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: Angelica Dawn's Pin-Up Catwoman!

Today I wanted to (finally) show off another Arizona cosplayer who's also a member of the cosplay group "The XX Girls"! Angelica Dawn found her main love with the Assassin's Creed Franchise and still holds today having recently done another outfit for San Diego Comic Con from the franchise representing the upcoming entry AC: Unity! She also happens to be a huge comic book geek having an actual job working at a comic book shop which has to be a very fun and entertaining job (most of the time I hope). With that being said I got one of her comic book outfits being a pin up version of Catwoman from the Batman universe!

Multiple parts of this cosplay contribute to the pin-up look here. For starters, there are the black lacy stockings along with black gloves and her cowl/cap. The main bodysuit strongly gives off that corset like vibe which was definitely worn to capture that style. In all of Angelica's poses, the cap is loose on her head with goggles wrapped around it. Then of course she's acting very playful with the ball of yarn she used in some of the shots and it's both adorable and sexy which I imagine is what Angelica was going for. The heels are also a nice touch! The leggings she wears in one shot look to be leather or spandex as are her arm sleeves. They're then taken off in the remainder of the shots showing lots of skin which as I mentioned before, adds in the sexiness of Catwoman. I feel like Angelica had a lot of fun with the shoot as well as wearing this cosplay! I hope I get to meet her one day since so far I've managed to meet half of the XX Girls ^^. Enjoy the pictures guys!
