VIKING/NORSE WOMEN ALL OF THAT GENRE NOW HAS BECOME 'COPLAY' JUST LIKE THE STEAMPUNK ERA...not a lot of leggings being worn...
here is a short nordic sisterhood branded leggings vid:

THE AXE LADY IS A 'KILLER'....SHES LETHAL WITH THAT THING

AGAIN I DONT THINK THIS TECHNICALLY QUALIFIES AS 'COPLAY' SINCE THE CHARACTER IS MORE OF A MADE-UP FANTASY.....
very well done however full set with large photos: https://www.brownlotusphotography.com/b ... asysession
i will only show a few photos


and i can assure you LOREEN wasnt born with pointed ears as her model-kartei page shows [shes 24 5' 6"] https://www.model-kartei.de/portfolios/ ... 08/loreen/

i am sure our moderator has ventured onto purpleport; UK's version of north america's modelmayhem equivalent...europeans have model_kartei...
lycrafan2004 probably knows about it but i am sure both of you havent been on it lately

there is a way to search specific categories [as in leggings, catsuits, coplay ect...] not so with modelmayhem. purple port calls it: Tags

anyways...i just found this number
Added 3 weeks ago by Mick Egan Albums: Cosplay
2 more photos available besides these at: https://purpleport.com/portfolio-image- ... ?id=119772




other photos from purpleport's coplay search:


personally i have set my bookmark as: https://purpleport.com/images/search#tag=leggings
but instead of leggings you can set it for coplay, catsuits, any topic and you can add more actually to include several instead of just one like i do.

this isnt a category i prefer to search since this is our moderators forte...i have respected that since before my arrival here...i am sure i would find more if i dedicated the time...i've got too many topics on my plate but if i run across something good i dont mind collecting the photos and 'intruding into this or the other catwoman thread' and presenting my findings....i even have sent links to him in the past so that hes the one to show the photos, not me....this is his specialty [wheelhouse] and not mines....

and just saw this photo on model-kartei...for those of us unfortunate boys who are kept by women in dungeon cells its nice to see that our guards are following 'corona virus' protocols:

shes: https://www.facebook.com/ModelNephalim/

and i will post on the youtube section a behind-the-scenes narrated photoshoot that i am sure my friend lycrafan will enjoy much more so than i since i dont speak a word in german using this very same model

LOOKS LIKE MY LADY HAS TO GET OUT FROM BEHIND THE SECLUDED DARK MANOR HOUSE WALLS AND CATCH SOME SUNSHINE AND FRESH AIR.....

SHES FROM Košice is the second university town in Slovakia, after Bratislava

IVE SHOWN HER IN THE PAST MOSTLY IN LEGGINGS:

sleek and slender! Nice Butt!!!

thank you lycrafan......



here the big thing is the video....''....is back at his craft of creating comic books. His most recent shoot took place this past weekend and featured Emily as the super villain: M-Mimic. Check out the video over at our channel to see her background profiling of her character - plus her super cool outfit and boots !''
from leviticus fashions they sell custom boots; thats their main thing but have expanded into modeling, comic books, and produce videos all in Pennsylvania


Beautiful fashion model and stylist, Emily, introduces one of the super villainess characters in Ryan's upcoming comic book story : M-Mimic. We shot this quick vid intro in the green screen studio before her acting debut as she explains a bit about her role in the plot!

very rare to see A convention attendee place his hands/grope a 'coplay'-wearing incredibles adult entertainer/host.....only at exxxotica conventions
shes @alex cole https://twitter.com/alexxxcoal




[ photos from flikr ]

and for those of you in the new orleans area and a saints fan....enjoy this one all suited up and ready for the start of the season



i am sure our moderator is shaking his head a bit as these gals are NOT EXACTLY the coplay type character backgrounds he envisioned being shown here on this thread XXX-conventions were not on his mind as the places to take pics from I THINK...............

I DONT THINK THESE HAVE BEEN EVER POSTED....its from: https://classy-glamour.smugmug.com VERY VERY large photos 2 to 17 mb originals more at that link but you need to search for them [hint try the theme shoots but pics are all over] [gifyu.com hosting site can handle up to 50mb pics and it took almost 2 minutes to get these 'few' to upload]

re-enter the Matrix. Own #TheMatrix Resurrections NOW and watch instantly.
on the promo instagram photo:


one of the actresses is @karenscarlet1 and so enjoy this matrix coplay and yes the matrix is now a coplay character....so much so that there are gals on instagram and thats their coplay...shes also known for other characters with the pointed ears and black widow....much more at her instagram
CORRECTION actually shes just a coplayer: https://www.geeknative.com/132658/victo ... he-matrix/

heres a short backstage video as trinity: https://www.pixwox.com/post/6839466821133367585617/

and finally another much shorter behind the scenes on a shoot: https://www.pixwox.com/post/6822195063356567122115/

not a topic i search....but for the benefit of our moderator and anyone else interested i will 'collect' a few pics and mention the link to more....

MCM Comic Con London, October 2022 and May '22 {author's photostream is ALL dedicated to this topic}
https://www.flickr.com/photos/146835860 ... 0303387351
so i will post some of his most recent work and you all welcome to check out the rest....


photos available as originals in 4400x6500 pixel sized and he does what i call minisets so that you can collect several instead of just one single photo as well....and its excellent if you are more inclined to the european 'steampunk/knighthood/gothic' type characters to augment your collections. and finally he identifies the instagram id of the gal pictured so THIS IS REALLY A GREAT STARTER RESOURCE TO WHOEVER WANTS TO DEDICATE TIME TO THIS TOPIC....SO IF YOU ARE INTO COPLAY YOU CANT ASK FOR A MORE HELPFUL FLIKR LINK TO GET YOU STARTED.....for any guests and newbies who would like to join and post but dont know how to get started finding pics and a topic:

[COMMENTARY] so as part of my personal experience i will share briefly how i started posting.....many many years ago at a now defunct forum the more popular topics were taboo for me since i couldnt compete with wiley veterans at a extremely competitive forum who had hogged 'all' of the few links back at the infancy of the internet. SO there was like a one page wetsuit thread that was like an afterthought totally abandoned and i said let me start posting there...well 4+ years later it was like a top 5,6 or 7 most viewed thread and i had made a name for myself....slowly i started posting in those competitive threads since i had built enough links and sources from that wetsuit thread...so when i landed here 14 years ago i was that wiley veteran to this forum...but i assure you i was a newbie with zero experience way back when and had to find a (obscure) topic/thread and develop over the years since there was no way in hell to compete with the big boys at that time...so for any newbies this is a great starter topic with an excellent link to start your posting careerAHH YES OUR SENIOR MODERATOR HERE WAS one of those 'wiley' veterans at that long ago defunct forum; yes he was an insider there when i 'walked in as a newbie'... he can verify my story to some extent back then the newbies had a 'testing period' where you had to post within a certain period of time or you were 'deleted' from their rosters...SO YES I PASSED THAT 'TESTING BY FIRE' AND SLOWLY OVER THE YEARS MADE MY PRESENCE VERY WELL KNOWN TO HIM AND THE PRINCIPALS IN THE WETSUIT SECTION AND THEN INTO THOSE 'TABOO' SUBJECTS LIKE CATSUITS AND LEGGINGS...AND as they say the rest is history

(no not) a favorite of our moderators, the 'steampunk' variety of coplay... almost exclusively european and very difficult to find leggings in this style of coplay but with this particular british photographer its right up his wheelhouse:

lets open up this year by posting in this section for a change; ITALIAN https://www.flickr.com/photos/maxxxmat/ Massimiliano Giomi coplay is his specialty
''Sono appassionato dalla fotografia dal 1997, quando ho preso la prima compattina, poi piano piano sono passato alla reflex prima analogica poi al digitale, attualmente ho una Canon Eos, con la reflex faccio foto a tutto quello che mi capita a tiro"

i will do a number of sampler photos...........he has them in 'sets' sort of by dates....8 pages worth of photos going back to 2008; back then he did events and modeling instead of coplay....well worth a visit and i have had his bookmark for a long time so if you are into coplay its worth chcking it out:


AHH YES STEAMPUNK IS A FORM OF COPLAY ITS JUST THAT OUR MODERATOR DOESNT CARE MUCH FOR IT SINCE THEY RARELY DRESS UP IN LYCRA....but its in Italy and this steampunk is of european origin





he even did motor shows or 'grid girls' many many years ago heres a photo from the 2011 Bologna auto show:

so no hes no boloney

'ATOMICHEART' COPLAY......when i 1st saw the photos it looked like a fencing type faceshield and i even asked myself wheres the sword? ...i then saw #atomicheart AND THEN I REALIZED IT:

SOURCE: moscow based photographer @stark_twr
Russia's first cosplayers #atomicheart #twins #atomichearttwins #ballerina twins @freedomcheer @skorpion_ka
--looks to be a 100% russian-invented coplay--


-note i also included a few photos of the twins from their respective instagrams-

ahh! theres a short 15 second :

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
other pics:

whats with the biker chicks riding around in power ranger coplay outfits?????

not one but two different gals into it [had it been just one i would not have bothered to post it here] AHH with videos to boot:
@xeniar6 from germany i think and @mrs_cbr from sandiego
https://www.picnob.com/post/6862143352546257491214/
https://www.picnob.com/post/6846392569175449406426/
https://www.picnob.com/post/6836373323147136136245/


both suits look identical except for the color...pure coincidence i think that they both are into riding motorcycles...COPLAY BIKER CHICKS....I AM SURE THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THEM AROUND BUT NOT ENOUGH TO HAVE THEIR OWN THREAD .... I WOULD THINK NOT; but at this pace who knows
found them @fueldolls more info and a couple more photos: https://www.picnob.com/post/6832404264442136461117/

''It was originally a Totally Spies costume. Some millennials may still remember the show. But with the motorcycle helmet I look more like a power ranger''

[NOT EXACTLY] the coplay/comicon characters that you expect...these are creations of sci-fi comicon type outfits that DONT EXIST ....for more please visit the following links where i saw these:
https://500px.com/p/phoneographer?view=photos M Koleosho chicago
https://500px.com/p/reinhexodius?view=photos Naz Exodius indonesia
you can tell you are doing pics in INDONESIA due to the habib a lot of muslim population in that country.

NOW THIS 500PIX PHOTOGRAPHER DOES DO COPLAY THAT EXISTS.....in fact his entire link is dedicated to coplay he is out of coppenhagen: https://500px.com/p/nikonpetercosplay?view=photos
AND with every pic he names her instagram link so you or our moderator can get more pics from each and every gal; excellent for searching this topic

excellent source of photos for our moderator or anyone else interested in finding photos:

https://women-in-costumes.tumblr.com/archive
usually tumbler type photos tend to be widely circulated but for the purposes of this forum a lot of what you will find there is new.....and i am sure that even for avid collectors of cosplay you are likely to find something new as most of what i saw is recent by the month.....not my 'cup of tea' in terms of categories; so i will let others post from here.....just glad to find/name the source for others to use....

-the ONLY reason i posted is because it was on that front page-

my local community newspaper has an article on adi rodrigues a locally based coplayer...

source: https://www.miaminewtimes.com/arts/meet ... 3-17255743 June 30-July 2, 2023 @ Miami Beach Convention Center.

''Adi Rodrigues focuses mainly on the content creation side of cosplay.....
like Miami resident Adi Rodrigues, the co-host of the cosplay contests at this year's Supercon, focused on the content-creation side. When she isn't working as a real estate agent, the former personal trainer dresses up as various superheroes for her 100,000-plus followers on TikTok and Instagram.
"It's almost a full-time job," says Rodrigues (AKA the Super Adi) of cosplay. "I take a lot of my own photos. I edit my videos. I do make money on it, but I have to reach out to people. Opportunities come from networking. If you're not involved, people don't know who you are. You have to stay up to date with trends. I do a lot of work with [DC Comics], so I have to stay up to date with what's going on with DC. If I don't know, I'm not going to get the invite."
DC invited Rodrigues to appear at the Miami premiere of The Flash in May dressed as Supergirl alongside actress Sasha Calle who plays the superheroine in the film...."

photos from the paper article online and other sources such as instagram ect....@thesuperadi

yes there's SO much content on instagram twitter youtube facebook to name a few it's OVERLOAD

Looks like the old sooperhero content is back online here: https://www.deviantart.com/villainofspand

ITS GOOD TO SEE THE ORIGINAL STAR TREK SERIES type coplay making a bit of a comeback...
sources: https://www.fotocommunity.de/photos/startrek https://greatfon.com/v/zelda.cosplay.tantchen https://calvinscanadiancaveofcool.blogs ... ackie.html https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Cl ... RS&first=1 https://www.bing.com/images/search?view ... edIndex=17


AHH YES SIR...THE FISHNET _ph ADD A LITTLE EXTRA SEXYNESS that is sure to please SOME OF US GUYS-WHO LOVE THE FISHNETS...NOT SURE they were worn back in the 1960's original star trek crew...

the hairdo or wig is vintage '60s...i dont recall fishnets being worn....havent seen an episode in decades though....


if any of you are looking for an extensive collection of the series [originally produced in the 1960's] i did 2 HUGE posts a number of years ago....you can search for them on this thread...

for our moderator: https://www.fotocommunity.de/fotograf/jiin/958693 2500+ photos of all sorts of coplay ALL of it coplay and by himself so 100% guaranteed that there are no repeats/copied stuff from elsewhere

10+ hours after i posted...another decent set: https://www.nerdtabulous.com/single-pos ... trek-girls

its interesting how they got some things spot on as it relates to the future now closing in on 60 years after this series debuted
they were working on lasers back then so the thought of transporting people and the phaser did not quite work out. THEY were spot on regarding the flip phone cell phone that was called 'comminicator'. Another thing that didnt quite work out was the tricorder...we have laptops now so that worked out except what the tricorder was supposed to scan things like an x-ray wasnt quite exactly....they did have a mini tv type screen so at least that was on point...so yes certain things in the tricorder worked in the future but not as envisioned on the show....








tricorder looks like a portable tv...to go out on A PICNIC OR THE BEACH AND STILL WATCH YOUR FAVORITE FOOTBALL TEAM
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT 10/26 TO ADD STEAMPUNK COSPLAY which IS a form of coplay....NOT OUR MODERATOR'S FAVORITE. very european problem is they almost never wear leggings.

NOTE THE IS REAL NOT a stuffed or freeze dried one; i dont think ive ever shown one that isnt real.












they sometimes do use leder and _PH so that the only saving grace:

SHES ACTUALLY A BIKER GIRL AND THATS WHERE I WAS GOING TO SHOW HER UNTIL.....
I SAW THAT SHE WEARS A COPLAYS SPIDERGIRL TYPE SUITS IN PUBLIC PHOTOSHOOTS....
from madrid spain @_nhurya the other gal in the photos is @alba_stunt for reference














very unusual to find both a coplayer and a motorcyclist biker girl all in one package.....about a year ago i did post a gal who was a 'minor' coplayer but she modeled around her personal car i even showed a video but since it was only a couple of photos only i posted that in the grid girl section....so not the 1st time i see this

15 second video throw-in: https://www.pixwox.com/post/6850692515243234401272/
by the way she participated at https://www.wowhead.com/news/blizzcon-2 ... hts-335953

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A LITTLE HEADS UP...FOUND A PHOTOGRAPHER Yasuhiro_Nomura_photography FROM
WHO PHOTOGRAPHS 🏍 BIKER GIRLS OVER THERE.....I WILL BE SHOWING THE JAPS IN THAT SAME 'MO' THAT YOU ALL ARE USED TO IN THE GRID GIRL SECTION ....THAT IS if theres a motor bike as a prop then the model qualifies as a grid girl....COVID as you all know DECIMATED the traditional grid girl shows.................here are a couple of pics so you guys get a taste for pure Japanese biker girl action that now i will remake as 'grid girls'...i will post some in the asian section as well....the gals you will see however are LEGIT JAP biker gals JUST NOT agency "GRID" PROMO GIRLS
