Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

Cosplay Feature: Holly Lauryn's McCree!

Overwatch is the prime example for cosplayers going absolutely nuts over. As such, I have another genderbend of McCree as done by the super cute Holly Lauryn! This Aussie was someone I was introduced to by one of my amazing friends also from the same area. Holly's version of McCree is pretty similar to other interpretations in terms of outfit setup. The breastplate is mainly a half crop top with long brown pants and a single armor piece on one of her legs. The chest piece is done in a dark gold color with silver accent lines along each segmented piece. In addition to that, there's a small red jacket that's worn slightly over it. There's also the BAMF buckle that's placed in the middle of a thinly black belt. A gauntlet can be seen on one of her arms with a single plain glove on the other. I imagine Worbla and foam were used as materials for some of these pieces.

I love how solid the boots look though I hope they were comfortable to walk in. The gun prop is also impressive to look at as well. A double barrel revolver I feel is the right classification of it. Holly's rocking a long and beautiful brown wig which is covered by a standard cowboy hat. The cosplay is topped off by a long red scarf which Holly is wearing off to one side. The hat is also adorned by by small piece done in gold. Holly's definitely working it in the posing department. Giving off some pretty sassy looks. Most likely she's pissed about her teammates not getting on the payload.

Holly did a fantastic job on this cosplay and I'm glad to have gotten the chance to discover her. I do hope you all enjoy the other pictures I have to share :D.
