Description
Another one, now with the helmet in my hand.Samus Aran
From Metroid Prime 3 - Corruption.
Photo by at Anime Dreams 2009.
[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

you are the best Samus Aran Cosplayer EVER. I wanted to do a General Grievous cosplay. Maybe I'll use the EVA, now that I saw that it works so good.

WOW. The amount of effort and detail you put in to this cosplay is truely amazing. It looks like samus steped out of a tv screen and went a anime convention.
It is abousultley stunning how detailed this is. Great job with it. And I really can't say more... because its awesomeness just leaves me speechless..

I'm not going to lie but with a bit less plasticy shine and a bit more metallic texture this would be perfect. Other than that, you win at costumes.
