Beautiful prosthetics of particular interest to fan artists & cosplayers!

Sophie de Oliveira Barata is the principal artisan of these bespoke limbs, which are marketed as functional, decorative, and expressive — some combination of a neck brace and a tatoo.

These are amazing. It would be fascinating to watch the various prostheses being made.
