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. There's a one piece portion that has some space opening up on both Moogs' front and back sides. Then it looks like the normal chest piece is separate based on how it's layered next to the ...

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 :)
