Cosplay Feature: Courtney Michelle's Leone!
I've got another Akame ga Kill cosplay for you all today! My friend and cosplayer Courtney Michelle made a Leone outfit sometime around last year and once photos were taken I just had to feature it. Here, Courtney's Leone is shown in various poses along with the different forms the character has in the show. The cosplay shows a lot of skin and is broken up into various parts. The pants and short top are both black. The white sleeves matches the ones traveling down her legs. However, the lower area is set up that her back portion is completely exposed. This allows Leone to be more freeform with her fighting style. In the picture above, Courtney is portraying her beast form. The ears and paws look to be made of a very soft material. I have to say, she did an amazing job with its construction.
I also really love the wig Courtney has. It matches Leone's look and the curls going down are just the cutest. There are hints at some armor along her upper arms. A belt is seen to help hold up the leg coverings. Brown boots make up her feet protection. Her smile is adorable and she really captures Leone's personality.
The anime definitely seems like one of Courtney's favorites since she has tested out making a closet cosplay of Esedeath as well. The scenery/background in the photos is just about perfect as well. She really did an amazing job on this cosplay and I hope you all enjoy the other pictures I picked out :D. To me, this shows what Courtney can be capable of in the future and I can't wait to see where cosplay takes her!
