For some, cosplay is all about becoming the character they're portraying through costume and attitude. But a select segment of the cosplay community tries to create perfectly accurate interpretations of the source material.

These amazingly accurate cosplayers are sticklers for detail and strive for realism, and the end result is a cosplay dream come true!

Whether they're trying to bring the character to life in a realistic way, like this Piper from Fallout 4 cosplay by ladylorethia.

Sometimes a cosplayer starts dressing like a character because they already looked just like them, such as this Kaylee from Firefly cosplay by AskKayleeFrye

While other cosplayers dream of bringing the character to life no matter how difficult or ridiculous, like this cosplay of William Birkin's second mutated form from Resident Evil 2 by Gai
