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: Joanna Mari's Lady Sif!


I just had to share with you all today this incredibly badass cosplay made by an equally badass cosplayer! Hopefully you all remember Joanna Mari from previous features and the interview we had a few months ago. For Special Edition New York City, Joanna along with several other cosplayers made the armored warriors of Asgard including Angela, Valkyrie and Joanna as Lady Sif! For this cosplay, she went all out with the creation of the coolest armor I've seen in awhile. All done with Worbla and some chainmail, Joanna looks ever so fierce as the Asgardian warrior. I love how the circlet/helm looks on her with the two winged ends and the point in the middle. The pauldrons along with her wrists, have a small inclusion of chainmail which brings that elegant look to the overall cosplay.

The breastplate has a very simple design with gold outlining the edges and coming together in the center. The silver coloring along with the red gems work incredible here! There's also some leatherwork involved with her belt strap and boots. The latter is also covered in similarly made armor pieces. Draping off and along her backside is a beautiful red cape that definitely looks soft to touch. The sword looks incredible in the photos as well and I love how it was created.

Joanna has a long and curly black wig which looks lovely! The face-paint she's wearing is also menacing in some ways. The backdrop of a forest along with rocks definitely brings the whole cosplay together. Joanna wielding the sword in some of the shots makes her more than ready to take on a couple of Frost Giants! So much work was put into this cosplay and I'm in such awe that Joanna has SO much talent :D. Really hope I get to meet her at NYCC this year!
