Cosplay Feature: Kels Cosplay's Rumi!

Photo by Raymond Ho One of the biggest crazes to have happened last year was the arrival of K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix over the summer. Between the insane visuals and catchy songs, it's no surprise that the characters themselves latched onto so many creators. Of course this led to a cosplay explosion after the film's release which continues on to MAGFest. I figured at some point I'd want to share a Demon Hunters cosplay here soon and Kels Cosplay came in with a fantastic look at Rumi, the band's leader & prime vocalist. Specifically you have the outfit worn during the last act of the film. Kels also looks to have done a slight variation featuring some makeup but I'll get to that later on in the writeup. The first version of the look includes a bedazzled black crop jacket with various golden stripes and accents throughout. You also get to see various gold chains traveling down the jacket.

Cosplay Feature: MegaWatt Cosplay's Steampunk Jasmine!

Photo by Gotham City Madman
While I was at NYCC last year, I recall seeing an absolutely beautiful Jasmine cosplayer when I was hanging around at Ireland Reid's booth and chatting with her. It wasn't until last month that I finally checked out her work and as expected, I was blown away. Guys, meet MegaWatt Cosplay and I thought for today, I'd take an even closer look at her Jasmine cosplay. This was actually done in the popular style of Steampunk! As far as designs go, I know that Megan worked with another cosplayer who lived close by in both coming up with the design and creating it. The cosplay has the standard/classic color scheme that Jasmine is known for. Blue with areas of gold on the bra and skirt. The steampunk elements come in the form of the top coming down from her neck and the corset. Speaking of which, the corset adds in a beautiful figure for Megan which is one of my favorite parts of the cosplay.

Much like Lisa's Jasmine which I featured late last year, the bra is also another favorite part. The style/frills on the golden trimming is absolutely beautiful. Going towards Megan's twaist is a dark brown belt with a spiral design for the belt buckle. The bottom area consist of blue shorts and a skirt that wraps around her sides This also travels down her back side. The corset and top section are of a lighter shade of brown and have buckles throughout to fasten it together. They're crafted extremely well! Megan also nailed Jasmine's iconic hair style with the wig selection. A small tiara is placed around her head with a blue gem in the dead center.

To really complete the cosplay, Megan is seen holding a small decorative tiger. This is a direct reference to Jasmine's loyal pet Tiger Ra'jah of course! The pictures I have for you guys really capture how beautiful Megan looks in the whole cosplay. I'm really glad I decided to follow her work, chatting with her is a blast and I know we'll meet sometime at a convention this year. Enjoy the pics guys!
