Cosplay Feature: RiderCGA's King Daredevil!

Photo by Chazzy Baragiola The combination of being snowed in from the blizzard this past week PLUS being hooked hard into Cyberpunk 2077 made this post about a day late. Apologies for the delay but let's get started! I came across RiderCGA's awesome Daredevil during my collection of MAGFest pics so this is probably the last one for that specific convention. As you'll see from the images I found, Rider has a really awesome look/take on the Man Without Fear. Further research indicates that this is known as King Daredevil and is the title Matt Murdock took during a run back in 2022! Starting from the top, you can see a lot of red and black went into this look for the character. The top includes a red hood that hides just about the top of the mask the character is well known for. Small peek at the horns too!

Cosplay Feature: Chubear Cosplay's Lady Arthas!

For today, I wanted to show you the other half to the Stella Chuu/Chubear Cosplay duo with the latter! The cosplays that Olivia makes started getting my interest only about a month or two ago and she definitely brings in the badass along with the occasional derp. The cosplay I have is a gender-bend World of Warcraft character with the dreaded Lady Arthas! The outfit was created to match with Stella's Jaina Proudmoore! As such, Olivia wore this at Blizzcon this year in California! The cosplay was done with either foam or worbla for the armor construction! I am incredibly attracted to how the straps are done for the legs. Gives off that kind of shackled feeling, plus the rust/paint job for the armor pieces work so well!

For the wig, Olivia went with a long snow-white style which compliments the dark ice cold colors of the armor. The pauldrons are one of my favorite pieces along with the breastplate. The tiny skull pieces are a definite match to the real Arthas' design! Olivia also has an incredibly long and tattered cape extending all the way down to her feet. In some of the photos I have for you guys, there is also the addition to a small Ice Crown (SEE WHAT I DID THERE?) on her head.

Course you can't talk about an Arthas Menethil cosplay without mentioning the iconic FROSTMOURNE blade! It's incredibly well crafted and I appreciate the amount of work Olivia put into making this. The gauntlets were laced over leather gloves and there's also a small amount of fabric draped over between her legs. The effects added in some of the photos highlight the undead powers Arthas possesses. Though I wonder if this female form would last long in the cold reaches of Northrend? Fun fact, some of the pieces of this outfit were re-used for a Frozen/Arthas mash up cosplay (aptly titled Lich Queen Elsa)! I hope you guys enjoy the other pictures :)
