From Metroid Prime 3 - Corruption.

[EDIT:]
For those I promised more information about the making of Varia Suit, here is an excerpt from my interview at Metroid Database [link] :
"I used various materials and processes. The arms, hand, legs and body were made with sheets of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate).
My friend Lucas and I shaped it by hand, using EVA in 3 different thicknesses.
The Hand Blaster was all done by me, also in EVA. All finishes and details in low relief, I did with the Dremel.
The helmet and shoulders were made in fiber glass by me and my dad. It was modeled using a motorcycle helmet and two polystyrene balls as bases.
The details were carved in polystyrene and polyurethane.
The painting was done with automotive paint.
Electric part was done with 73 high bright LEDs: 30 green LEDs in the shoulders, 26 green LEDs on the Body and 17 red and orange LEDs on Hand Blaster, powered by 8 AA Batteries and a 3v one.
We also used neon green acrylic on the suit and neon orange acrylic on the Hand Blaster."
Time to accomplish the project: 6 Month

I hope that you're incredible work has opened you to new opportunities!

sorry if this has been asked before but the link thats posted in the description doesnt point to the right page anymore. what was the process that you used to create the suit? i'm looking to make one along the lines of the power armor from fallout or maybe even a gundam but I havent found any type of material that i really liked....... then I saw this beauteous work of art. so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks! (and truely, this is the most amazing cosplay costume I've ever seen!)

I'm totally new to that extreme level of cosplaying so sorry for the (probably) stupid questions but my biggest question is how you mounted all that stuff. was it on a body suit or strapped on or what? Thanks, and again, amazing work!
(btw I got a beautiful little 404 error with that new link. maybe its just my computer

Wow. Pretty lady, this is the best cosplay I've ever seen. There must be more people sending approving messages than you care to read but I still wanna send one as well.
Any chance of seeing a video with you walking around in this suit?
