Photo by Togith Photography It's the day after Christmas, winter has started and I'm ending the year with a bikini cosplay? No wait that sounds about right for me! I came across SpookyMoogs awhile ago when it came to searching for new people to share and her bikini take on the world's fastest hedgehog caught my eye, For starters, I love the wig choice being your standard fare with the long portions on the sides plus the cute little ears on the top. There's one shot you'll see later that really shows off the length of the wig extending out from the back. The ears are super small in their size & length. Best bet is she may have utilized the headband trick for having them stay in place. Then you get to the bikini portion itself which looks to be a mixture of 2 pieces. There's a one piece portion that has some space opening up on both Moogs' front and back sides. Then it looks like the normal chest piece is separate based on how it's layered next to the ...
If there's one cosplayer who's an absolute delight along with being an incredibly positive person in the cosplay community, it's Ani-Mia. I started following her work in 2013 and then met her for the first time at NYCC. Since then, I've really enjoyed staying in touch with her. On top of being incredibly gorgeous in her cosplays, she also is a strong believer in treating people well and just overall being nice in general. Mia is also an incredibly hard worker in fitness and wanting to tone her body up for her own self. It's been incredible seeing her progress along with how happy she's been as a result. Mia's been one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to working out and feeling comfortable in your own body. She recently uploaded a YouTube video which I can include down at the bottom and it really shows how much she cares about other cosplayers on top of her growing fanbase.
Mia cares so much, that she sends out mini prints and goodies to pretty much anyone who sends her mail/gifts. In promoting positivity in cosplay and the community, she recently has started bringing cosplayer appreciation cards and hands them out to cosplayers at conventions. The amount of precision and love she puts in her outfits is simply astonishing. Not to mention her giant collection of Funko Pops and ever expanding library of comics/graphic novels, Mia cosplays characters who mean something to her. Including characters from her favorite movies growing up.
To me, in addition to being inspirational for fitness, she also inspired my creation of the Aquaman cosplay I'll be debuting soon this year. I'm so stoked to show it to her and she's equally excited to see me in it! Mia's created such an impact that every Monday is dubbed MiaMonday where many fans pay her appreciation with why she's so sweet and add in some gorgeous photos of her. Having her following my work and blog is still mind blowing and means so much to me :D.
To Mia, thank you so much for everything you've done for me and the cosplay community. For being so sweet and devoted to things you're passionate about. You're beyond beautiful and have helped me through so much. Love you tons <3.
