Cosplay Feature: Shiro Cos as Melinoe!

So I knew I was gonna get insanely addicted to Hades 2 but I wasn't expecting to essentially clear it all out a little over a month after it released. Having done so much in the first game it didn't take long for me to get back into the rouge-lite groove and do run after run to progress its story. So naturally that led to me wanting to find cosplayers that portrayed the main antagonist Melinoe. Shiro Cos was someone I came across early on as I was searching throughout Instagram with the game's hashtag attached and man does this look freaking awesome. To kick things off, the 3D files for some of the pieces like her weaponry in ADDITION to the killer shoot location were provided by cosplay collective  The Dangerous Ladies ! Shiro has a short bob cut blonde wig with a small leaf crown placed on top. That crown also has a silver moon symbol placed directly in the middle of it. This to help signify Melinoe's placement as one of the Silver Sisters. You'll notice that the ...

Cosplay Feature: Leanna Vamp's Lara Croft!


For today I have the last cosplayer I was recommended to check out during NYCC! Her name is LeeAnna Vamp and man is she definitely the mischievous type. One genre she admires is horror so she markets herself as "The Ghoul of Your Dreams" on her Facebook page but she's not limited by that as her only outlet of cosplay! She's done various gender-bends such as Han Solo, Boba Fett alongside of course female versions of Freddy from Nightmare on Elm Street and Ash from Army of Darkness. Today however, I've got LeeAnna as the iconic video game heroine Lara Croft from Tomb Raider! The outfit chosen is I believe from the Tomb Raider movies and Tomb Raider: Underworld (unless that was a movie title in which case I apologize). The outfit is similar to Monika Lee's version yet LeeAnna really shows off her facial expressions here.

The outfit consists of a dark brown tank top and booty shorts. Various straps are shown across the outfit for Lara's necessary equipment including holsters on her legs for the 2 guns you see above! Leather gloves are also present which adds in the badass look that LeeAnna is trying to capture here. Can't forget about the black combat boots too! Yup she definitely looks like someone I would not want to mess with! There's also a backpack shown which is a staple element for Lara. I really like the photo quality of the shots as they give off that Hollywood vibe! Plus she has the perfect hair for Lara! I feel bad that I wasn't able to make time to introduce myself to LeeAnna at NYCC, she was over at the Artist Alley. She's definitely the kind of person who seems to be incredibly sweet! I hope you guys enjoy the pictures below and I plan to feature more of her work! Interview perhaps? We'll have to see :)
