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 !

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! ^_^
