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: Microkitty Cosplay's Aqua!

I had only discovered MicroKitty Cosplay in the weeks leading up to PAX East this year. Of course this was the cosplay that did it for me, not to mention that she's a big Kingdom Hearts fan which made me go WOO! Here, she is cosplaying as Aqua, one of the main keyblade warriors in the PSP game Birth By Sleep. This was also her first attempt at making an iconic keyblade prop. I love how MicroKitty looks in the cosplay in general. The cosplay consists of Aqua's very sleek looking top which has pink straps coming up and over her chest. Underneath is the blue top with the black corset like piece covering the bottom area of the same top! I absolutely love her wrist guards as they are so spot on. They look to be created with the same material used for the keyblade!

Speaking of which, Emylee (her actual name) did an AMAZING job on her keyblade. It's just really unfortunate that it had mishaps and ended up breaking during the day she wore it to PAX! The light blue wig is perfect in both the shade and shape! Long white sleeves that almost cover her hands are also seen here. In the dead middle of the pink straps is a pendant in the shape of the Heartless Symbol. The picture on the left also shows her holding the star charm that Aqua made for herself, Terra and Ventus! The leggings/boots are also on point with the way the armor pieces are placed.

The poses have Emylee giving a bright smile as well as a soft composure which is exactly how Aqua is in the game. Very intelligent and caring of her friends. I would have loved to see her in person and actually get to meet her! Next time for sure and I'll try to wear my own Riku cosplay SO WE CAN TAKE AMAZING PICTURES :). I'm a sucker for Kingdom Hearts cosplays so this overall wins my heart over. I hope you guys enjoy the rest of the pictures!
