Cosplay Feature: RiderCGA's King Daredevil!

Photo by Chazzy Baragiola The combination of being snowed in from the blizzard this past week PLUS being hooked hard into Cyberpunk 2077 made this post about a day late. Apologies for the delay but let's get started! I came across RiderCGA's awesome Daredevil during my collection of MAGFest pics so this is probably the last one for that specific convention. As you'll see from the images I found, Rider has a really awesome look/take on the Man Without Fear. Further research indicates that this is known as King Daredevil and is the title Matt Murdock took during a run back in 2022! Starting from the top, you can see a lot of red and black went into this look for the character. The top includes a red hood that hides just about the top of the mask the character is well known for. Small peek at the horns too!

Cosplay Feature: The Amazing Makeup of It's Raining Neon!

One cosplayer I had the pleasure of finally meeting at NYCC this year was DeAnna Davis. On the internet she's mainly known by her page name of It's Raining Neon! On that Saturday she was wearing her Mara Jade Skywalker from the extended Star Wars Universe created in the books. DeAnna makes incredible outfits ranging from a World of Warcraft Death Knight to characters such as Black Widow and Catwoman. I wasn't able to pick a favorite outfit of mine to show but instead I also remembered she's absolutely incredible in makeup.

One of the albums on her Facebook page is devoted to close up shots of her face showcasing the makeup which makes her look like one of the characters she either has cosplayed or hasn't. Let me tell you that these are SPOT ON! Some of them Final Fantasy characters like Ultimecia to ones she's tackled before like Mad Moxxi from Borderlands 2. Some of these shots make me wish DeAnna would just go ahead and create the rest of the cosplay because she would look so amazing in it!

Ultimecia from Final Fantasy 8
I definitely am interested in knowing what materials Neon uses to capture the look of these characters. Makeup is definitely one of her strong suits and I hope she does something like this again in the near future! Below are some other personal favorite shots of other makeup shots she did!
