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. This to help signify Melinoe's placement as one of the Silver Sisters. You'll notice that the ...

Cosplay Feature: Kiki Cosplay's Mad Moxxi!


Stumbling on amazing cosplayers is kinda rad to me. So of course when I saw Kiki Cosplay pop in my Recommended tab on FB, her Tavern Moxxi instantly got my attention. Overall, I've featured Mad Moxxi on the multiples but I don't think her Tavern incarnation is in the collection. This version of everyone's favorite busty bartender is seen in the Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep DLC for Borderlands 2. I can't even remember if I had played through it or not but I can recall it being a nerdy batch of pop culture references. Kiki here did a stellar job on accurately creating the outfit. What's got me shocked is that this is her very first cosplay she made :O. The style of Tavern Moxxi is similar to her canon appearances. The red fabric looks to be a gorgeous shade of deep red in velvet like material. Sleeves and the main piece were done up in it.

Poking out of the main body piece is a white puffy bra piece in place of the staple black bra. There's a small black trim here and the white poof appears again on her upper forearms. White stockings cover the legs with tall brown boots as well. Also seen on her arms are bracers done in purple with gold trim on each of the ends. Much like the other outfits, there's an underwear flash on her side as well. Plus a belt/pouch that's wrapped around and positioned off on a slant. The red main velvet piece has a blue square patch on the bottom and is tied up in the front with yellow string. Sort of gives me corset vibes.

Lastly you got the long brown hair and a small brown cap that's decorated with feathers of various colors. Kiki also did a fabulous job with the cel-shading and makeup. There's the pink blush mark on her cheek plus the iconic heart on her chest and eye droplets. The bright background in these shots work to some extent as sometimes looking at them hurt my eyes XD. Kiki overall crushed it <3.
