Commander Shepard Comes to Life in Epic Mass Effect Cosplay
Cosplayer Freya Willia spent two years crafting an epic recreation of the female Shepard's battle armor from Mass Effect 3.
While gamers, in general, had oodles of issues with the ending to Mass Effect 3, probably the most consistent complaint was that it just wasn't a worthy close for a protagonist as awesome <a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/133659-Its-Commander-Shepards-Birthday-In-140-Years>as Commander Shepard. <a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/tag/view/bioware>Bioware, of course, would go on to patch the ending, adding in content to try and rectify the injustice perpetrated against everyone's favorite Spectre. Sadly, even with the ending expanded, many were still leftfeeling disappointed. Luckily for them, the world contains people like Freya Willia to help cheer them up with her incredible cosplay.
Willia, in a set of pictures posted to her Punished Props. As a finishing touch, she then constructed her own omni-blade from plastic. The costume overall took her nearly two years to complete.
We feel safe in saying that the end result was definitely worth the work. Willia's take on Commander Shepard looks almost uncannily like the default female character as portrayed in <a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/5497-Mass-Effect-3>Mass Effect 3. In fact, we'd go so far as to say that some of her images could almost be mistaken for official promotional materials if you didn't already know what you were looking at. If you'd like to learn more about Willia's construction process, you can check out <a href=http://www.therpf.com/f24/femshep-n7-armor-valkyrie-rifle-omniblade-mass-effect-3-a-159296/?highlight=femshep>this forum thread here. In the mean time, take a look at her work and let us know what you think.
