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: Rachel Nycole's Tifa!

Photo by Photosassin
Yay new Cosplayer for today's feature! It's funny, the way I plan these is that I schedule them 2-3 weeks in advance. If you have been paying attention to the gaming world with E3 being over, then you may be aware that Square Enix's mega hit Final Fantasy was announced to be in development for the PS4. No I'm not talking about a port, more like full fledged HD graphics that rival what the Advent Children movie looked like! So it's perfect that I'm featuring the super cute Rachel Nycole as Tifa Lockhart! Rachel is over in Canada and I discovered her work through browsing on Instagram. Eventually I looked at her page and definitely wanted to feature one of her outfits. Tifa was the best choice since she looks amazing as her. As you can see from the picture above, this is Tifa's classic outfit. So the white tank top and suspenders are present.

There's also the addition of the black skirt that's attached to the suspenders. Rachel also has the arms covered perfectly with red gloves and silver armor pieces for her elbows. These look to be either Worbla or craft foam! I love how her red boots look, shiny and a perfect shade to compliment the lighter red shades for her gloves. The wig looks especially beautiful on Rachel and her facial expressions look so calm and serene. The poses seen in the photos are also very relaxed and she definitely looks to be ready for battle.

The lighting in the pictures make her face look soft and gentle which might be what Rachel was going for with these photos. There's lots other cosplays she's done that highlight the cute factor but it was much easier to write about this since I have had such a crush on Tifa in the past. The photos look absolutely beautiful! Enjoy them everyone!
