Harrison Krix of Volpin Props, whose jaw-droppingly outstanding Big Daddy suit I mentioned in one of my previous post has again managed to awe and inspire us by taking some of the most surreal and beautiful photos of him in said suit. He was complemented by his fiancee Emily, who looked equally amazing as a Little Sister. The photos were taken in the Georgia Aquarium, and I think you’ll agree with me that they do indeed look as though the pictures came right out of the game itself! Just compare the pictures with this official Bioshock wallpaper from the 2kGames site and you’ll get what I mean.

After you’re done picking up your jaw from the floor from viewing the rest of the high res pictures in his blog here, you’ll be in for another surprise as he’s currently auctioning off this very same Big Daddy suit on Ebay (auction ends Dec 03, 2009 09:20:14 PST). Yes folks, if you have some extra greens lying around and you feel like owning this superbly made replica costume of the Big Daddy, you actually have the ability to do so now. Mr Krix is even willing to build a custom display stand for the suit for a fee if the auction winner would like one.

This suit and the photoshoot is awesomeness redefined, and I’m dreaming of having it on display in my games room even as I type…*sigh*..note to self..I’ve gotta earn myself more money.

Here’s another extremely well done costume. I think cosplayers in the US are finally catching up to their counterparts in the far east in terms of creativity and quality. And I’ve got a theory to share as well..I think most of the top-quality cosplaying that we’ve been seeing has something in common, and that’s most of them have costumes which completely cover the cosplayers’ face and body. So I guess the lesson to be learnt is to put on something that doesn’t give your identity (or body measurements) away. Ironic ain’t it, considering how cosplaying originated from animes and most animes have scantily clad brtues & babes.

[From Left To Right, Top To Bottom]: Sailor-Mon, Scary Red Riding Hood, Let’s hope all goddesses aren’t like this, Mai Shiranui (Pre Gastric-Bypass), Man-Faye, Naruto & Co. having 1 too many sushi

In my previous post, I came across an absolutely fantastic Big Sister number which somebody donned during the recently completed SDCC 09. Then I thought to myself, why not look up some bad ones and see how bad things can get. Sure enough, as you can see from some of the pictures they can get preeeeetty bad! Enjoy the cosplay carnage.

I wrote about those irresistible Bioshock 2 figures in my previous post, and now I came across these pictures. Bioshock 2 hasn’t been out but there’re already cosplayers out there making brilliant costumed representations of the Big Sister character from the game. This is one of the best cosplays I’ve seen in a while if you ask me. Kudos to the person who took the time and effort in putting together such a great costume.
