Cosplay Feature: 16bitSami's Dancing Scyther!

Photo by Two Flame Studios Pokemon gijinkas never fail to impress me and 16bitSami's take on Scyther as a Scimitar Dancer immediately caught my eye in wanting to write about it. Done for Otakon earlier in the year, Sami states that she wanted to emulate the "dancer style vibes" she had for a previous take on Flareon. Not only that, but there are other elements taken from a Cowslip designed Scyther cosplay she did nearly 10 years ago :O. So if you want to let learn more about this gorgeous cosplay, let's dive in! Sami has a fantastic long green wig that has a sort of forest vibe with its shade. I'm not entirely sure if the armor piece directly on top of it is a leaf design of sorts but Sami has that rocking as additional headgear. Some of the pictures I have will also give a glimpse to a green hood that travels down her back with a gold trim on the edge. I really love the blend of clothing and armor that Sami utilized for this cosplay. When you get down to the main...

Cosplay Feature: iObject Cosplay and Law's Injustice Green Lantern

Today I want to feature another male cosplayer who both me and my Dad had the pleasure of chatting with back at NYCC this year. His name is Cliff but goes by his page name of iObject Cosplay and Law. Why the odd name you ask? Well the "Law" part has to do with him in fact being a lawyer and he has talked about issues in the cosplay community mainly regarding rights surrounding cosplayers who sell prints and making deals with their photographers selling the shots. Not only that but Cliff is also an awesome cosplayer and a very interesting guy to talk to!

Cliff alongside his partner Katie George (who you all know from here) made an Injustice cosplay with Green Lantern. What's awesome about this cosplay is the amazing paint job he gave certain parts to the outfit. Some of these pieces include awesome looking boots and a very detailed chest plate! And yes if you look at the above photo, that ring was rigged to work with an extremely thorough step by step process that Cliff outlined on his page!

Regarding the chest plate, it's made up of foam pieces hot glued together then primed and painted. Wiring was also involved to give the armor that light up feel. The ring itself was done by cutting holes in the glove and placing wires/devices through the glove attached to the bottom of the ring. The device is then activated to light up whenever Cliff makes a fist with his hand. This is about as brief as I can probably get and if you want to find out more information I have a link to his cosplay page down at the bottom of this page. The mask looks very well done and overall I love how the cosplay came out, it almost makes me a bit jealous that I could of done something similar regarding Nightwing's Injustice look that I wore at NYCC. I can only do so much with the budget I had though! Alongside another full shot of the completed outfit I also have work in progress pictures that Cliff posted up on his page that are really cool to look at!
