Cosplay Feature: Holly Bean Cosplay's Sypha from Castlevania!

Photo by David Ngo By the time you're reading this, I will have just gotten back from my first convention of the year, PAX East! You can hear all about it in a brand new episode of CosplayBytes! For now, let's go back a little bit further to MAGFest from January for even more gaming related cosplays. Holly Bean Cosplay here brought along her cosplay of the devoted mage Sypha from the Castlevania anime adaptation aired on Netflix. By the time of this posting, the original has aired two seasons plus a spin off called Nocturne starring another Belmont Descendant. You'll notice that even if the cosplay is relatively simple in its design, I love both the pose work that Holly has done in addition to the edited photos that came out of this. Starting from the top, Holly is rocking a short orange wig with a variety of curls and wefts seen on her sides and from the back. Then you have the main top piece all in a light shade of blue and layered.

Cosplay Feature: Katastrophe Cosplay's Megara!

Photo by Neociano Photography

Katastrophe Cosplay is one of several gorgeous ladies recommended to me by friends when I asked for new people to share. It's either that, or during one of my Photography spotlights, she was a model in one of the photos. Either case, her Megara from the Disney classic Hercules, stood out to me. Mainly for her figure and how gorgeous the dress was. Not to mention how she kills it in the facial expression department. If you remember the film, Meg was just full of so much sass and possibly was a fictional crush for many young impressionable boys growing up. Katastrophe is fully decked out in a long purple dress with sashes in different areas. These sashes are purple in color but in a darker shade.

Up near the top are straps which look to be held together by small circles with a cartoonish swirl etched in. Katastrophe's wig is very voluminous and styled pretty perfectly. The yellow band is even included to get Megara's signature ponytail. The dress as a whole is incredibly long. Extending from her shoulders all the way down to practically her feet. This also leaves the arms sleeveless and I have no doubt that this is one of Katastrophe's more comfier cospla

The sunlight in the photos takes prominence and make her look like she has this irresistible glow/aura around here. Don't believe me? Check out the other photos yourself! Also, Katastrophe gave me some fun facts regarding this cosplay. Not only was this one of the first outfits she created, BUT she came full circle at a past con recently with creating a Hercules cosplay :D. At the time of making Megara, she had very little sewing experience and all of this was handmade!
