Cosplay Feature: 16bitSami's Dancing Scyther!

Photo by Two Flame Studios Pokemon gijinkas never fail to impress me and 16bitSami's take on Scyther as a Scimitar Dancer immediately caught my eye in wanting to write about it. Done for Otakon earlier in the year, Sami states that she wanted to emulate the "dancer style vibes" she had for a previous take on Flareon. Not only that, but there are other elements taken from a Cowslip designed Scyther cosplay she did nearly 10 years ago :O. So if you want to let learn more about this gorgeous cosplay, let's dive in! Sami has a fantastic long green wig that has a sort of forest vibe with its shade. I'm not entirely sure if the armor piece directly on top of it is a leaf design of sorts but Sami has that rocking as additional headgear. Some of the pictures I have will also give a glimpse to a green hood that travels down her back with a gold trim on the edge. I really love the blend of clothing and armor that Sami utilized for this cosplay. When you get down to the main...

Cosplay Feature: Lyz Brickley's Warrior Fluttershy!

I have for you guys another beautiful cosplay from Katsucon! I'm sure you all remember cosplayer Lyz Brickley from previous features I've done on her. For the con, Lyz was part of a big My Little Pony Battle Armor group with various other cosplayers such as Chubear Cosplay and Joanna Mari to name a few. As for which pony she chose, Lyz went with Fluttershy and I can't even begin to say how much of a perfect match she is for the animal loving pony. For those unfamiliar to the show, Fluttershy is mainly the shy but sweet one. Even though I've never had the pleasure of formally meeting Lyz, from the pictures and videos I've seen of her, she's just absolutely adorable and has the cutest voice EVER! The cosplay itself was designed by one of the other members in the group and I'm somewhat reminded of Princess Leia's Slave bikini from Return of the Jedi.

The cosplay consists of a bright pink wig with yellow pony ears. Armor wise is a lone arm covering on her right arm along with pieces on her hip which connect and hold up her elegant lower dress. Despite the outfit not having much armor covering, I feel that it works for Fluttershy's character especially. Her weapon of choice is the bow and arrow. The bow looks to possibly resemble a tree/forest like nature with it's brown base and green vines covering the bow itself. The armor is tinted to be the classic gold shine that many are familiar with. If I remember correctly, the armor was made out of Worbla!

The skirt on the lower side as I mentioned before is very elegant like with pink in the front and yellow in the back. Again these are Fluttershy's colors so they work beautifully. The breastplate and hip armor have such a beautiful design within them plus there are beads/necklaces that hang off the chest in a curve like manner. There's also a headband that's seen with wings that are on the sides of her wig. Lyz poses so peaceful and stoic, which make the images look absolutely beautiful! I do hope you guys like the other pictures I have to share with you all!
