Cosplay Feature: Lisa Mancini's Magik!

The Marvel Rivals cosplays keep on coming with various iterations of Magik done by cosplayer Lisa Mancini. Specifically, I have three versions that she's done over the last year or two since the cosplay was made & debuted. I myself am not too well-versed to the character so I'm mostly gonna be focusing on the outfit structure and how it's formed around Lisa. For starters, Magik's base costume starts off with a long platinum blonde wig with some wings added on top. Most likely this is done via a headband piece added in. Her main chest piece looks to be a tank top base in black with an armor chest piece layered on top. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms. There's also different pauldrons on the shoulders. One of which is smoothed out with what I believe is the X-Men symbol on one and the other is covere...

Cosplay Feature: Lisa Lou's Bayonetta!

For today I wanted to feature yet again the awesome cosplay work of Lisa Lou! This time I wanted to talk about one of her recent cosplays that of Bayonetta. This version is the updated look that she's been given as a result of the upcoming game Bayonetta 2 exclusively on the Wii U. I really love how crazy and extravagant this cosplay is (as you'll shortly see below), and I actually didn't know that Lisa was a fan of Bayonetta, granted I'm not since I have no interest in the game but it's still really cool!


Look at those patterns!! Plus I feel that the new hairstyle Bayonetta was given for this outfit looks amazing on her. I'll be as somewhat brief with how she made the cosplay but will include a link to the full write up she did on her deviantArt account :D. The earrings were crafted out of craft foam and the guns (which look so cool) consist of PVC pipes, craft foam for the etchings/details, insulation foam with it all covered with Worbla to make them look sturdy! The jacket consisted of Lisa's own drafted pattern and the things dangling down from it I assume are from craft foam as well.

The catsuit was made from spandex but it's really the photos I love from the photo shoot she had with this cosplay! The poses she makes show off the sassiness that Bayonetta is known for when she's off slaying demons and whatnot. More and more I get super excited that I'll be meeting her at PAX East this year (sorry if I'm repeating myself I'M JUST SO PUMPED). From the eye-wink to the way the glasses look, this cosplay really shows how talented Lisa is at crafting outfits while adding her own slight twist (this case the hair, which is in fact not a wig). I hope you guys enjoy the other photos I have to share!
