Cosplay Feature: Laney Feni's Supergirl!

  Photo by Maze Studio The last time I shared cosplayer Laney Feni, it was via her amazing Fem Aquaman cosplay she did a few years ago. Originally for today's piece I wanted to gush over how stellar she looks in her Post-Apocalyptic version of Supergirl but that led me to sharing with you another version that's more of the character's classic look. If you were to dive into her cosplay portfolio, Laney has definitely cosplayed Kara Zor-El numerous times but this version draws heavy inspiration in both the design and feel of the old Zack Snyder take on Superman. Between this classic design and the other variant I mentioned earlier, the only difference really boils down to pants and the cape's use. We'll get to that later of course! For starters, Kara's look here consists of a long sleeved tank top like piece and pants with the midriff being shown. I'm pretty sure that this is Laney's natural hair too which really is perfect for Supergirl!

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. As I mentioned yesterday I have a feeling that I can get these outfits pretty much done over the summer. I have about 5 items to buy with 4 of them already in my sights/I know where to get them.

The beginning of the week had me constructing and painting Ninja Stars for Greninja as his signature move is known as Water Shuriken. You can see the process below in the pictures as I primed and sanded them down with the final addition of Blue Acrylic. It was very time consuming as after I had done the initial build, I found more Worbla scraps that were much smoother therefore made for better material and overall a much cleaner look.

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
