The fine folks at Artyfakes have created a set of armor based on Kitiara's dragonrider gear.
They're working on a 16ft version of Kitiara's dragon, too.
Amazing work.

Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver). |

| An impressive costume, but I can‘t help thinking that it‘s inspired more by Blizzard than by Dragonlance cover art. |

It might seem that way, Ayrik, but the artificers have definitely captured the basic design of Kitara's armour as illustrated superbly by the Master Elmore.
This is a fantastic effort, and I wouldn't mind seeing Artyfakes try their armoury hands at forging Lord Soth's definitive armour-style, as Eilserus suggested. Or even that worn by the infamous Ariakas.
Oooo! Oooo! Solamnic plate armour. Now that would be something to see.  |

That is freaking awesome. I'd really love to see how they do this. I enjoyed watching that syfy series "heroes of cosplay". It really makes me wish there were more conventions in my area. |

| I don't know if it's this screen but that looks like a CG model to me. |

It does look CG. I have no way of knowing of the image was touched up or not.
The Artyfakes Facebook page has some photos and videos of their costume making process. That dragon they're building is quite a project. |
Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver). |

| Why do you think it looks CG? PS anyone else thinking they should focus their efforts on the Alias armor? :P |

It looks CG to me as well but is still an awesome display. Count me in on the Lord Soth and Solamnic armor as well (would love to see a Knight of the Rose costume).
Oh wow that teaser vid was friggin' kewl. |
I have a dream that one day, all game worlds will exist as one. |
