Cosplay Feature: Lisa Mancini's Magik!

The Marvel Rivals cosplays keep on coming with various iterations of Magik done by cosplayer Lisa Mancini. Specifically, I have three versions that she's done over the last year or two since the cosplay was made & debuted. I myself am not too well-versed to the character so I'm mostly gonna be focusing on the outfit structure and how it's formed around Lisa. For starters, Magik's base costume starts off with a long platinum blonde wig with some wings added on top. Most likely this is done via a headband piece added in. Her main chest piece looks to be a tank top base in black with an armor chest piece layered on top. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms. There's also different pauldrons on the shoulders. One of which is smoothed out with what I believe is the X-Men symbol on one and the other is covere...

Cosplay Feature: Ireland Reid's Link!


Cosplayer Ireland Reid has been creating outfits for conventions like crazy. For today, I had to share her Rule 63 Link cosplay from the Legend of Zelda. Not only does Ireland look killer in the outfit as a whole, but the photos are pretty freaking amazing. For the iconic Hylian, Ireland has the traditional green tunic over a white suit. Leather boots and gloves also are a part of the cosplay, these in particular look beautifully crafted! Some of the main things that stick out are of course the Master Sword and Hyrulian Shield. Both of which were made by Ireland herself. I have to say, they're pretty dang spot on. For posing sake and whatnot, I imagine both were done with foam and carved out. Possibly Worbla was involved, though I'm unclear on that element.  The top piece has a small insert with exposure to the chest for a slight sex appeal for this genderbend.


The blonde wig Ireland has is a very light shade and looks absolutely beautiful on her. With the added Ocarina in her hand, all signs point to the Ocarina of Time version of Link being cosplayed here. The green hat is also hard to miss since well, that's another iconic part about the character. As I mentioned above, the photos shot by ModelMosa look downright beautiful. The sunshine is really present here and gives off a pretty glare effect. Hell, most of these photos would make for an awesome wallpaper!

I have to wonder how fast Ireland cranks out her cosplays since I know she's a very busy lady. She pulls off Link very well and the cosplay is just gorgeous to look at. Would love to see this in person (along with her Yoko from Gurren Lagan because OMG) one day! I really hope you guys enjoy the pictures I picked out for you!

I can't recommend Ireland Reid's work enough for you guys. Meeting her last night was a treat and I miss her constantly. She's so sweet and down to earth, not to mention inspiring on many levels for me personally. I look forward to most likely seeing her at NYCC this year! <3
