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

Why She's my Favorite: Mink the Satyr

I'm 100% adamant in the fact that Mink the Satyr is another amazing individual who I'm ever so blessed to know. I honestly can't remember how we met but I do know that our first encounter was at NYCC with her as one of the Gem gals from Steven Universe! In addition, she also wore her incredible Ninetails gijinka to that same convention. Through long FB chats and phone calls, I'm so glad she's been a part of my life for as long as she has been. Mainly with my own insecurities and helping me make decisions I've made to better myself. Not to mention helping my blog expand with collaboration posts and being a guest on CosplayBytes several times! She's a master of horrible puns, and a wizard at REALLY creating authentic cosplay pieces. I currently have reminders of what went into her Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn as I'm writing this piece. The effort Mink put into that is just insane.

Mainly, Mink the Satyr is known for her incredible Pokemon gijinkas. In fact, that's pretty much the only thing she's created as of late. I know I'm not complaining <3. Whenever I have a shortage of posts to write, she's always there to lend a hand in providing me with SUPER in-depth write ups on some of her latest builds! She offers such amazing advice both cosplay wise and IRL tips as well. I genuinely want to thank her for helping me in my recent struggles since things I've dealt with are less prevalent thanks to her giant heart <3.

I've got some shots I wanted to share in addition to some convention photos of the 2 of us :D. Enjoy guys!
