Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

Cosplay Feature: Missyeru's Scar Gijinka!

I've never gave cosplayer Missyeru a proper feature and after following her for several months I definitely wanted to change that :). Debuted at Wonder*Con this year, Michelle created a gijinka around one of Disney's infamous villains Scar. She also had a partner with fellow cosplayer Lindsay Elyse as Mufasa (still awesome to say his name by the way ^^). Not to mention Lisa Lou Who jumping in on the fun with her Nala! It's apparent in the pictures I have for you guys that Michelle got inspiration from African style clothing in creating Scar. The variety of earth tones that make up her outfit is very fitting considering they're mainly on the darker side of tones. She also has a variety of jewelry and trinkets on her wrists and neck.

The ears Michelle's wearing look incredibly cute considering Scar is well...a murderer XD. The incredibly long black wig also looks wonderful on her. Missyeru also outlined her nails with sharp black claws, not to mention the makeup is awesome! The scar placement over her eye is just perfect! All the photos have Michelle look menacing as well as mischievous. I especially love her grin in one of the pictures I found for you guys.

The lower part of her dress is seen with multiple layers of fabric over each other which I imagine is traditional in African style fashion. I'm surprised I haven't had the chance to meet Missyeru yet though I'd very much like to. Even though she mainly does lots of League of Legends cosplays, branching away here and there is always good to see :). Enjoy the other pictures guys!
