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: Kohalu's Dark Pit!

If you wanna talk about incredible looking wings on a cosplay, then look no further cause Kohalu is your guy for that area! You may have seen his work before such as his super awesome Charizard gijinka or his gender-bend Morgana from League of Legends! Some cosplays like the latter and one I have for you today throw in ridiculous wings and I believe some actually work in terms of Kohalu retracting and expanding them! Kohalu's Dark Pit caught my eye since it's a character I wasn't expecting to be cosplayed even with his inclusion in the latest Super Smash Bros. To be perfectly honest, I felt that his character as a whole was a waste since he's just a clone to regular Pit. You get a sense of both regal and menacing from this cosplay. The main portion consists of a tunic like piece with a top and a bottom.


The waist and alongside the bottom area can be seen wrapped in sashes detailed in purple/gold. Arm-guards can be seen close to his wrist as well as wrappings alongside his sandals. The sandals also have a white fur lace near the top. Getting to the wings themselves, I'm not entirely sure on how it was done but there was definitely a lot of feather covering. I'm also unsure if this is one of his wingspans that can retract/expand as well.

Nevertheless, the wings look super impressive and the whole "evil angel" vibe comes to me the more I look at them. Kohalu's wig is a short style in black with a golden circlet wrapped around his head. His iconic weapon (more so iconic on Pit) is in the bow form and looks to have been done with foam or maybe even wood? The detailing on it is incredible as is the coloring. Again matching the purple and gold seen in other areas of the cosplay. His posing shows off the strength of the character and I especially love the close up shots as well.
