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. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms. There's also different pauldrons on the shoulders. One of which is smoothed out with what I believe is the X-Men symbol on one and the other is covere...

Cosplay Community Spotlight: NigriNation and MonikaNation on Instagram!

If it's one thing that makes me smile, is talking with other people who share a love for cosplay as well as having a deep admiration for some of the cosplayers that I look up to and admire. Such is the case with the 2 awesome girls that run the fan-pages NigriNation and MonikaNation on Instagram. Both involve posting pictures of Jessica and Monika several times a day, commenting on how they look and the picture itself. Seriously these girls are absolute sweethearts and the many pictures they post each day on them makes me smile, sometimes when I need it. NigriNation has been running a little bit longer and the pictures she'll find are most of the time ones I've never even seen of Jessica before, including one cosplay that I didn't even know she made (a Jolteon gijinka). The page for Monika involves pretty much the same thing and talking with her is just hilarious each time.

We gush on and on about how amazing the 2 of them are and how beautiful they look in pretty much 90% of their cosplays. It's nice for me to have people I can gush to and not be judged as a weirdo/creep since it's happened in the past unfortunately. I can't even begin to post the pictures they have up so instead I'll include links to their profiles so you can follow them/check them out if you want to. They both think I'm a sweetheart so that's always nice to hear. To the girls that run the pages, don't ever stop and keep running them. They put a smile on my face as they probably do to everyone else who follows them, you're awesome :D
