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 Showcase: Haybear Cosplay loves Harley Quinn!


When a cosplayer specializes in one character, it often gives them a chance to really get creative. Countless takes on the character, whether they're canon designs or something completely different, it allows them to stretch their cosplay brain a little bit. That's why I wanted to focus on Haybear Cosplay for today and the many variations of Harley Quinn! From her recent movie outings to other comic appearances, Haybear certainly seems to have an affinity towards the character. For instance, the image above is taken from Margot Robbie's take on Harley from the Suicide Squad film! Complete with the tye dye shirt and Daddy's Lil Monster plastered on the center. The hair looks super soft as well and I feel like this is her actual hair and not a wig. The pigtails are done via cute red and blue bands!

The makeup is also on point with the white covering and red/blue eye makeup. Something similar is done with the Arkham Knight outfit Haybear is rocking on the right! Red and black are the main colors against white portions in the collar and shoulders. It looks like she also has a corset going on which is fully black with some red trim. Above you got those same colors alternating in the chest section. The eyeshadow here is more on the black this time around. That technique is used again in a red and blue variant for what I feel is like a biker look for Harley that you see down below.

Oh and you can be sure Haybear did the classic design from TAS! Full blown black and red jester outfit. Her facial expression is absolutely goofy and perfect for the character. The final Harley look I found that she did is what's known as Apokolips Harley and yes, that's a canon comic look. Here, some armor comes into play in the chest and head pieces. As a base, Haybear has a metal gray top with the bra piece on top. The pigtails have their ends dyed red and black with the crown centered up. Peeking out from it is a small black flap with red trim.

The skirt she has is red and black in color as are the gloves that cover the arm slightly. Here, you can see multiple black straps wrapped around the red glove. A similar design is used for the boots, each a different color with black buckles/straps wrapped around them. You can't be Harley also without her iconic hammer and it certainly looks like it packs a punch here! The handle is fully silver in color with the head having some red straps around. The sides have a protruding piece sticking out too! Haybear's devious smile is infectious and I just wanna give her giant hugs <3. Check out the other Harley shots below!
