Cosplay Feature: Shir0gami's Meta Knight!

Photo by RandomBystanderHere As someone who both is a huge fan of Meta Knight as a character in addition to having cosplayed as him years ago, I am ALWAYS gonna shout about any other takes on the famed swordsman. Shir0gami is one such person and created an amazing gijinka of him for this past MAGFest (yep, still on that event!). It's funny how for Shiro, Kirby Air Ride was her first exposure to the character as noted in one of her pinned posts on Instagram. Starting off the cosplay, you have Meta Knight's imposing mask which is the form taken for this cosplay. Shiro has a face mask done perfectly for MK in both the design and grey coloring. The visor slit gives her the ability to see which hopefully she was while in movement. Man, it's hard for me to not compare it to mine years ago and how what I made is vastly inferior to this XD. After the visor, you then have the iconic cape which includes to high propped up collar. This portion has a white layer for the opposite side t...

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.
