Original post here. These images were researched by Bacchus at ErosBlog as part of the “Γ commission.” They were originally published at Hedonix as “Γ 009 – Steampunk Tinkerbell Cosplay. Here is Bacchus’s research:

These images come originally from a post at EPBOT, where Jen writes about her visit to Megacon 2013 in Orlando, Florida:

I fangirled all over Steampunk Tinkerbell here, because I follow the maker of this costume, Firefly Path, on Facebook, and saw a few preview pics just the day before. If you love gorgeous costumes as much as I do, then you really should be following JoEllen’s work. As you can see, it is stunning. (This isn’t JoEllen in the pic, by the way; she’s just the one who made the entire costume, from boots to wings.)

The model in these pictures is Madeline Masquerade, a Vancouver model and cosplayer whose Facebook page features another shot of her in this Steampunk Tinkerbelle costume as her FaceBook avatar. The page also features this photo of her in the costume. On her Tumblr blog, Madeline strives to correct the Tumblr attribution-stripping one of the photos suffered:

Steampunk Tinkerbell Cosplay

Fabricator: Firefly Path

Cosplayer/Model: Madeline Masquerade

Photographer: EPBOT

I’ve been seeing this photo going around multiple facebook pages and tumblrs with no credit to the model and/or fabricator. A few blogs have even gone so far as to remove the photographer’s watermark. I thought I’d repost it with proper credit, as stealing images is not cool.

I agree. Stripping attribution is not cool. That’s why I pay Bacchus to put it back!
