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: Meagan Marie's Gabrielle Belmont!

Today I want to feature a very awesome lady named Meagan Marie. Perhaps you may have heard of her whether it be from her time writing for the magazine Game Informer, the outstanding cosplays she makes, or the fact that she's a part of Crystal Dynamics' media team. The name of that company should sound familiar cause not only is it a part of Square Enix, but it's also the company responsible for the widely successful Tomb Raider reboot that was released a few months back! So yea Meagan is kind os awesome. Truth be told I sort of did see her at PAX East this year as she was working the Tomb Raider booth, however it didn't occur to me until after I got home in which case I thought "oh sh*t THAT WAS MEAGAN?!" I knew she looked familiar. It sucks cause that was the only day I went that year so I'm hoping to see and formally meet her sometime next year at a convention.

Ok on with the cosplay! The outfit I wish to showcase today is Meagan's Gabrielle Belmont which is essentially a female Gabriel Belmont from the well known series of Castlevania! I mean just look at it! That's some really extravagant fabric/leather she has on. The embroidery/pattern design on them look very pretty. Plus the gauntlets were crafted out of Worbla which seems to be a favorite when it comes to making armor and weapons (trust me guys it's really effective). The photos shown here really capture the look and feel that Meagan was going for when creating this cosplay.

In addition to the outfit, she also crafted one of signature weapons of the Castlevania franchise, a Holy Cross with the function of an extending tip that can be released, attached with chains and all that awesome stuff! I really do love the paint jobs that Meagan gave the armor pieces! She also included in the outfit other staple items such as knives and a bottle which I'm going to guess is supposed to be Holy Water? I hope you guys enjoy the photos I picked out below. :D
