Behind the scenes cosplay: Lili from Tekken by Michelle Monique

Cosplay can be very good, or very bad. When it's the former, often a lot of time and effort is spent recreating the character's outfit and overall look to make it seem authentic. Michelle Monique posted a behind the scenes cosplay video for a Lili, of Tekken fame, which documents what it was like making this outfit and getting some models to wear it. This gives you an appreciation for how involved this process can be.

In the clip, she runs through buying and compiling the materials, along with documenting the poses and setup for the models who donned the apparel. Here are a few Photoshopped images of how things turned out, hit the jump to check out the video.

You can find more of Michelle Monique's work on her DeviantArt page linked above.

I think the girl who made the dress was way prettier.

pretty awesome work. First model doesnt really fit thou, second model isnt as pretty as the first one, but perfect after photoshop, and her pictures just have better poses.

#2 AFAIK, this doesn't even come close to PlayBoy's shooting, and I believe you agree PB is barely soft porn.
How would liking a model doing a pose with clothes on make you a pervert?
Kids don't even know what a pervert is...

It's not ok to have sexually provocative stuff but it is ok to have extremely violent things ?

@13, apparently so, see the post about NSFW mods for SCV. America's got it's priorities straight *sarcasm*. I'd say we should have less chimp and more bonobo.

Gorgeous girl and top notch costume.

Nice, I'm just glad it was an american model and not an asian like the 99% of cosplayers out there. They all look the same.

Photoshop is a godsend to women...thanks that lovely program women can have that goddess look they always dream of.

Cool to see how much work goes into these, maybe aspiring fashion designers should hit up the next convention in their town. Seems like great practice for coming up with your own stuff.

@goukifafa: "why not just type in "i am a pervert" on youtube..?"

If a frilled skirt and knee boots are what constitutes perversion to you, I think you haven't seen very much of the world.

Anyway, the girl who made the dress was cute.

Photoshop can make anyone look good. Good cosplay though. I hate it when cosplay models don't look like the character they are suppose to be.

That costume looks amazing and very well done. The model didn't do it justice at all. The girl that made the costume wad much prettier and would've made a better Lili if she was taller.
