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.

Cosplay Feature: Nikki Kristan's Rikku Berserker!


One of the awesome friends I met recently through cosplay is the super awesome Nikki Kristan! You might remember her as one of the many Poison Ivy's I showed as part of my first showcase a few weeks ago! This time I wanted to give her a full feature with another one of my favorite cosplays of hers. The outfit being Rikku's Berserker from Final Fantasy 10-2! The outfit itself consists of mainly lots of fur and animal print fabric due to the class Berserker in the game being more of an animalistic nature/style. I feel that it's one of the many classes that fits Rikku's personality. That and for me I remember having her as an Alchemist! Also from getting to know her, Nikki is definitely a lover of cats, so with the animal prints being leopard, it's perfect for her!
The poses Nikki makes are definitely cute and fierce! The horns on her head and shoulder pieces were done with foam if I remember correctly from Nikki talking about it in one of her page posts. If I'm wrong then I apologize. The colors are very vibrant in the fabric and I wonder if the feet are either easy or difficult to walk in. There's also a pose she makes down below that I personally find very attractive ^^. It also helps that Nikki is a big fan of Final Fantasy so she definitely enjoyed making this outfit. I'm really looking forward to meeting her at Hartford Comic Con next month! Maybe an interview done in the future? :) I hope you guys enjoy the pictures!
