Cosplay at Otakon 2016 - Invasion of the LED!

Cosplay at Otakon 2016 - Invasion of the LED!

No convention is complete without our CosPlayer photos! One thing I'd like to mention is that there always seem to be advances in Cosplay construction, and for the past few  years, designs in the use of worbla and foam have been getting fairly sophisticated in all areas - armor, weapons, wearable creatures such as dinosaurs... the whole lot.

I've now noticed a big advance on another theme: LED lighting.

Cosplay Girl of the Week #120 (Amanda from Saw)

This week's Cosplay Girl we get a little brutal. I love the first three Saw movies and one of my favorite characters is Amanda. Naturally when I saw this pic the good folks at BeatDownBoggie took there was no way I wouldn't feature it. The cosplayer name is Randi Clemens. Great job Randi on capturing the fear of the bear trap.
