Well here it is, my Colonial Marine "Dwayne Hicks" Cosplay. This has been my most elaborate (and expensive) cosplay yet. It took forever to cut out the Armor pieces from hard plastic, then we hand painted it which also took awhile.
I think it turned out well for my first time making cosplay armor!

I was Hicks while my Girlfriend was Ripley.
I'm very happy how it turned out and I learned a lot while making it.
I have plans to make another at some point in the future, and hopefully a better one at that! lol
But I thought you guys would enjoy this for now.

A Bonus is that Timothy Zahn thought my cosplay was cool and we sat and talked about the movie Aliens, and how cool the Colonial Marines were!

SSGT Ra'id Al-Hamid, an Islamic but actually pretty chill MP who will absolutely not be having the pork meal, thank you.
