Cosplay Feature: Renee4Atlanta's Ironheart!

Happy Halloween to you all! To end this month of features, I wanted to share this INCREDIBLE work by Renee4Atlanta that she helped create and wore at this past Dragon*Con not too long ago. Coming off of Ironheart's debut series, Renee took on the task to recreate the updated look and man is it intense! When you look at the photos, you can first find that of course Renee has a more comfy layer of clothing which the armor pieces are layered on top. From the top, Renee has the iconic Iron Man helmet which is colored red for the outer shell and the mask being a shiny silver shade. From the photos I did find, I don't know if the mask can actually come down or if Renee made this to showcase an open look. Getting down to the rest, you can see how some of the armor is segmented off/layered. Red looks to make up a good chunk of the outer layer whereas the inner portions are silver.

Cosplay Feature: Harajuku Bunny's Starfire!

The minute I saw my awesome friend Harajuku Bunny was cosplaying as Starfire (me being a Nightwing fan and all), I was extremely excited to see the finished cosplay and man was I completely in love when it was done! Kelsey took inspiration from the newly revealed Starfire statue from Kotobukiya and the work she put into capturing her was incredible. The cosplay went under small changes with the most recent version having been done for Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con. The fabric Kelsey chose for the outfit is absolutely perfect. The violet shaded suit is adorned with red gems which if I remember corrected were casted in resin.

Kelsey decided to truly become Starfire by covering herself orange and the wig looks amazing. The recent version of this cosplay actually utilizes an updated wig and it's gorgeous! I also love what Kelsey did with the starbolts for her hands. They look like combined pieces of tissue papers wrapped around a red stone. The contacts Kelsey used are a bright green and you can really see them in the pictures below. The poses struck are completely perfect for the character and Kelsey even won the cosplay competition when she debuted the newest version. Some of the pictures below were edited to show the bright starbolt powers! I'm really hoping that I get to meet Kelsey one day and that we can wear our Starfire and Nightwing together. EPIC PICTURES WILL BE TAKEN :D. Hope you guys like the pictures!
