Great pictures. If you two are planning on dressing up for any events in the future, i'd love to tag along. I'm thinking of doing a DOW costume. Something that a person could walk in.. eating and a decent oxygen supply would be a plus. Some of those costumes look insane.

I can't see your game informer article from work, but congrats on getting the recognition. So are people discovering your pictures through LJ or flickr?

Flickr, as far as I can tell.

DOW seems to generate some amazing costumes but also very work intensive ones! I think it would be pretty cool to go as a DOW group.

I am partial to the Imperial Guard. Mostly because they are just normal men.. not genetically engineered giants or nifty elves with special powers or possessed by demons.. just normal men trying to fight the insanity and stay alive.

Bandit is a big Chaos fan, i would expect her to wear something covered in skulls, satanic symbols, and a healthy show of cleavage.

Envark would make a good Commissar i think. Large epaulettes, a sash, lots of gold trim, a giant hat, and of course his gun to shoot I.G. who are retreating in fear, hah. I think Commissars usually carry a saber too.

You are right though, any warhammer40k costume would be some tough hours of work. I looked to see what kind of ladies there are.. totally forgot about the Sisters of Battle. Some great costumes there.
