Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lenne!

Shot by Savanyahs Who the HECK is Lenne?!? I always love seeing Jess Blaze Cosplay continue the Final Fantasy rabbit hole she's in with all the cosplays she's done from the franchise. Tackling the mysterious singer from X-2 alongside her friend Kam C Cosplay (as Yuna) felt like a natural next cosplay for her to create. This also wasn't Jess' first foray into the many dress-spheres that the sequel focused on. For the originator of the Songstress job class, there's a whole lot of blue here which you see immediately with the main top piece and arm sleeves. Starting from there, you have essentially a blue vest that has lighter blue frills along the edges. The dress also has differing lengths for each side. One giving off a midriff look whereas the other extends longer past the black skirt.

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! ^_^
