Cosplay Showcase: OfficialGothBarbie's Steampunk Mercy!
Every so often, I find a cosplayer that I just instantly click with and fawn over like crazy. Today I have one such gorgeous gal and that's OfficialGothBarbie. Proclaiming herself as a big tiddy goth gf, she has some really amazing cosplays. I just had to choose one of her Overwatch outfits since she clearly has a passion for the franchise. Even going as far as being a Blizzard endorsed cosplayer for her Ashe! Rather than focusing on the newest hero, I wanted to go to Mercy. This skin is more on a Steampunk edge and isn't really in the game after checking. However, it is a popular design done up by several artists and I've no doubt Barbie had to take one of them and recreate it. A black Victorian style dress makes up most of cosplay with a clear opening down the middle up front. Mostly it covers her backside.
The black dress also has white frills in that old timey fashion that you probably recognize from elsewhere. Up top though Barbie has a white dress top with a gratuitous opening in her chest. Directly after that is a black corset that's very common for female steampunk designs as a whole. Said corset has an opening for the white top to rest on with straps going around her shoulders. The sleeves have the puffed up look and are followed by leather gloves in a mixture of black and brown straps.
The corset is covered with various buckles and studs. There's also a blue buckle of sorts on the side. Barbie has a lot of Mercy's signature props going on in this outfit. The staff for instance has a blue glow at the top but mainly has a simple design and a gold/bronze color scheme. The top of the staff is three pronged all folded down. Attached on her back are the famous wings that Mercy has in pretty much all of her skins. These look a little more simpler and mechanical. Fitting for the steampunk look!
