Cosplay Feature: SpookyMoogs Bikini Sonic!

Photo by Togith Photography It's the day after Christmas, winter has started and I'm ending the year with a bikini cosplay? No wait that sounds about right for me! I came across SpookyMoogs awhile ago when it came to searching for new people to share and her bikini take on the world's fastest hedgehog caught my eye, For starters, I love the wig choice being your standard fare with the long portions on the sides plus the cute little ears on the top. There's one shot you'll see later that really shows off the length of the wig extending out from the back. The ears are super small in their size & length. Best bet is she may have utilized the headband trick for having them stay in place. Then you get to the bikini portion itself which looks to be a mixture of 2 pieces. There's a one piece portion that has some space opening up on both Moogs' front and back sides. Then it looks like the normal chest piece is separate based on how it's layered next to the ...

Cosplay Feature: Nicole Marie Jean's Fem Vincent Valentine!

Another cosplayer who I've had the pleasure to talk with at some conventions is the lovely Nicole Marie Jean. She is mainly known for her Lady Bane cosplay straight from the last Nolan Batman movie. Since then she has created many amazing outfits using alternatives that save her a lot of money. Many of these outfits are gender bent of male characters since she is more attracted to male characters. Such characters include Cable, Shao Kahn, Punisher, even a humanoid Sonic the Hedgehog (which was when I initially found out about her and how we were working on similar outfits, her Sonic and my Shadow) Oh and Nicole is also known as the Raptor Queen based off something she calls "raptoring out" which is just making funny faces and not being afraid of who you are.

The outfit I am featuring today is one of my favorites of her, this being a Female Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy 7. This is because of two main things:

  • I love Final Fantasy
  • Vincent is one of my favorite characters in the game
She constructed the golden hand using Worbla as well as Vincent's signature gun Cerberus out of the same material with other items. The cape was also done right down to the tatters/holes near the end of the cape. The main outfit is also done with a corset and she looks absolutely amazing in it and I gladly was cheering her on when she encountered numerous issues such as the gun having to be remade. Take a look at the pictures below and see how cool this cosplay is! I also threw in a collage of progress photos she posted on her page.
