Cosplay Feature: Kay Bear Cosplay's Rouge the Bat!

There's just something about Kay Bear Cosplay where she just emanates so much beauty in any sort of shoot she participates in. Cosplay, lingerie, you name it and Kay just looks stunning! Today, I wanted to share her Rouge the Bat cosplay from the Sonic franchise. As the infamous thief, Kay brings a playful side to the character mostly with the poses and facial expressions she makes in the pictures I found online. Plus, the cosplay overall looks simple and comfy so I imagine this wasn't a huge issue wearing for long periods of time. For starters, I LOVE the wig Kay has up at the top. It's a cute style going down to her shoulders and has a lot of waves added on to it. The ears being added up at the top is such a perfect addition to it too! The name of the game color wise is a whole lot of pink and white which you'll see in both the arm sleeves & boots but I'll get to those in a bit!

Cosplay Showcase: Byndo Gehk's Swimsuit Squritle!

When Byndo Gehk announced she was working on a Swimsuit Squirtle gijinka for Colossal Con, I was instantly excited! She previously made a Totodile gijinka in the same style for the same con either last year or several years ago. As such, I really wanted to see how Byndo would recreate the iconic Water starter from Pokemon. Let's just say the final result is just oozing crazy levels of CUTE! Since this is a swimsuit, most of the material Byndo used is that shiny latex/vinyl you can find on well...most swimsuits. Therefore its perfect for absorbing water and doesn't get damaged. The main center piece is yellow with black lines that make the turtle pattern seen on Squirtle. Over on her back she has an adorable shell backpack and Squirtle's tail right on her butt! There's frilly ends for both the leg and arm ends of the main suit.

For her arms and legs, Byndo created similar coverings combining the bright shades of blue and yellow. The heels being worn are covered in blue with the same frilly pattern in yellow that's wrapped around them. I love how her wig is an even lighter shade of blue complete with a yellow bow in her hair. To show people that nostalgia feel, Byndo even had Squirtle Squad glasses created for her and fellow cosplayers that were part of her group! SQUIRTLE SQUAD RULES!

Byndo certainly knows how to pose for Squirtle and I just love her energy and smiles shown in them. The con itself looks to be tons of fun and I can tell Byndo had an absolute blast wearing this. The water shown in the background really works well with the cosplay and makes the colors pop lots more! I really REALLY want to be in a Pokemon shoot with her someday as my Greninja gijinka. Water Pokemon unite! Enjoy the rest of the pictures guys :D.

Seriously, from the bottom of my heart thank you for all the endless love and support for my passion in writing and making this last way longer than I had anticipated. I want to be a distinct voice in the cosplay world and this is the best way for me to express the appreciation and love for all the cosplayers I know and have met in my time, traveling to conventions. You're all aware of the amazing things cosplay has given me and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon. Thank you...so so much :D <3
