The process it took to create the Metroid prop is a bit more complicated and I can't remember exactly how she made it with what materials but I'm sure you can look around to find a write up she possibly did on making it? Vampy also created several more Metroids to sell off to people who were lucky enough to have the funds for. It's the photos here that really shine with amazing Photoshop manipulation, plus the outfit was used in a series of photos in a project known as The Wild Places which was created by cosplay photographer Anna Fischer. The project basically involved her and certain well known cosplayers traveling around the country to incredible areas to take breath-taking photos.
Vampy also created a second Samus cosplay known as the Justin Bailey outfit (I'm not too familiar with this one but it involves some kind of code created back in the early 90's for one of the games.) This outfit has Vampy sporting a green wig with boots and a one piece pink leotard as well as the famous Arm Cannon attached to one arm. This outfit was also a part of The Wild Places project. Just take a look at the photos down below and see how amazing this came out :D
