Cosplay Feature: Shiro Cos as Melinoe!

So I knew I was gonna get insanely addicted to Hades 2 but I wasn't expecting to essentially clear it all out a little over a month after it released. Having done so much in the first game it didn't take long for me to get back into the rouge-lite groove and do run after run to progress its story. So naturally that led to me wanting to find cosplayers that portrayed the main antagonist Melinoe. Shiro Cos was someone I came across early on as I was searching throughout Instagram with the game's hashtag attached and man does this look freaking awesome. To kick things off, the 3D files for some of the pieces like her weaponry in ADDITION to the killer shoot location were provided by cosplay collective  The Dangerous Ladies ! Shiro has a short bob cut blonde wig with a small leaf crown placed on top. That crown also has a silver moon symbol placed directly in the middle of it.

Cosplay Feature: Variable's Aeris!


I apologize that it's taken me this long to feature the absolutely gorgeous Variable for you all again. Last time around was with her practically perfect (in my opinion) Power Girl. This time around however, she created an incredible Aeris Gainsborough from the iconic Final Fantasy 7. For the last remaining Cetra, Variable created the long pink dress and the jacket that's over it. The jacket itself is is of a darker shade of pink/mixed in with some red. Breast pockets and buttons are all throughout it. On her wrists, Variable has some metal cuffs and another can be seen on an end sleeve to the jacket. What's cool about this cuff is that there are small dots around it. My guess would be that it references the Materia slots that are a part of the game's equipment.

For Aeris' iconic hairstyle, Variable ordered a deep brown wig and styled it as such. Bangs are seen on either side and the back has the long ponytail all tied up thanks to the pink bow. The front of the wig has this very circular shape to it as well. A thin black strip is wrapped around her neck and has quite the extravagant bow. The long pink gown is also buttoned up until the bottom area near her legs so that well...she can walk easily!

The photos are perfectly fitting for Aeris, character-wise. The setting is near a pool but the rocks and small trees nearby make it very earthy. Plus, Variable looks absolutely innocent with her facial expressions and again, I truly love that! The pictures were taken by Eurobeat Kasumi Photography so Variable most likely debuted this or wore it at a US con she attended a few years ago. I do hope you guys enjoy the other photos!
