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 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.
