From Vampbeauty (Linda Le) on her
Deviantart page..
This image was based on of course being a loyal obsessed Xmen fan growing up and pretty much wanting to be Psylocke ( If I was a dude it would be Wolverine ). I took a stab at it in 2009 and pretty much wanted to redo it since I wanted to pay homage to the artist Jim Lee.
The outfit needed to be made out of something other that spandex since Psylocke's outfit is most def. not a spandex material, unlike my other cosplays. This needed to be something that was skin tight, and also fitting in the right areas which spandex doesn't do majority of the time and is rather cheap in appearance.
I grew out my hair for about 3 years and waited to get it to Psylocke's length, and went through an insane process of coloring it myself, it will be up soon on my website. I didn't want to mess up all the work with a the use of a wig, it'll totally lose her hairstyle like in the comics.
The belt was custom made using rubber and several other pieces, as well as the outfit is made out of latex.
Now that is dedication. I am so happy that Vampbeauty is not a dude , and chose to pose as Psylocke. Be sure to check out the rest of her work at her Devianart page, link above.
