Cosplay Feature: MissBriSolo's Starfire!

So I've actually been a HUGE fan of Bri's work for a really long time. Not just for her cosplay and obvious insane beauty but her other passion in life. That being fitness and sharing some of her gym routines. She's also been a big podcast dream guest for me on my show so it's surprising to me that I've taken this long to share her work on the blog. At the time of gathering people to share, Bri had mentioned online she was working on a build of Angela from the Spawn comics (though having now been integrated into Marvel Comics). Specifically though the character has just been added to Marvel Rivals' roster and so her design really spoke to Bri. By the time you're reading this, she actually finished the cosplay and shared full shots so I'll be doing a write up on that sometime in Nov or Dec. So what other character of hers do I gush about in the meantime? Uhhhhh.....Starfire? Cause GOOD GOD SHE LOOKS SO GOOD!

Cosplay Feature: Iricia's Orochimaru!

My amazing friend League of Larcy has helped out tremendously in directing me to brand new cosplayers to share for you all! One such lady is Iricia and her awesome Orochimaru cosplay from Naruto that she created/wore not that long ago. Coming from the Naruto series, Orochimaru was definitely one of those characters who freaked me the hell out when he first debuted. Do you guys remember his main arc when he fought the 3rd Hokage all those years ago? Legit I felt terrified. Iricia here does a phenomenal job with this version of the character. Mainly it's one most fans of the series are familiar with. This version of the Snake jutsu user is a pretty basic outfit with a tan piece of clothing that's over what looks to be a black bodysuit. The sleeves are visible along with her neckline. Around Iricia's waist is one key part to Orochimaru's look. That being the odd purple contraption that bends around in weird ways like a pretzel. Puffy fabric looks to be its main material!

I should probably mention also that large snake prop she's carrying around huh? Representing one of the many snakes Orochimaru summons for assistance, I'm pretty dang amazed at how it was constructed. First glance for me and I notice the soft textures. As you travel up to the head, the lines etched in I feel give you even more textures to work with. Another guess I have is that wiring was used to help the snake keep it's round/bendy shape. The purple and black colors stand out strong when placed next to Iricia's overal pale look with the clothing and her makeup.

Speaking of which, the makeup is absolutely incredible. Iricia is covered in full white kabuki like paint. The eyes are of that creepy yellow shade which strongly resemble a snake. If you were to see the character in motion, it's easy to see how much Orochimaru loves snakes XD. The photos have a bright sunny background when they were taken. I'm incredibly thankful Larcy gave me some amazing individuals to share, I hope you guys enjoy the other shots!
