Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

Cosplay Feature: Vee Cosplay's Samus!

Today, I've got a simple and cute cosplay to share! I came across Vee Cosplay's work since she often collaborates with Mink the Satyr in terms of hosting panels together at conventions. The topics they cover range from cosplaying on a budget and even some about photoshoots! Regardless, I had to check out her work to see if something caught my eye. Lo and behold, here's Samus Aran in all her glory! Getting into the specifics, the version seen here looks to be the "Justin Bailey" outfit which was known for being an unlockable skin through entering that specific player's name. Color scheme wise, it's all pink with a bright green wig. The wig itself features curls down towards the bottom portion.

Vee is rocking a long sleeved pink leotard  and matching pink boots. The boots themselves contain a single green strap which certainly make them stand out in certain shots I found! Other than that, one of the main stand out pieces has to be Samus' signature arm cannon. This takes up one of Vee's arms and travels to just about her elbow. The cannon itself is decently sized and is of a lighter shade of green, with some light up function added in. These lights can be seen traveling down the weapon and ending towards the front. More lights can be seen in a circular pattern leading up to the firing point.

Vee does a fabulous job in the posing department, and some of the pics taken were edited beautifully! Both to match the character and overall vibe of the Metroid series! I have to wonder how comfortable it was utilizing the cannon during the con. Other than that, the overall cosplay itself had to have been easy to wear! You can check out the other shots down below :D.
