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: Cold Candle's Sonic the Hedgehog!


One cosplayer I've had the pleasure of getting to know shortly after I started is the super adorable Cold Candle. Hillary (her actual name) has a strong fondness/love for the Sonic the Hedgehog series, so much that she decided to cosplay him in the form known as a gijinka. If you remember from my previous posts and my actual interview with her, a gijinka is basically taking an animal-like character and portraying it as a human form. In fact, she was the person that I discovered this idea which led to my gijinka cosplays such as Meta Knight and soon to be finished Greninja. So how does Hillary make this Sonic her own?


For portraying Sonic, Hillary uses a white shirt with a blue plaid vest. Short short jeans and white stockings show the bottom and leg parts. Red shoes are also used as are white fingerless gloves. In other photos down below, the shoes are changed to Converse High Tops which fit perfectly. The tail and ears definitely stand out as they were made out of fleece material to give it that soft feel, they were filled with stuffing to give it more volume. The poses which Hillary makes in the photos below definitely emanate what Sonic is all about: speed, attitude and cool. The blue wig is very vibrant and looks great on her here. Though it wouldn't be complete without the little ring prop that she made for the cosplay. I'm hoping one day to meet her at a convention while wearing my Shadow cosplay which she helped out in designing it, she's making a Rouge cosplay at the moment so that's freaking awesome! Have a look at some more photos below :)
