Based off the drawing by Darwyn Cooke
Most importantly... Dave Stevens.
Who created the Rocketeer.
I know some of you thought this might be my original take on the rocketeer, it is not. This version was based on a story which was written and drawn by Darwyn Cooke for a published tribute of Rocketeer Stories by IDW.
I always wanted to cosplay from the Rocketeer and when I saw this I thought it was a clever take on the main characters and something I could do. Plus I would look silly in Cliffs Johdpurs.
. Everything on this costume is custom, even down to the buttons. There is easily over 100+ hours of work in this this costume. The rocket pack is based on the comic version not the movie version.If you love the movie, make sure to check out the original comic its based on by Dave Stevens. It's Just Amazing.
Excited to announce, I will be selling this Planet Comic con EXCLUSIVE limited Rocketeer print with Proceeds going to Hairy Cell Leukemia. This Print will be limited to 50, beautiful 11x17 glossy photo print, all signed and numbered for $15.
For those of you who aren’t going to be at the convention, the Rocketeer prints that don’t sell will be available online and when they are sold, out they are gone!
I will be at the booth 1009 throughout the weekend, mostly on Saturday and Sunday! Hope to see you there!

Hi Riddle!
Great Costume! I firmly believe you would not look silly in Johdpurs at all! Imagine yourself in a ruffled white blouse, high waisted Johdpurs, stilleto boots. This time, you are slinging your cool custom Rocketeer Jacket & Helmet over your slender arms. Set your rear Rocket Pack down on the ground behind your beautiful legs (which will immediately imprint a permanent phallic symbol on the brains of many admirers). For me, you'd still need to be holding that awesome Rocketeer Gun Prop. Keep creating. I luv your work!

If you find it truly convincing that someone would would wear stockings when putting on a jetpack (you can burn your legs genius) and going on adventures (and still be sensible enough to build a helmet to your specific needs) you might have a mental problem.
Open your eyes man, the sexyness has blinded your mind.
Also, where the hell would you put the gun? O.o

Truly convincing ROCKETEER GIRL THEME/COSPLAY/MODELLING.
lol...don't take everything you read, see or hear literally...
...and btw you totally miss the point - this is about sexyness!

This is possibly one of my favourites of yours. It's a fantastically unique perspective on an otherwise common cosplay. You've reinvented the iconic Betty Page rocketeer in one of the best ways possible. This is a testament to both your creativity and individuality that sets you apart from the crowd.
Fantastic job :]

Like many, I saw this on Heroes of Cosplay. After looking through your portfolio, I realized that I've seen your work before. I just never knew who "you" were per se. Now I know who to follow. Great job on this cosplay. It looked amazing on tv!
