Cosplay Feature: Kels Cosplay's Rumi!

Photo by Raymond Ho One of the biggest crazes to have happened last year was the arrival of K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix over the summer. Between the insane visuals and catchy songs, it's no surprise that the characters themselves latched onto so many creators. Of course this led to a cosplay explosion after the film's release which continues on to MAGFest. I figured at some point I'd want to share a Demon Hunters cosplay here soon and Kels Cosplay came in with a fantastic look at Rumi, the band's leader & prime vocalist. Specifically you have the outfit worn during the last act of the film. Kels also looks to have done a slight variation featuring some makeup but I'll get to that later on in the writeup. The first version of the look includes a bedazzled black crop jacket with various golden stripes and accents throughout. You also get to see various gold chains traveling down the jacket.

Cosplay Feature: Detailed Illusion Cosplay's Snow Villiers!


Another awesome male cosplayer that I discovered awhile ago is Detailed Illusion Cosplay! This guy makes some amazing outfits mainly deriving from Final Fantasy characters such as Balthier, Tidus, Vincent Valentine and several others. He also has a knack for doing gender bends on characters such as Elsa from Frozen and Ariel from The Little Mermaid! Both of these outfits are very creative and still capture the essence of the original design! For today's outfit, I have his Snow Villiers from the Final Fantasy 13 series of games. Specifically his look and giant ice weapon from Lightning Returns: FF13. The cosplay involves a large black suit/trench-coat along with a blonde wig and his necklace formerly worn by his wife Serah who apparently passed away in the time between this game and 13-2.

What's perhaps most impressive in this cosplay for me is Snow's icicle weapon that's double sided. The base was done with clear plastic, then wrapped around multiple times with clear ceran wrap as well as epoxy! Connecting the two sides is a single PVC pipe also covered by the same wrap. There are also highlights of blue throughout the prop to give off the feel that the entire thing is made out of ice! I also love the photos that have him in front of giant wooden clocks which definitely fit the overall theme that Lightning Returns has with going through time in order to stop the impending end of the world brought by Chaos! Detailed-Illusion always does a fantastic job with his cosplay and definitely chooses characters with very complex outfits. I hope you guys enjoy the photos!
