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 Feature: Katyuska Moonfox as Tharja, my Fire Emblem Waifu!


The admiration I have for Katyuska Moonfox is so strong you guys. Today I wanted to feature her Tharja cosplay from Fire Emblem: Awakening! The outfit as a whole is one of Katyuska's best outfits yet in my opinion. She just looks so enchanting as her and all the more mischievous. For some backstory, Tharja is an optional character you can recruit at a certain point in the game. She can be romanced by your avatar and her personality is rather odd. By odd I mean she enjoys "watching" your character from afar in all of your romance attempts. I loved this cosplay so much that I went and replayed Awakening for the sole purpose of getting Tharja to be my wife <3. Over the past few months I've developed an immense love for the series so now just about any Fire Emblem cosplay will make me incredibly happy!

 Looking at the cosplay itself, it consists of a thin covering over most of Katyuska's body. The fabric she used is a near perfect match for how it looks in the game. I love the outside and inside of the cape and the trim throughout the whole outfit is a beautiful gold! The wig is a deep black color yet the photos here were edited to show off a great deal of purple and I absolutely love the results! The crown adorned on Katyuska's head is probably made from either foam or Worbla! There are also gold heels with bands around her ankles.

The thin covering also goes up to her hands with only her fingers being unaffected. The shoulder pieces look to be the same fabric as majority of the cosplay itself and I just love how it looks! As far as the poses go, Katyuska does a fantastic job capturing that dark side of Tharja which she's known for. The first image you see here is completely identical to her portrait in the game itself and I LOVE IT! The purple shading in the lighting works so well and most likely references the Dark Mage aspect of Tharja's class! Katyuska looks so elegant and her figure matches what the character is supposedly known for as having "the best body in the whole army" in game! I really hope you guys love the photos as much as I do!
