Cosplay Feature: SpookyMoogs Bikini Sonic!

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 ...

Cosplay Feature: Randomonia Cosplay's Genderbend Axel!

Photo by Brian Ngai Photography
At NYCC last year, I happened to run into this super awesome cosplayer who did a genderbend of Axel from Kingdom Hearts! As such I proceeded to geek out as did she since I was wearing my Riku cosplay at that time. Months later we finally started chatting and holy crap she's now one of my best friends EVER! Meet Sami, and her incredibly badass Axel! The concept Sami went with was to make a giant black ballgown of sorts. The upper portion involves a corset like piece with silver rows crossing over her sides. There's also the hair which it looks like her own just dyed that deep hue of red which Axel has. Obviously though one of the main pieces to this cosplay are the signature chakrams that's a staple to the character.

These weapons were made with a flake board and created with help from one of Sami's friends. The precision is simply amazing and I love how picture perfect they came out. Like directly from the game. Sami is seen making the right poses as well for Axel. These include holding up the chakrams up near her neck like in the top pic. Also having them droop down with a relaxed pose (how Axel moves/fights in the game!). Long black gloves were also added. Plus there's some makeup on which was used to recreate Axel's markings on his face.

Overall I'm in love with this cosplay and how it introduced me to another lifelong friend :D. Definitely would love to one day do a proper shoot with her and my Riku, I NEED KH SHOOTS YOU GUYS :O. Enjoy the other pictures I got for you all!







Please go check out Sami's work over on her cosplay page! She has lots of outfits planned along with working on cosplays from Homestuck! Sami's got so much talent and I can't WAIT to see her at NYCC this year <3.
