Epic Reinhardt Overwatch Cosplay Wins $15k at TwitchCon
Just look at this Overwatch Reinhardt cosplay which took the stage by storm at this year’s TwitchCon. It’s all kinds of awesome. I really don’t get how he made this thing. The costume is gigantic and clearly there must be some sort of stilts involved.
The creator of this impressive costume is Chad Van Wye from Hoku Props. As amazing as the still image above is, you need to see him moving around in it to get the full effect:
Apparently, Chad is missing an eye in real life. This allowed him to use a LED prosthetic that gave him that awesome glowing eyeball.
I would love to see some close-ups of the completed suit. I would also love to see the structure underneath that makes it so tall.

This is what success looks like on Twitch
Twitch is exactly what you make of it. Looking for some dating advice while a broadcaster drinks wine and plays Minesweeper? There's a channel for that. How about a corny sci-fi show about a guy sent back from the future to conquer video games befo...
TwitchCon made me a Twitch convert
I'm going to admit this right up front: I wasn't looking forward to covering the first-ever TwitchCon. Sure, I co-host our weekly Playdate broadcasts and absolutely adore talking with our community of regulars who show up three times per week to wa...
Everything Twitch does is for its community
