Crykey: The Real-Life Nanosuit

He calls himself Master Le Cosplay. Going on this, he's probably right. This gentleman has built himself a frighteningly detailed Crysis Nanosuit, complete with weapons. Super-strength, speed and invisibility TBC. Though frankly invisibility's going to be nigh-on impossible looking like that.

Is it terrible that my first response when I saw the pictures of the finished item was "I wonder what on Earth the other people in that apartment block thought when they looked out their window and saw a futuristic gunman wandering around?"

"Took about 1 month of work time to finish," quoth he. "All of the suit muscle striations are hand crafted one by one, and sewn together. All working lights "cloak lights", and etc."
