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. This to help signify Melinoe's placement as one of the Silver Sisters. You'll notice that the ...

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
