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 Showcase: Jessica Nigri's Armored Sailor Mars and Armored Sailor Scouts!

Photo by Vivid Vision
Don't worry I have literally a bunch more new cosplayers to feature along with a few familiar faces but if you know me at all...I had to talk about this! Here we've got Jessica Nigri in her Armored Sailor Mars cosplay. The idea, photoshoot, and concept of this outfit is literally a copy of when she did her Battle Armor Elsa. This includes the same material used, same girls she partnered up with for the shoot and the fact that the character was drawn by the same artist! This is by no means a bad thing because this looks absolutely gorgeous. I even got a print of this from her because I loved it so much! I've also included pictures of all the other girls in their respective Sailor Senshi!

Every single one of these photos are absolutely gorgeous and pretty much every girl used the same techniques to create the outfit. Massive amounts of Worbla and intricate pattern design. The layout of these patterns on each piece is similar and they all include the signature colors for each Sailor Scout in varying shades. The photo on the left has lots of blue for Mercury where as Jupiter has a combination of green and pink! You pretty much get the idea right? Photographer Vivid Vision took part in the cosplay aspect as well much like in the Disney Princess shoot by cosplaying as Chibi Moon (I think? I started watching Sailor Moon awhile ago and I don't think they introduced her yet) so there's TONS of pink for her!

Then you have Darshelle Stevens who's simply amazing behind the camera and took the incredible shot which I'll save for last down below. The wigs and the tiara's look beautiful on all the girls and I enjoyed seeing the progress pictures that Jessica posted on her Instagram with all the painting that she and her boyfriend did in getting this out for a convention up in Canada. I think it was Edmonton Expo that this was debuted at? The skirts each of them used also compliment the armor work really well. I really have to hand it to these girls for creating such incredible outfits. It's hard for me to decide which shoot to pick as a favorite that they did. Expect a rainbow of colors with these pictures and I hope you guys enjoy them!
