Lady Punisher

Lady Punisher Cosplay made entirely by me

I have always loved the Punisher ever since I first checked out the comics when I was little. I loved Frank Castle's story and how he was a vigilante crime fighter and had this toughness about him, and I am usually drawn to cosplay people that have a twisted background, or fundamentally interesting dent in their past that makes them tick the way they do. (I like the demented in a sense) I also love that the Punisher always had heavy artillery with him, which makes him carry such awesome guns. I tried to get similar looking airsoft guns for this shoot, possibly someday the real thing.

The belt was the hardest part of this cosplay because although it doesnt look like it, the belt is made up of 40+ pieces of extra pieces of marine vinyl that were carefully layed out and cut accordingly, since I wanted to keep it true to comic book form. I was inspired by Kotobukiya's beautiful bishoujo figures that I collect, so I cut my wig in a somewhat sexier cut, and made the boots to have a 70's cut to them. The fabric I chose almost mimics the look of a wetsuit, which is almost like a Gore-tex material, super hard to find but picked up enough to finish this look. I will be posting pictures of how I made the whole outfit soon Makeup and hair styling etc: All my own
