Cosplay Feature: Renee4Atlanta's Ironheart!

Happy Halloween to you all! To end this month of features, I wanted to share this INCREDIBLE work by Renee4Atlanta that she helped create and wore at this past Dragon*Con not too long ago. Coming off of Ironheart's debut series, Renee took on the task to recreate the updated look and man is it intense! When you look at the photos, you can first find that of course Renee has a more comfy layer of clothing which the armor pieces are layered on top. From the top, Renee has the iconic Iron Man helmet which is colored red for the outer shell and the mask being a shiny silver shade. From the photos I did find, I don't know if the mask can actually come down or if Renee made this to showcase an open look. Getting down to the rest, you can see how some of the armor is segmented off/layered. Red looks to make up a good chunk of the outer layer whereas the inner portions are silver.

Product Review: Nightwing Hoodie by Mink the Satyr!


While writing my last Review on Lisa's kigu, I thought about one other high end nerd themed piece of clothing I commissioned. Having not given a proper a Review, I thought I should commit to doing Product Reviews to stuff like this from now on. With that being said, I asked my marvelous friend to at first sketch up a hoodie based around Nightwing. Basically it just included his main logo and oh man was I not disappointed with the end result. With all these hoodies and warm pieces of clothing I've ordered, my winters will be MUCH warmer for years to come. I can't recall what size I specified but at first, the hoodie felt larger than I anticipated on me. Mink even snapped me pics of the progress she was making to keep me excited!

The hoodie itself arrived late June of this year. Because I'm writing this much later, I unfortunately can't remember the full specifics of its packaging. Uhhhh a box was involved, that much I'm certain XD. The hoodie is made with a heavy fleece like material and goes just about to my hands in arm length. Not peeking over them one bit. The hoodie is majorly wide in its size, somewhat similar to how Lisa's Jolteon hoodie was. Nightwing's signature emblem is plastered on the front and back. My arms are lined with the blue much like how the character's are in costume.

The insides of the hood and up near the arms are lined with blue. The bottom trim of the hoodie is also lined with blue as well. The stitching can be visible on the inside but I find it to be very cool. I couldn't be happier than I was with the end result as I mentioned at the beginning of this post. Mink has arguably been one of the best friends I've made since cosplaying and the hoodie came to me at a time where I needed some serious cheering up, which of course happened.

Below you'll find a link to Mink's cosplay page on FB. You can message her about potential commission work, which she is currently open for! Thank you Mink from the bottom of my heart for everything you've done. Lots of love your way girl :) <3
