Next to Shepard the character of Tali in the Mass Effect universe has to be one of my favorites and I have to say that this cosplay of the character by Ayimera is one of the best I have seen yet. This is what she had to say about her fantastic re-creation: This was definitely a collaboration costume. I purchased the visor from Taylor at Crabcat Industries and handed it off to Will at WM Armory to create the helmet. My friend, Meredith (who is also an amazing cosplayer), created Tali’s signature wrap/hood as a wedding present (best present ever), and Ammnra Creations did the omni-tool. I put it all together, created all the detail bits (belt, harness, boots, gloves, etc), installed a fan and tint in the helmet, and debuted the costume at Katsucon ’13! This great cosplay was caught on film by photographer Mike Kowalek. Enjoy the rest of the great images. via Fashionably Geek Mass Effect’s Tali Done With Beautiful Cosplay is a post from: Winextra Follow us on Twitter: @WinExtra and on Facebook: WinExtra Fans Related posts: Game of Thrones cosplay where Arya Stark is all grown up and beautiful – with tattoos to Talk about doing Skyrim cosplay perfectly – and beautiful Oh Man This Is One Sexy Nightwing Cosplay What Goes Into Becoming Commander Shepard – Project Cosplay [Video]
