Madame Vastra
Madame Vastra (from Doctor Who) by Toki
"I never did a trial run of the makeup, so this was my first go at it. I have to say, I’m pretty happy with the results!! Only a little bit of the prosthetic started to pull up, and that was after I marched in the parade."

Silk Spectre

"I was looking at images of the new "Before Watchmen" comics and saw the most amazing illustration by Jim Lee of Laurie Jespeczyk in her new Silk Spectre outfit. I fell in love with the design and knew I had to make it. Plus, the new comics are fantastic and really paint the picture of a young Laurie Jupiter coming into her own as Silk Spectre, coming of age from a young and almost naive teenager (very reminiscent of Kara Zor-El as Supergirl) to a strong and capable young superhero.
The costume is gold milliskin spandex with black wet-look spandex detailing. The suit is lined in nude spandex lining fabric. The belt and boots are metallic black spandex, and the buckle is craft foam. I made the earrings from lacquered cardboard, and the wig is from my Nadie costume (I just pulled it into a ponytail).
The best moment of my Comic Con was meeting Amanda Conner in costume and having her and her colorist sign a large Laurie Print AND giving me the first three Silk Spectre comics, signed of course. It was amazing to meet them and they were just so excited to see my costume - it was phenomenal and I loved it. I can't wait to wear Laurie more!"

"Just as I hoped it to be. The Avatar cosplay shoot finally happened. It was also one of the craziest idea we ever had where we had less than two days to prepare for everything. Thank God everything went quite well. I should consider having more crazy ideas."
Harley Quinn
Harley Quinn (from Batman: Arkham City) by Rebecca Greening
Photographed by Simon Trussell
"She's beautiful, dangerous, incredibly loyal and perhaps even a little too easy (for the Joker at least) Harley Quinn is the kinda girl you see at a party drinking from a keg and drop-kicking guys that get a bit too handsy. No one messes with her, yet she messes with everyone. Few women represent anarchy and loyalty quite as well as the wannabe Mrs. Joker. Is our stunning Harley, Rebecca Greening, as beautiful as the comic book villan? No doubt. Is she as dangerous? You could find out, but it might cost ya."

"I'm not a very good seamstress, this costume is instead modified from purchases which I've worked very hard on and am still in the process of doing. I don't claim to know anything about sewing, in fact most everything I've done so far has just been me winging it and hoping that the cosplay will turn out alright, so please be patient."
