This is a collection of the awesome work of Sacha Goldberger who combines models, costumes and photography to create what I think are pretty cool and unique cosplay ideas and art.
Imagine your favorite comic book, movie, and fairy tale heroes and villains if they existed during the Renaissance. What might a painted portrait of them from those times have looked like?
Wonder no more. Photographer Sacha Goldberger was part of an event in Paris recently where these iconic characters—including Batman, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, The Hulk, Darth Vader, Catwoman, Princess Leia, Joker, Superman, Snow White, and others—were photographed with a decidedly old school look to them, creating a fascinating set of Renaissance painting-style cosplay images.
You can check out a bunch of the images below to see how some of your favorites would have looked in a different time.
It’s also worth noting that these are all said to be legit shots. No photoshop has been used to enhance them, even with the models in the Superman and Princess Leia images, who both look eerily similar to Christopher Reeve and Carrie Fisher.
More of the images can be found at Goldberger’s Facebook page, where you can also find images of the gallery where these pictures were hung on the wall to really make them look authentic.

It requires patience, and brilliance, but most importantly… a willingness to endure years of paper cuts!
But what he creates though is nothing short of the brilliance you’d expect from a true master.

Amazingly enough, TV crews eventually showed up to learn about this amazing art and Akira’s work spread even further than he could ever imagine. “That was the first time I even considered what I had been doing as art,” recalls Nagaya.

Nathan Shields is a former math teacher and current stay-at-home father of two. He enjoys teaching his young kids something new each day in the most unusual way: making pancakes. Nathan has made everything from sharks to parasites to seashells, and whether it’s truly an effective teaching tool or not let’s just say having a tasty pancake breakfast is never NOT worth the time.

A Man Takes A Single Rake to The Beach. And When You Zoom Out And See It…
He knows that it will all be temporary.
While making his beach mural explorations, he uses a rope as a guide so that he can make the geometric patterns.
When asked WHY he does it, Andre gives the best answer…
“The unanswerable question! Its fun. I get to be at the beach.”
Consider yourself lucky if you happen to stumble across one of his playa paintings, because it won’t be there long. 

By raking up the wet sand at low tide, he is able to make contrasting sand colors.
He even offers his services, helping people propose.
Or even teaching others to create these beachscapes as part of a team building exercise. 
According to Andres, it only takes a couple of hours once the tide is low enough to create the designs. 



Andres’ creations are simply stunning and knowing that these delicate creations are temporary somehow makes them even more beautiful.Filed under Humor and Observations
English based artist Simon Beck created these amazing works of art by stomping around French ski resorts with nothing but a pair of snowshoes.
“I made a work of art out of snow in my high school football field once. It was displayed on the news and I got suspended.”

Most of these drawings by Ramon Bruin seem relatively simple, but at the same time, because of their shadows and some intriguingly placed real-life props in the photographs, the sketched images appear to be almost magically leaving the bounds of the paper they’re drawn on…
