ann]

For inspiration or just for fun, post cosplays that you think are really clever or original! Here are some of my favorites:

Sketchy Kamina, he even drew on his wig and glasses www.cosplay.com/photo/2145902/
on the same note: Lone Wolf and Cub (I LOVE the hand drawn look of these!) www.cosplay.com/photo/293737/
"Wanted" Sanji (if you read One Piece, you'll understand) i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/tipsymcstagger/clever%20cosplay/Sanji_Cosplay.jpg

I'm linking this one for the facial expression/props/setting, not for the costume itself (though it is an awesome costume)

I'm also a big fan of original designs, particularly ones that are easily recognizable if you know who the character is but still striking even if you don't. What do you think of these ones?

Those are all very cool. I need to gather up some inspirational cosplays too!

sprite Edgar from ff6: www.cosplay.com/photo/612313/ it may not be the most complicated and stunning costume in the world, but it's pretty damned accurate! It made me laugh, anyway.

One of my all time favorites took place at AX'03. It's Voltron Lions XD
