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: Stella Chuu's Supergirl Kai

Today I have the energetic and badass cosplayer Stella Chuu! Stella on top of being a cosplayer is also part of a nerd burlesque group! Rather than focus on that (hopefully in an interview maybe?), I have an incredible cosplay she created for San Diego Comic Con this year. The character is Supergirl from DC Comics but rather it being her traditional look, it's driven from a statue! The statue being part of Square Enix's Play Arts Kai line which has designer Tetsuya Nomura basically create more over the top versions of your favorite characters! Have you seen his Batman one? FREAKING NUTS!

Stella's Supergirl is from what I saw, mainly sewn using fabric that could be mistaken for armor if you didn't look close enough. I'm thinking maybe it's some kind of vinyl? Her Supergirl also includes a Nerf Sword which she painted and the poses she makes are awesome! The cosplay was debuted alongside her friend Chubear Cosplay who wore Wonder Woman from the same line of statues. The blue and red colors of the cosplay work incredible together and the wig looks beautiful. There weren't many photos of them in poses so alongside what I have, there are also work-in-progress pictures. Enjoy guys!
