Cosplay Feature: Renee4Atlanta's Ironheart!

Happy Halloween to you all! To end this month of features, I wanted to share this INCREDIBLE work by Renee4Atlanta that she helped create and wore at this past Dragon*Con not too long ago. Coming off of Ironheart's debut series, Renee took on the task to recreate the updated look and man is it intense! When you look at the photos, you can first find that of course Renee has a more comfy layer of clothing which the armor pieces are layered on top. From the top, Renee has the iconic Iron Man helmet which is colored red for the outer shell and the mask being a shiny silver shade. From the photos I did find, I don't know if the mask can actually come down or if Renee made this to showcase an open look. Getting down to the rest, you can see how some of the armor is segmented off/layered. Red looks to make up a good chunk of the outer layer whereas the inner portions are silver.

Cosplay Feature: Poseidon Cosplay's Aquaman!

I can always appreciate a fantastic Aquaman cosplay and oh man does Poseidon Cosplay fit the bill on that part. Recommended by my wonderful friend Jawjarrose, here we have the recent movie version of Aquaman. Parts of Poseidon actually resemble actor Jason Momoa so that makes the outfit as whole work so much! Full armored up, Poseidon is full of color with a brilliant mash up of green, gold and blue. There's also various textures for each part of armor which is just insane. My guess is worbla and foam played some part in its creation. The shoulder pieces are layered with smaller pieces to create the full part. The paint job overall is just absolutely phenomenal and I commend Poseidon for doing a wonderful job bringing Arthur Curry to life.

If that's Poseidon's real hair then oh man, talk about easy additions! The arm sleeves are one of my favorite parts, mainly due to the deep blue shade it's in. It's all about patterns when you get up close shots of him and the armor. I can only imagine how tedious making this was at certain parts. The trident prop is at the right size for someone like Poseidon and his height. It also stands out in some of the photos, particularly the ones of him with the waves coming in.

The leg armor looks massive as well. Layered up pieces probably by velcro. Either Poseidon had to put on each piece individually or managed to do so as one full piece. The picture to the left seems to show the trident before its inevitable paint job into gold. The ocean side photos are freaking amazing and gosh I just love this cosplay so much. Check out Poseidon rocking it in these other photos :D.
