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.

Cosplay Feature: Rachel Nycole's Raven!

When cosplayer Rachel Nycole was working on Raven from Teen Titans for Anime Revolution, of course I got excited. I pretty much have typed that exact same sentence with many cosplayers who do DC related cosplays XD. In any case, Rachel's Raven is superbly purple which drew me first in the photos that followed the convention. Here you have her standard uniform seen in both the comics and hit cartoon. The black one piece suit includes long sleeves with a purple cuff for each wrist. There's also the royal purple shade with her cape that encircles pretty much the whole of the outfit. Held together by Raven's infamous brooch, it looks truly extravagant when it's flowing in action. Speaking of which, the brooch looks to have been done in resin or through a much easier effort.

The brooch is replicated alongside Rachel's belt which is positioned loosely around her waist. Her wig is of a much darker shade of purple and matches perfectly with Raven's hair style. She also has with her a lone gem placed on her forehead too! This looks to be one done in plastic and has some adhesive attached on the back in order for it to stay in place. Rachel appears to have also used some body paint to darken her skin in some areas to match Raven's skin. Either that or it was done in post editing. Either way, some of the shots like the one on the left look insanely epic.

Rachel always does such a stellar job with her cosplays and being as big of a fan I am, she never disappoints. The other photos show off her figure as a whole very well and Rachel does a fantastic job in the posing department. Check out the other photos to see what I mean!
