Description These are armor pieces for a Tali cosplay (from Mass Effect) made of Organic Armor - an amalgam of latex, various textiles and acrylic paint. See the character here [link] This took about 3 months to make. Paul had to work out many engineering issues to make things comfortable and hang correctly through normal movement. It's tricky when the client lives 1000 miles away. Luckily I was about her size. It was a fun challenge (we love making custom cosplay pieces).

Ooh, yay, Mass Effect cosplay! I'd love to see the finished product, so please do post the pics! XD
Excellently crafted and very detailed. If I ever have money for a commission for cosplay, this is where I'll come.

Hi there, I'm still getting the hang of knowing where to look and respond on DA so apologies for taking so long. Thanks for your kind words.
This is the earlier Tali. Our customer is making the rest of the costume and, once she sends us pics of the full cosplay, I'll post them here. She's wearing it to AnimeNEXT this month.
The visor does have a slight purple tint. We cut down a "smoke" colored motorcycle helmet visor for it (broke one before getting it right).
We charged about 1500.00 for all the pieces. We would love to make another set.

Wow just wow that is brilliant, can't wait to see the end results if you were to further this.

Love it.

The only thing is that the visor should be purple tinted, but it still looks good as it is.

Damn that looks impressive, plus the mask is spot on!

Can't wait to see the entire getup with all the layers of cloth. So which outfit of Tali are you going to make, from ME or ME2?
