Best Young Fan -- Samurai Jack vs. Aku
Pic from Flickr


Best Novice -- Aquaman
Pic from IO9. This guy must have had some stage presence, the pic doesn't look that impressive.


Most Beautiful -- Mirka Fortuna "Trinity Blood"
Pic from IO9. (I think I might have gone with any of a half-dozen of the beauties I've already posted... Oh, they meant the costume...)


Most Humorous -- Welcome to the Dollhouse
(not bothering with a pic)

Best Performance -- Bring It On (Rock the Mouse)
"When you reimagine Disney heroes and villains as rival cheer squads and end it all with a rousing rendition of Toni Basil's Mickey, your sketch is full of win." Sounds hilarious. Pic from IO9


Best Workmanship -- Lady of Pain "Planescape"
Pic from IO9. WHY OH WHY did I not see any other pics of this??? What do people have against PS:T?

Pic from Flickr


Still more to come...

Aha! Found another of the Lady of Pain

And more Okay, I overreacted. I just wasn't using the right search terms.

Best Original Design -- Onigashima Baba
Pic from Flickr


Best Recreation -- Spawn
Pic from Flickr (I think I got the right one, there were multiple Spawns... maybe they had camp-out together... get it? Spawn camping! :rofl: )


Judges' Choice -- Looking Glass Wars
Pic from Flickr


Best in Show -- The Four Seasons
Pic from Flickr


That's it for the winners IO9 highlighted. I'm not sure if there were more they didn't have in their puny and blurry gallery.

I'm not anywhere near finished posting pics I've found. Lots of good stuff still to come, if anyone still cares.

LOL, great quote from the twitter feed of Lindsay Ellis (the Nostalgia Chick):
"I'm always a little thrown off by cosplayers with normal BMIs."

How do you not walk around with like a constant boner? Some of those girls are hot, and the costume just makes them even hotter, and the fact that they'd wear the costume in the first place makes them totally smoking hot.

Before people start posting terrible pics and ruining this moment with that question. The reason why you don’t walk with a constant boner is that for every 1 of these awesome costumes there are 9 terrible ones, with half of them being at best “average looking”. Nothing makes you lose wood faster than coming face to face with a 200 pound shoddy made up, sweaty female Mystique with arm hair...

Other question: some of these suits have...6 feet wide? wings, and robot arms, and whatever. How in the HELL do you move through a crowd with those?!

I have no idea who or what COBRA is, other than a capitalized type of snake. I've sort of deduced they're the bad guys in GI Joe, due to my amazing superpowers of deduction, but hey.

I don't think I could survive a con. If I went alone to enjoy myself, I'd find trouble. If I went with the wife (who wouldn't 'get' the cosplay and excessive 'geekdom' in the first place) I'd be in trouble.

Bad ones asside, I'm used to that (Renn Faries are just as bad). That's why you learn to focus and ignore those bad ones... like white noise... ugly, ugly, white noise.

Some amazing work this year though. I think this is the best spread I've seen come out of the Cons in a while.
