Shutting One Door, Keeping others Open

UPDATED ON 8/20/21: Facebook, Patreon and Blog IG pages have been shutdown/discontinued As the COVID pandemic rages on and cons are even shutting down into 2021, it got me thinking on a drive home one night about how I'd feel with even coming back to blogging. When cons eventually do come back at some point. Truth be told, many of the posts and content I shared here could be transferred over to more discussions via my podcast CosplayBytes. I've been blogging my love for games, cons and cosplay for 7 years now and maybe it's time to say goodbye for now? My podcast has gotten me some incredible opportunities as a member of Press for conventions, and the rapid love I've had for streaming is also taking up a lot of time now. On top of multiple personal things on my end, I don't think I have the energy to keep this up even post COVID you know? The very first cosplay centered post I wrote was on Jessica Nigri's Deadpool, and since then it's spawned over 800 posts

Cosplay Feature: Andy Rae Cosplay's Death Knight!

Photo by Martin Wong
I remember seeing the above photo in lots of places online throughout the past year. It only wasn't until a few weeks ago that I found the lovely lady responsible for this female Death Knight from World of Warcraft. Guys, meet Andy Rae Cosplay, and let me tell you she makes some pretty badass stuff. Andy Rae was one of the girls a part of the Battle Disney Princess (as Snow White) and Sailor Scout (Jupiter) groups that I constantly go on and on about. Her Death Knight cosplay was done with mostly Worbla for the armor pieces. This includes the breast plate, spikes around her waist/hips, and the shoulder guards! I absolutely love the paint job and added features such as the teeth extending from the bottom of the breastplate!

The color scheme for the entire cosplay consists of a very dark blue with additions of gray, silver and black. Andy also has a long white wig with a blue hood that extends down her back. That giant axe weapon you see her holding on the left? She definitely made that as well! I imagine a combination of foam and Worbla was used to create it. The pattern and design on it is very fitting for the character. With Andy being based in Canada, the location is perfect for the Death Knight. The snow works well with the armor and overall presence of the character.

Spikes are covering most of the armor pieces along with chains coming off the belt. There's actually fur around that area and I find it to be an awesome touch. The shoulder guards are stacked on top of one another and the skulls on the leg plates look great! Being a big fan of World of Warcraft and the overall universe of those games, Andy Rae's Death Knight is so epic. I hope I'm able to interview her some time when most of what I have planned is cleared out! Until then, enjoy the rest of these pictures! CHECK OUT THOSE POSES!
