Cosplay Feature: 16bitSami's Dancing Scyther!

Photo by Two Flame Studios Pokemon gijinkas never fail to impress me and 16bitSami's take on Scyther as a Scimitar Dancer immediately caught my eye in wanting to write about it. Done for Otakon earlier in the year, Sami states that she wanted to emulate the "dancer style vibes" she had for a previous take on Flareon. Not only that, but there are other elements taken from a Cowslip designed Scyther cosplay she did nearly 10 years ago :O. So if you want to let learn more about this gorgeous cosplay, let's dive in! Sami has a fantastic long green wig that has a sort of forest vibe with its shade. I'm not entirely sure if the armor piece directly on top of it is a leaf design of sorts but Sami has that rocking as additional headgear. Some of the pictures I have will also give a glimpse to a green hood that travels down her back with a gold trim on the edge. I really love the blend of clothing and armor that Sami utilized for this cosplay. When you get down to the main...

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!
