Cosplay Feature: Holly Bean Cosplay's Sypha from Castlevania!

Photo by David Ngo By the time you're reading this, I will have just gotten back from my first convention of the year, PAX East! You can hear all about it in a brand new episode of CosplayBytes! For now, let's go back a little bit further to MAGFest from January for even more gaming related cosplays. Holly Bean Cosplay here brought along her cosplay of the devoted mage Sypha from the Castlevania anime adaptation aired on Netflix. By the time of this posting, the original has aired two seasons plus a spin off called Nocturne starring another Belmont Descendant. You'll notice that even if the cosplay is relatively simple in its design, I love both the pose work that Holly has done in addition to the edited photos that came out of this. Starting from the top, Holly is rocking a short orange wig with a variety of curls and wefts seen on her sides and from the back. Then you have the main top piece all in a light shade of blue and layered.

Cosplay Feature: Vampy Bit Me's New 52 Nightwing!

This week I want to show one of my favorite cosplayers the lovely Linda Le (or as she is known online as Vampy Bit Me). What I love about her is that it seems like she's constantly making new cosplays every week and they're all top-notch and incredibly well made. When I found out she was going to do one of my favorite superheroes (which just so happens to be hers as well) I was super excited to see the end results. When I first met Linda she cosplayed as the Arkham City version of Nightwing, I was able to get a picture with her while wearing my own Nightwing and it was so amazing!

Fast forward to a few months ago and Linda went on and tackled the New 52 design. It looks fabulous and she has every detail of his outfit right down to the sewn in lines. I'll be honest, as she was working on it and looking through her progress photos I became extremely intimidated and worried that my upgrades to Nightwing weren't going to look as polished as her outfit. But she happily encouraged me to keep going! Here are some awesome photos down below! :D Oh and I get to see her this weekend so that's exciting!
