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: Vanity Fox's Bunny Suit Umbreon!

Cosplayer Stella Chuu created an Eeveelution Bunny group for this past Katsucon and got several others to join in on the fun. Vanity Fox/Casey Anne was one of them, and I have to say I love the result that came out of it. Casey's chosen Eeveelution was the dark type Umbreon and she wears black so well! Much like the other outfits in the group, the concept is basically Playboy Bunny style except well, Pokemon colors. Casey has had some experience with steel boning corsets (unless this was the first one in which case I apologize) so the main covering piece looks incredibly well done. In addition to the corset, she also has flimsy/see-through like leggings which is ideal for the concept of a bunny suit. The little inserts of yellow throughout the cosplay are favorites of mine, from the shoes to the cufflinks.

Casey made sure to capture Umbreon's design in this so of course ears and a tail were added. They look to have been done with a very silk/smooth like material. I imagine a headband was used to help secure the ears. Around her neck is a black choker with the center design being Umbreon's signature yellow circle that's seen throughout his body.  The long black wig looks beautiful on her too! Casey certainly got the poses down with ease. I don't think I've ever seen this sassy side of her before! Hands on her hips along with a backside pose which you'll see down below!

I'm happy that Casey got the opportunity to be a part of an awesome gijinka group. Hoping that maybe more cosplays of this type are down the road for her? Whatever happens, Casey always manages to impress me with each new cosplay she makes and I've really enjoyed seeing her talents grow. She's an awesome cosplay friend/sister to me ^_^. Enjoy the other pictures guys!
