    Default Warhammer 40k Cosplay

    Have any of you done any cosplaying as 40k characters? Last year at Youmacon(Detroit's big anime and general geekdom con) I saw a pretty cool tech-priest, and this year I'm gonna do my own tech-priest costume and maybe something else simple like an Inquisitor or something from IG.
    Armies played:
    Codex Marines, Necrons

    No but I did see a pratorian at Kitacon. And I missed the farseer at gamesday.

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    I've seen a few. I even know a few who have done it.

    Eldar Warlock, Dark Eldar Archon, and I started on a Dire Avenger a couple of years ago but never really finished it, and I'm planning on taking what I've done so far and making it into either an Autarch or Prince Yriel depending on how much I can get done between now and the end of May (London MCM Expo). Basically I'll make everything but not paint the armour until I know which I'll have time to finish, then paint it either white for the Autarch or Black for Yriel. I could just paint it black and be an Ulthwe Autarch if Yriel isn't finished, but my main craftworld is Biel-Tan, so I'd like to do that, especially considering their obsession with warfare, a Biel-Tan Autarch is probably the pinnacle. :P

    Me for a start. My avatar is actually a photo of me at Games Day UK a few years ago that made it on to GW's website.



    I also dressed up as a Commissar for the 40k 6th Ed release. That did nearly get me arrested (the story of which can be found elsewhere on this forum) but other than that it made for a fantastic day, especially as the GW staff left me in charge of running various mini-games, giving me a great excuse to shout at the annoying little kids who were there :P

    Always thinking 2 projects ahead of anything I've yet to finish

    I have some costumes but no pictures of them.

    I have lots of pictures of other peoples costumes, though.

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!
