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: Kate Sarkissian's Bakugo!

Many times, Bakugo from My Hero Academia gets the Rule 63 treatment and cosplayers are overjoyed with that fact. So today, I've got Kate Sarkissian rocking the exploding king and holy smokes does she look KILLER! Kate for starters has a super cute bob cut wig in a blonde shade. Sticking out the back are exploding pieces of fabric in terms of the design. These are possibly attached to either the silver collar around her neck OR the chest piece on the back side. The neck piece is silver with a few black holes added on. I'm curious if the material used for this was super comfy so Kate could just rest her neck when needed. The design of the chest-piece is very interesting, converging in the middle with an "X" pattern. Of course you get a healthy amount of underboob because of it XD.

For the pants, Kate has long cargo pants on with a plethora of additions added. Some of this includes an orange belt with grenades attached to it. This is further enhanced with green straps traveling down and then being wrapped around her thighs. You also see kneecap armor for each leg done in silver and some armor straps right above her boots. With all that being said, it leaves me left with the crucial pieces for Bakugo in my opinion.

Of course I'm talking about the giant grenade gloves that Kate has for each of her hands. What you see looks to be giant grenades covering her entire hands. Pin/handles can be seen on their sides which is one crucial part to Bakugo using when activating his quirk. Surrounding her hands look to be lots of foam for comfort. There's also green gloves seen with some orange lining in them. I really love the paint job/weathering done on the grenade arms, definitely has that used/metallic look!

All the photos are sunny in its background and Kate looks like she's had a TON of fun wearing and shooting this character. Sex appeal aside due to the female version, I really love how she looks and the craftsmanship on parts of this cosplay is just stellar! Check out these other shots <3
