Cosplay Feature: Lisa Mancini's Magik!

The Marvel Rivals cosplays keep on coming with various iterations of Magik done by cosplayer Lisa Mancini. Specifically, I have three versions that she's done over the last year or two since the cosplay was made & debuted. I myself am not too well-versed to the character so I'm mostly gonna be focusing on the outfit structure and how it's formed around Lisa. For starters, Magik's base costume starts off with a long platinum blonde wig with some wings added on top. Most likely this is done via a headband piece added in. Her main chest piece looks to be a tank top base in black with an armor chest piece layered on top. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms. There's also different pauldrons on the shoulders. One of which is smoothed out with what I believe is the X-Men symbol on one and the other is covere...

Cosplay Showcase: Ireland Reid's Mileena!



If there's one thing I can attribute to Ireland Reid, it's that she really puts her all into her cosplays. I imagine literal blood, sweat, and tears go into her recent builds. Her cosplay I have today exemplifies that mindset. Done as one of her cosplays for Patreon, Ireland touts her Mileena from Mortal Kombat X as 100% accurate down to the the details and sewing. Having known Ireland for awhile, I have no doubt that what she claims as true. Everyone's favorite sexy ninja with the messed up face is seen in her iconic deep pink suit with ample amounts of revealing skin. From the chest area down towards the lower area, Ireland's outfit is all one piece aside from the face cover to the pieces on her legs and arms. Along her upper arms are small bands done in black with a gold trim along the edges and sides. The arm coverings go a long way traveling up past her elbows. Black fabric ends these pieces with gold trim. Upon closer looks, it looks like a thicker leather/vinyl like material was used for the black. Her face mask also has a black trim design that resembles fangs. It actually looks like this is raised a little to give a 3D appearance.

The gold trim on her arm pieces travel all the way down right to her knuckles. Going further down introduces garter like pieces with a fishnet in the middle. Surrounding it are black pieces similar to what's on the face mask. The leg pieces are done in a very similar fashion to her arm covers. Gold trim traveling down up the middle with pink surrounding it. Aside from intense builds, Ireland has one of the most devoted body figures I've ever seen. Being my fitness inspiration, she works to the bone and really has Mileena's sexual appeal and fit physique down to a T.

The jet black wig and yellow contacts really add a fierceness to the whole cosplay. The one piece suit has an intricate design with criss cross pieces along her stomach and wrapping around her backside. Prop wise, Ireland is dual wielding sais with a fierce look in her eyes. I admire Ireland as a whole so so much and she once again proves how much she puts into her cosplays. I tried to gather as many pictures as I could so I hope you'll all be in awe of Mileena here <3
