Shutting One Door, Keeping others Open

UPDATED ON 8/20/21: Facebook, Patreon and Blog IG pages have been shutdown/discontinued As the COVID pandemic rages on and cons are even shutting down into 2021, it got me thinking on a drive home one night about how I'd feel with even coming back to blogging. When cons eventually do come back at some point. Truth be told, many of the posts and content I shared here could be transferred over to more discussions via my podcast CosplayBytes. I've been blogging my love for games, cons and cosplay for 7 years now and maybe it's time to say goodbye for now? My podcast has gotten me some incredible opportunities as a member of Press for conventions, and the rapid love I've had for streaming is also taking up a lot of time now. On top of multiple personal things on my end, I don't think I have the energy to keep this up even post COVID you know? The very first cosplay centered post I wrote was on Jessica Nigri's Deadpool, and since then it's spawned over 800 posts

Cosplay Feature: NebulaNeko's Vaporeon!

Christmas may have come and gone, but that's not stopping me from writing about cosplays for you guys! Here, I have NebulaNeko in a stunningly cute Vaporeon gijinka that I wanted to talk about. Mainly since as many are aware, I'm a sucker for Pokemon cosplays ESPECIALLY if the Eeveelutions are involved! For the water type, Nebula is of course covered in a ton of blue with varying shades. Starting at the top, you have a light blue wig with a crown placed on top. The crown consists of Vaporeon's fins which are a main element of the creature's design. The wig has one long ponytail that's set to her side. A collar piece of sorts immediately follows with dark blue being the base alongside a gold trim. You can also view a pearl necklace placed on top of this section. Surrounding this are even more fins with a blue trim followed by gold etching on top of white.

It looks like there's also a small jacket connected to the collar piece. Same colors and trim patterns are applied here. Seeing full shots of the cosplay, you can probably get an Arabian nights feel with the whole design. This includes the small top that's of a normal shade of blue plus the darker trims. Nebula's arms consists of various bands of fabric, with blue taking residence on her upper arms. They kinda look like mini floaties for the pool! The bottom section kicks it off with a belt that's colored in blue and gold, alternating in a pattern. Dead center here is a heart shaped stone/locket. This drapes down the sides into a beautiful layered look.

You've got blue, gold and white for the top, then a normal shade of blue is placed on the bottom part. Her legs are covered by a puffy translucent pair of pants, light blue in color. Similar bands seen on the arms are shown around Nebula's ankle, topped off with comfy blue shoes. There's also multiple shots I have which show off the tail beautifully. It certainly looks stuffed and hopefully wasn't too much of a bother during convention travel!

Other pictures show off even more of the tiny gold details that NebulaNeko added in places like the side flaps and collar piece. Her posing includes various hand gestures and some comfy laying down shots as well. You can get a strong sense that the Arabian theme was what she was going for (hence the cosplay album titled Arabian Vaporeon). The concept was done by BluC on deviantart!. Either The photos are absolutely stunning and made me an instant fan of her work :D.
