Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lenne!

Shot by Savanyahs Who the HECK is Lenne?!? I always love seeing Jess Blaze Cosplay continue the Final Fantasy rabbit hole she's in with all the cosplays she's done from the franchise. Tackling the mysterious singer from X-2 alongside her friend Kam C Cosplay (as Yuna) felt like a natural next cosplay for her to create. This also wasn't Jess' first foray into the many dress-spheres that the sequel focused on. For the originator of the Songstress job class, there's a whole lot of blue here which you see immediately with the main top piece and arm sleeves. Starting from there, you have essentially a blue vest that has lighter blue frills along the edges. The dress also has differing lengths for each side. One giving off a midriff look whereas the other extends longer past the black skirt.

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 :)
