Cool suit! He's got some heavier bones than Tony though.

Right,
 
I know i'm considered a nerd by reading comics, even my wife rolls her eyes at me some times but i draw the line at cosplay. Oh and collecting toys.
 
But more power to you who do these things.

Weird the first time I played this there wasn't an ad second time there was.

This was interesting. I'm not personally interested in doing cosplay but I find cosplayers interesting. I always think it looks so painful. I also thought this was very professionally shot. I think maybe you should considering expanding this? This has Channel 4 doc all over it.

That suit reminded me of a suit I saw at the London Super Comic Con this year. In both cases, I commend the cosplayers who take their costumes seriously. Though you have to be eccentric to go that far! :P

Well done sir. If you had hair and you were a little darker you would be rhodes.

I know he said he loved it but that has to be a pain to wear, sweating constantly, difficult to walk, but he soldiers on for us.

I would LOVE to costly..but I don't have the much a imagination or engineering in me to do it. But I would like to think I would try to shoot for this level of coolness!

Those armor suits have got to be the hardest costumes to make. Great job!

YEAH EAST COAST AVENGERS!

His suit looks awesome, but I don't understand why you'd put all that effort into a costume and still leave your chin exposed. That really broke the illusion for me.

Wow very intricately detailed! Absolutely love it! What a trooper in the way of cosplay!

This is a true honor . Thank you to Sara and the amazing crew@ ComicVine, for a great video piece.

I love cosplaying Iron Man 2.0 aka War Machine. I try to get it as close to what it looks like from the comic,so not every part will be 100% but close enough .

Thank you guys for ALL the comments and the support, that means I gave you something to talk about!!!

The best is yet to come!!!!

I appreciate the THOUGHT of cos-play, all of the art, imagination, and creativity that go into it, but I don't think I'd ever participate. It's like adult Halloween or a daytime costume ball and I've never done Halloween costumes and what not. That being said, I respect those, like my man here, who do a realistic job of replicating the character (within their means), not just turn themselves into a parody of the character. It takes drive to do that...especially when people WILL criticize it both outside AND inside of the genre.

@reecesearch: Thanks for your honest words.

#18 Posted by THESMOKE007 (4 posts) - 6 months, 28 days ago - Show Bio

@TheBestEver: The one thing , I've learned is that it's not going to be exactly from the book, but it's close enough for me. The main thing is I got your attention.

I have got to learn how to make costumes O_O

@Xanni15: I really like my armor, it's a lot lighter and it's not hard to walk in. It's very comfortable to wear. Thanks for the support.

I wanna COSPLAY!

I knew a kid in college who I'm pretty sure made an awesome Iron Man costume out of papier mache. I know he did Master Chief from Halo and it is one of the best cos-play costumes I've ever seen, but I'm 99% sure he did Iron Man, too.
