Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

Cosplay Feature: Lindsay Elyse's Blood Elf Priest!

Turns out I did a feature on Lindsay's other Blood Elf priest design she made a few years back! View it here!

For BlizzCon last year, cosplayer Lindsay Elyse once again showed her undying love to World of Warcraft. With constantly playing it, she took to task making another Blood Elf Priest! What makes this stands out for me however, is that this is Lindsay's character in the game! Yup, you're looking at a very skilled Discipline Priest in the flesh! It's been a very long time since I've played WoW so chances are, I do not know the names of the gear pieces Lindsay constructed. The cosplay itself is one beautiful gown. The color scheme a white base with golden trim on the edges and going along her front. There's also a nice light shade of brown on her sides. I love how gorgeous the patterning is and how it's implemented throughout the cosplay.

The pieces on Lindsay's front have silver buttons on the end points. Not to mention her sleeves have an added belt like wrap near her hands. A golden strap rests softly across at the top of her chest as well. Based on the pictures, her crown is definitely golden, and I can tell based on its texture that Worbla was used to construct it. I love the points that extend upward from it. Lindsay has a gorgeous blonde wig that has some curls and I really love how it looks on her. I actually can't tell if it's a wig or her actual hair since that is also blonde.

Prop wise, Lindsay is seen in most of the pics carrying a mystical book she made. The designs on the front and back are definitely magical as is the added red stones on the corners. Most likely, it represents the Tome item that can be equipped by spell users in the game. Looking at her poses, Lindsay has her arms spread far apart making a calm stoic face, with smiles thrown in here and there (it's really cute you guys!). I have many more pics for you guys since overall I loved how this turned out. Lindsay nailed this outfit perfectly and once again shows how much she loves the franchise it came from :). Enjoy guys!
