Cosplay Feature: Shiro Cos as Melinoe!

So I knew I was gonna get insanely addicted to Hades 2 but I wasn't expecting to essentially clear it all out a little over a month after it released. Having done so much in the first game it didn't take long for me to get back into the rouge-lite groove and do run after run to progress its story. So naturally that led to me wanting to find cosplayers that portrayed the main antagonist Melinoe. Shiro Cos was someone I came across early on as I was searching throughout Instagram with the game's hashtag attached and man does this look freaking awesome. To kick things off, the 3D files for some of the pieces like her weaponry in ADDITION to the killer shoot location were provided by cosplay collective  The Dangerous Ladies ! Shiro has a short bob cut blonde wig with a small leaf crown placed on top. That crown also has a silver moon symbol placed directly in the middle of it. This to help signify Melinoe's placement as one of the Silver Sisters. You'll notice that the ...

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!
