Cosplay Feature: Lisa Mancini's Magik!

The Marvel Rivals cosplays keep on coming with various iterations of Magik done by cosplayer Lisa Mancini. Specifically, I have three versions that she's done over the last year or two since the cosplay was made & debuted. I myself am not too well-versed to the character so I'm mostly gonna be focusing on the outfit structure and how it's formed around Lisa. For starters, Magik's base costume starts off with a long platinum blonde wig with some wings added on top. Most likely this is done via a headband piece added in. Her main chest piece looks to be a tank top base in black with an armor chest piece layered on top. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms.

Cosplay Feature: Rebecca Denise's Elizabeth

For this week's cosplay feature I have another talented lady from the SyFy show "Heroes of Cosplay" with an outfit that was shown in the last episode. Rebecca (Becky in the show) went and created an Elizabeth costume from the highly praised game Bioshock Infinite. In the photos I have down below, the fabric she used was very beautiful and I especially love how the wig looks on her. The corset has darkish blue accent lines throughout and the neck choker is made from lace material. I'm going to take a guess and say that the game was not out yet when she made this cosplay. That being because the brooch Elizabeth wears in the game is not present here. This is completely fine as most cosplayers when they see a newly revealed character, will want to create it well before the actual game is released.

What's also interesting is that for the episode this was shown in, Becky wanted to add a little prop for Elizabeth for the competition she entered it in. So she and her roommate Lance constructed the balcony of flowers shown in one of the first game trailers with the added effect of a pump which shot flowers out of it, just like in the trailer. I found it to be a very interesting idea and am very happy that it worked out for them. Here are some pictures of Becky in the cosplay sans the balcony prop!
