Neen The Kitchen Magician's Paintress!

The Paintress' overall design in Expedition 33 is both fascinating and yet haunting. As the sole force behind vanishing off people every year, she's become one of few antagonists in the game. Course, through the game's lifespan in cosplay, people mostly tackle the main members of the core Expedition. Whether it's in the traditional uniforms, other alternate costumes or the iconic Baguette outfits. So it's been a real treat to see Neen The Kitchen Magician do a phenomenal job in bringing The Paintress to life. The full outfit is black from head to toe. You have a gown like piece at the bottom with it flowing mostly in the back. It does look like both the bottom and top pieces are segmented into like a long sleeve shirt and long pants. But being full pitch black does give some shots a sense that it's all connected. That even includes the face area which one pic does show that yep, Neen is able to see out of it.

Cosplay Feature: Jaime Poison's Warrior Ariel!

If there's one thing I've seen thanks to the Internet is many variations on the classic Disney Princesses. From imagining them as Street Fighter characters, Star Wars Bounty Hunters and even World of Warcraft classes. Here I have cosplayer Jaime Poison cosplaying as Warrior Princess Ariel which is her own take on one of her favorite Disney Characters. I actually was able to see this in person as I managed to run into her during PAX East this year. It was cool that she knew who I was and let me tell you, she looked absolutely stunning! I love the red wig that she used since it looks so long and flows beautifully!

The shoulder piece was made out of Worbla and the sea shell bra looks super cute as well. The Trident is most impressive here as the staff itself was done with a wooden stick. The top part was crafted with the base done using wires and sculpting. On top of this was some clay baked up and a wooden dowel latched in place for support. This was then spray painted with some gold paint and a gold cord to finish it off. The green pants looks to be done in spandex and patterned out for that scale effect. Seriously this was so cool to see and I'm so glad I got to meet Jaime. I hope I get to see you again this year Jaime and hopefully talk for a longer period of time :). Enjoy the pictures guys!
