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 Feature: Vampy Bit Me's Agnés Oblige!


One of the games I'm really looking forward to playing is Bravely Default for the Nintendo 3DS. The game made by Square Enix has gained lots of love for being a call-back to some of the old school RPG's like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger. Another person who definitely loves it is cosplayer Linda Le/Vampy Bit Me! How much does she love it? Around the time when the game came out to shortly afterwards, Linda picked it up and I swear all I saw from her were tweets and post to how addicting this game is for her. Grinding up to level 100 for the main characters and maxing out job levels. This was definitely something Vampy enjoyed playing on her travels to cons and free time. It's no surprise that she eventually created a cosplay from it and the character she chose was Agnés Oblige in the Vampire job class!

When I saw the ears, I was not expecting it at all to look vampire related though you definitely can make the case for them being bat ears. The black coat and gloves are elegant looking and the white collar makes this more like an adorable vampire rather than a menacing one. The suit itself is a crop top with a variety of different angled belts with buckles and shorts for the pants. Knee high socks are also shown with a black star pattern and a brace on one leg. Not only that, but Linda made a prop for her which is one of the weapons used for the class! The sword is beautifully painted with a blend of pink and purple. The location used in the shoot is beautiful and perfect for Agnés. The brown hair looks incredible on her as well!

I know you told me to wait for when you made the second prop to do this feature Vampy but I had to do this cause I didn't want to wait to talk about how amazing this cosplay is. If there's one thing I love about her is she takes lots of characters from some of my favorite RPG's like Luca from Chrono Trigger and more recently, Tifa Lockhart in her original outfit from Final Fantasy 7 (WHICH LOOKS AWESOME) :D Enjoy the photos guys!
