Cosplay Feature: Shir0gami's Meta Knight!

Photo by RandomBystanderHere As someone who both is a huge fan of Meta Knight as a character in addition to having cosplayed as him years ago, I am ALWAYS gonna shout about any other takes on the famed swordsman. Shir0gami is one such person and created an amazing gijinka of him for this past MAGFest (yep, still on that event!). It's funny how for Shiro, Kirby Air Ride was her first exposure to the character as noted in one of her pinned posts on Instagram. Starting off the cosplay, you have Meta Knight's imposing mask which is the form taken for this cosplay. Shiro has a face mask done perfectly for MK in both the design and grey coloring. The visor slit gives her the ability to see which hopefully she was while in movement. Man, it's hard for me to not compare it to mine years ago and how what I made is vastly inferior to this XD. After the visor, you then have the iconic cape which includes to high propped up collar. This portion has a white layer for the opposite side t...

Cosplay Feature: Jessica Nigri and Monika Lee's WildStar Cosplay!

Continuing my cosplay feature blow out from the awesomeness I saw at PAX East is Jessica Nigri and Monika Lee with their WildStar cosplays they made for representing the game. Following both of their Instagram profiles was a definite treat as I got to see tons of in-progress photos. Jessica was a Draken Stalker for the Dominion and Monika was an Aurin Esper on the Exiles. Both cosplays had Worbla involved with certain parts and their props were made by the ever so awesome Punished Props!

Jessica's Draken was made with tons of armor and what looks like possibly a skin suit dyed orange with little bumps attached to it. Her tail for the outfit was absolutely incredible and the daggers have a glow effect. The blue hair fits Jessica really well and I loved the sculpting and forming she did. So much incredible detail and I had my jaw drop to the floor when I saw them. Of course the many spike on Jess' armor prevented me to give her a hug but that's okay! :D The horns on her head look tall as well!

Monika's Aurin definitely includes purple as one of the primary colors from her wig, ears and clothing colors. The jacket looks amazing and has a sweet looking pattern. The giant belt on her waist was done with Worbla as well as the leg armor pieces. Her weapon is a kick-ass looking Psy Blade painted grey with glowing LED stones. The leather fabric (I think) for her jacket looks so cool and definitely has a nice feel to it :). The photos taken both at the convention and off site for professional like shots are great. The poses they both make are fitting for the character and again I really enjoyed seeing these in person. To Jess and Monika, you both did an incredible job on these outfits and should feel really proud of them <3. Hope you guys enjoy the pictures!!
