I don't make it a habit of posting cosplay here, because there's lots of good game-related cosplay out there, and after all there's Japanator if you want to look at cosplay. The thing is though, I was browsing through my RSS feed and saw these photos posted over at Danny Choo, and it took me about 5 seconds before I realized that these photos were not in-game renders and instead of a real human being. WHAT THE HELL JAPANESE PEOPLE? HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
For those interested, this cosplayer's name is Kaname and he has done many insane costumes. He's actually a judge in the Anime Festival Asia Regional Cosplay Championship 2009. This could be a good thing because at least you don't have to compete against him if you enter. On the other hand, a guy that can pull of this costume is going to judge you. Yeah, you're screwed. Anyway, enjoy the gallery!

Very impressive.
But seriously, that is fantastic.
I find this to be almost as creepy as it is awesome.
Your secrets to cosplay, tell us them.
Thanks,

Attention to detail, plus, Japanese cosplayers don't eat. Period.
I spent the first five minutes trying process how this picture looks so perfect, the I realised that it's all in the lighting. Put this guy under a mostly sunny day outside of an anime convention with all the other...*ahem*...fans, and he'll look less rendery.
That said: Holy shit this guy has a lot of free time!
... was gonna URL that, but I'd need to get the link from mah friend. Some StarCraft tourney commentator gettin' kinda excited.
