Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

The Photography of Adam Patrick Murray

 Lindsay Elyse, Jessica Nigri, and Angelica Dawn's Assassin's Creed 
For this next photography feature, I would like to direct your attention to Adam Patrick Murray from Arizona. Adam is known for taking lots of awesome portrait shots of cosplayers, models, famous "gamer girls" and whatnot. Models include fan favorites Jessica Nigri, Monika Lee, Lindsay Elyse and lots others I've mentioned before. Where as some like to photoshop effects on their finished photos, Adam is fully confident in his pictures and every single one of them turns out simply amazing. I've got some prints of shots he took and they really show how beautiful each of his models are.


Most of his photos either are against an editable white background or outside with a brick wall as the first photo shows or with a gorgeous park setting as one photo shows with Jessica. I'm not sure what else I can say about how amazing he is at photography so I'll let the pictures I have speak for themselves. SO GORGEOUS! Also he has his own store where he sells unique polaroids he takes of those he shoots with sort of behind the scenes looks, I have one of Monika and it's really awesome! Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures I have!
