Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lady Luck Rikku!

If there's one thing I can count on Jess Blaze to do, is cosplaying all the Final Fantasy waifus your heart desires. She's certainly no stranger to Rikku's look from FF X-2 but I really loved this additional costume change done for the character. Those not familiar with X-2's gameplay, it involves the traditional job system from previous entries but adds in the fun mechanic of changing clothes. Dress-spheres in this case! One such job is the Lady Luck sphere which deals with a lot of abilities based on the classic Gambler job. I'm mostly assuming because it's been both years since I replayed X-2 and I don't even think I used this class in particular for any of the three main characters. With all that intro out of the way, let's get to the cosplay itself! Upon looking at the pictures, Jess mentions in one of the captions that the cosplay itself is no longer in her possession. This is due to how uncomfortable it was to wear at the convention she debuted it

Cosplay Feature: Sami Bess' Katarina from LoL!


When looking for more cosplayers to share and broaden my variety of who I normally share, I came across Sami Bess. From her Android 18, to Female versions of Loki and Ganondorf, Sami seemed like the kind of badass girl who I'd not want to mess with in a fight! With her awesome armor builds, I knew there was a cosplay I wanted to show off! Enter classic Katarina from League of Legends which I felt fit the bill nicely! Katarina's look here consists of lots of armor and leather plus a wicked cool crop top! First off, Sami is wearing a gorgeous red wig and the scar makeup is pretty dang perfect. The top part starts with a propped up collar and includes sleeves that go to her elbow. The length of this top goes to just about her torso, the remaining area up to her pants being exposed. A rad tattoo design can be seen in this section!

Getting more specific about the top, you've got a maroon red strap that's seen right below her neck and goes from shoulder to shoulder. The breastplate has a silver colored trim that looks armor like with the rest of it being full on leather in its texture. Sami's shoulders and arm guards are done in the same fashion as the bra trim, color and armor alike. The designs are spot on and I absolutely love the weathering effect she used. Also who doesn't love spikes? Brown gloves act as a base for the armguards and are detailed up in a cel-shading like nature.

Sami's weaponry is beautifully constructed with the etching on the blades spot on! Getting to the pants, Sami has a red belt with small studs around the piece. Skin tight black pants plus a strap on both legs with MORE KNIVES! In terms of the leg armor from what I can see, it's similar to the arm pieces. More spikes in an interesting pattern! The footwear look to be heels with platforms in the front. Her belt buckle is circular with a neat clasp like part on one end. The forest scenery works really well color wise as the armor really stands out. Plus Sami is out here posing it LIKE A BOSS and I'm loving every minute of it <3. Check out these other photos!
