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!

Cosplay Feature: Abby Dark-Star's Poison Ivy!

A few weeks ago I started following the cosplay work of Abby Dark-Star! This was after watching an interview done with her at this past WonderCon and besides from being very beautiful, she's an absolute sweetheart from the looks of it! I've seen her mentioned from some of the other girls I follow so I thought that it would be a good time to look through her other awesome outfits. It was somewhat difficult to find one I could do a feature on so when I saw her Poison Ivy I thought it would be easy enough for me to dive into.

Not only is this Abby's first cosplay which debuted at MegaCon 2009 but it's also one of many versions of Ivy that she did! The version shown for today is her "Shadow of the Bat" version whereas others include one based off of the Kotobukiya statue as well as her look from Batman: Arkham Asylum!

I absolutely love the outfit and how attractive Abby looks which definitely fits the character plus the scenery of the photos looks pretty! Like most Poison Ivy cosplays it's a one piece suit done with leaf like texture and a brooch like item for her neck. I love the wig she chose plus her eyes are mesmerizing! There is also boots included made from the same texture as well as wrist cuffs! Abby is 1/2 of the cosplay couple Keabitum so definitely be on the look out with possibly more features with her and her husband! Until then I hope you guys enjoy these pictures :D
