The longer I write blogs about cosplay and around things, the more interesting I have for good cosplays. To truly make a good costume, it may take a lot of hard work and artistic talents.
And the opposite is also true, people pay much efforts may get only unperfect effect of their costumes, while all the work you have done for your favorite characters can get you more respects. Today I’ve decided to go with the best of both worlds, and show my sincerely respect to all of them. Street Fighter is the theme, and as more party approaches, i hope all of these Angel Beats Costumes can bring inspirations to all of you! You might expect if you go down one of these routes.

They’re out to create their own costume drama. A new championship for the serious business of comic costume design, know as “cosplay“, will make its debut at Oz Comic-Con this weekend. Lady Deadpool, otherwise known as Cloverdale 18-year-old Tahlee Patient, said it will be the most prestigious event of its kind in Australia.
As part of the competition, cosplay amateurs and veterans will battle it out in qualifying heats for a shot at becoming the first Australian Champion of Cosplay. The competition, judged on costume craftsmanship, includes a prejudging session and stage display. Entries must represent a character from the pop-culture realm – like a cartoon hero or video game star.
Rinn Bunn, a 19-year-old from Kalamunda, said her favourite character was Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. “I can relate to her. She’s a strong female character,”she said.
The convention will also feature film and TV special guests, including Game of Thrones star Finn Jones, who plays Lora Tyrell in the popular fantasy series. Actor Billy Boyd, one of the Hobbits from Lord of the Rings, will also be at the event.

Cosplay has become popularity year after year, flooding the geekdom with expertly-crafted costumes that can take months, or even years, to design and assemble. Cosplay has become inextricably linked with the thousands of gorgeous and creative women who meticulously dress like their favorite anime, comic book, video game, and movie characters.
Although we usually imagine women when we think of the fashion design and modeling associated withcosplay, the art is becoming a favorite hobby of men around the world too. Traditionally, massive conventions like Comic Con was largely men’s world. It might seem like a sexist stereotype, but at one time, a girl may not have been found within one hundred miles of a comic book store or a showing of the latest Star Wars movie. Nerd culture has become much more inclusive since then, as women embrace their inner artist and reign supreme among some of the best cosplayers and most popular ‘Con attendees in the world.
Now, as men put their artistic and creative abilities to the test by making exact replicas of Boba Fett, Scorpion, and Prince of Persia costumes, cosplay women have some worthy competition. Best of all, many of these men are collaborating with their fellow female Cosplayers to create some of the most realistic costumes and scenes in the industry.
1. Elffi Cosplay
The best in cosplay reaches as far as Finland, where Elffi takes every opportunity to show off his latest creations. In addition to being a well-known cosplayer, Elffi is also an artist and model.
He creates and wears costumes ranging from Yasuo of League of Legends to the aptly named The Duct Taped Man. His cosplay persona is frivolous and fun; he doesn’t take himself too seriously but still designs beautiful, realistic costumes.
2. Danquish
It seems that Danquish can do just about anything in the cosplay world, but he especially shines with characters like Scorpion and Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat. He started cosplaying 4 years ago, but has excelled at the art and proudly proclaims he lives his life “one cosplay con at a time”.
He loves to show off his creations at cosplay and comic book conventions any time he can, including DragonCon. His cosplay art is so revered, a fan of SubZero was inspired to get a tattoo based on Danquish’s version of the character.
3. Steven K. Smith Props
Steven K. Smith Props makes his living as a premier cosplay artist and prop maker in Kansas City, Missouri. He has been obsessed with video games for years and began to take games to a whole new level by crafting characters’ costumes, most notably Borderlands Psycho Bandit masks and Buzz Axes.

4. Mark Meer
Not only does Mark Meer design and make amazing costumes, he also acts as a voice-over artist for video games like Mass Effect and Bioware. One day he’s lending his voice to Commander Shepard; the next he might actually be Commander Shepard.
