Neen The Kitchen Magician's Paintress!

The Paintress' overall design in Expedition 33 is both fascinating and yet haunting. As the sole force behind vanishing off people every year, she's become one of few antagonists in the game. Course, through the game's lifespan in cosplay, people mostly tackle the main members of the core Expedition. Whether it's in the traditional uniforms, other alternate costumes or the iconic Baguette outfits. So it's been a real treat to see Neen The Kitchen Magician do a phenomenal job in bringing The Paintress to life. The full outfit is black from head to toe. You have a gown like piece at the bottom with it flowing mostly in the back. It does look like both the bottom and top pieces are segmented into like a long sleeve shirt and long pants. But being full pitch black does give some shots a sense that it's all connected. That even includes the face area which one pic does show that yep, Neen is able to see out of it.

Cosplay Feature: Riki LeCotey's Nami from One Piece!


It's the middle of summer so I thought why not spice things up with well...a summer cosplay! Today I've got the lovely Riki LeCotey (known online as Riddle's Messy Wardrobe) and her Nami cosplay from the hit anime One Piece! This version is unlike the standard low cut top/sometimes bikini and shorts that the character wears in the show. Instead it actually looks a lot more like the main character Monkey D. Luffy. Based from the MUGIWARA figure of Nami, Riki looks to be incredibly comfortable in this cosplay. Jean booty shorts, a small red vest and an orange wig. To top everything off, Riki has the infamous pirate hat that Luffy wears while out to sea.

Despite the outfit being simple, it's the photos and how Riki looks that make me love this cosplay. All the pictures were taken at what looks like to be near a pool. She's also casually laying either across a lounge chair, or giving a playful smile either up close like on the left, or while enjoying a drink as you'll see below. The colors really mesh well together and it definitely gives off that summer vibe. Nami's signature tattoo on her upper arm is also seen in this cosplay.

Riki absolutely nailed this cosplay and the look suits her well. These pictures would make absolutely beautiful prints just saying :D. I hope you guys enjoy the other picture I've got to share! Apologies if this seemed like a short feature today, I just had to talk about this when I saw the photos!
