Cardboard Superheroes By Jared Cain

I've talked about my love/hate relationship with cosplay before, but there are times when the ingenuity of the creators is just plain out worth admiring. Jared Cain is an artist of many talents, having had the chance to apply his artistic chops in a few fields. But what really fascinated me was his cosplaying idea of taking papercraft to the next level (Move over Minecraft).

Over the last two years, Jared has created two sets of cardboard costumes for Dragoncon. In 2010 he created a set of Avengers costume, and in 2011 a pair of Hellboy flavored cardboard costumes. What made these cardboard costumes stand out was that they were designed in autocad and created using a table top laser cutter. So much for using a box cutter, huh? A ton of care & effort has been put into these costumes and the amount of detail is stunning. I highly suggest you check these boxy masterpieces out after the break!
