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.

Cosplay Feature: Punished Props!

In keeping with prop makers this week I wanted to also feature an awesome prop maker named Bill Doran or as he goes on the internet as Chinbeard or by his business name of Punished Props! In addition to creating incredible cosplays such as Dragur Warriors from Skyrim, he also handles props and commissions whether they be guns from Mass Effect, or swords and shields! I'm always impressed by how accurate his props always come out and have wondered if one day I should get something commissioned from him should it ever be needed!

M-5 Phalanx from Mass Effect
From what I've learned, most of the guns are casted and set in resin. As mentioned above Bill and his wife created matching Dragur cosplays this year and no doubt they were a hit! Watching his videos and tutorials are very interesting and I'm definitely liking the setup he has for his workshop! Other props created were for other cosplayers such as a rifle and blade for Jessica Nigri's Naussica Cosplay, Xenoblade, and rifles from Starcraft, Halo, etc. I've included other pictures of finished props for you to gaze upon! Seriously if you ever need to have something commissioned, I would definitely recommend Punished Props! ^_^
