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: PureLight Cosplay's Starfire!


What first attracted me to Purelight Cosplay was the abundance of Starfire cosplays she's made in her time being in this hobby. Since I mainly ship Nightwing with Starfire, it was only natural that I had to feature one of these gorgeous outfits! Which one though? I don't think I've seen her latest outfit cosplayed yet so that eventually won out in the end. This version of the alien princess is based around her look in the current series going on in the New 52. Mainly consisting of a cute top with sleeves included. Incredibly cute booty shorts make up the bottom area with long leggings for her legs and feet. I love the shade of purple that's seen here, definitely suits Starfire so well. I can't remember if Purelight said the coloring of her skin was real of photoshopped in, either way it really makes her look the part! Throughout the cosplay are spots of silver as well!

These silver areas can be seen on her chest and the ends of her sleeves. The shorts have an interesting design to them with the silver part wrapping around towards the center. Green jewels are placed both there and high up on her chest. Oh, I almost forgot to mention the gorgeous long wig she's wearing too! The length seems to go just about to her torso/stomach.

The photos themselves are pretty great. Some have Purelight against a purple background, others show her outside around a fitting scenery. As big of a Starfire fan I am, seeing this cosplay just makes me so happy. Still have it on my cosplay bucket list to do a photoshoot with a Starfire cosplayer while I'm Nightwing! Purelight's love for the character is apparent here and I hope you guys love the other photos as much as I do! <3
