Day two of Dragon Con is in the bag, and cosplayers didn’t disappoint. The convention hosts a massive costume parade on Saturday each year and after walking the streets of Atlanta, cosplayers bring their biggest and best costumes into the Marriott (one of the host hotels) and stand around the public areas for photos. Actually, even the people who didn’t participate in the parade seem to congregate in the Marriott. Here are some of my favorite cosplays from day two of Dragon Con:
Fire and ice dragons
Katniss Everdeen
Landstrider-inspired creature or No Face
Maleficent
Not positive about this one – anyone recognize these characters?
World of Warcraft
Baymax
Meereenese master
Jaegers
Jinx

That is a Meereenese Master. The slaves did not have such lavish, or as much, clothing.
Thanks!
