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.

Cosplay Progress: Making ALL THE THINGS

Over the past week, I've been putting out lots of cosplay progress photos for both Steampunk Nightwing and my Greninja Cosplay.

Final Look!


Here's how everything looks so far!

On Thursday my Steampunk Goggles came in. I traced out the goggles again on Worbla and created an outline to place on the silver outline that's around the lenses. On each end I made the sides as they look on Nightwing's Mask. After careful painting and cleaning, I'm really satisfied with how they came out. Now I just need to be careful walking around
