Cosplay Feature: SpookyMoogs Bikini Sonic!

Photo by Togith Photography It's the day after Christmas, winter has started and I'm ending the year with a bikini cosplay? No wait that sounds about right for me! I came across SpookyMoogs awhile ago when it came to searching for new people to share and her bikini take on the world's fastest hedgehog caught my eye, For starters, I love the wig choice being your standard fare with the long portions on the sides plus the cute little ears on the top. There's one shot you'll see later that really shows off the length of the wig extending out from the back. The ears are super small in their size & length. Best bet is she may have utilized the headband trick for having them stay in place. Then you get to the bikini portion itself which looks to be a mixture of 2 pieces. There's a one piece portion that has some space opening up on both Moogs' front and back sides. Then it looks like the normal chest piece is separate based on how it's layered next to the ...

Cosplay Feature: Clarus Polaris' Black Widow


Marvel Rivals is honestly a huge god send for so many cosplayers and myself for just the endless amount of content being made. Whether it's hand-made or custom printed suits, creators are going nuts with bringing these memorable designs to life. By the time you read this, I'll be at PAX East this year and with it being a gaming convention, I'm curious if the game itself will make a splash this year. To help tide you guys over, I have Clarus Polaris and her insane Black Widow! Clarus I found recently through being a fellow Canadian mutual with Holly Wolf. She dabbles in cosplay on top of other avenues of content creation like commentary videos alongside her partner and of course the spicy stuff! For this Black Widow design, Clarus opted to commission a suit that's made up of the various lines & patterns that form up the overall design. In keeping with the character's original color scheme, you have lots of red and black with added hints of grey.
The center of the suit features twin red lines traveling down towards the bottom. Other red inserts can be seen in spots like her shoulder which are actually small armor pieces she attached to the suit. Most likely velcro was used here. That's not the only extra piece added in. Clarus also has a belt around the waist area which has several black circles with red inserts. They all lead to the middle piece being Black Widow's main logo. In addition, you have wrist-guards in place before the weapons come in. Clarus is wielding twin batons/escrina sticks that are black and silver alternating. Don't worry, there isn't any electrical charge in them as far as I know!

Two small black boots make up the footwear too! In terms of the hair, I honestly can't tell if it's an altered up wig or Clarus' actual hair since she's naturally a red head! What's left are the absolute KILLER poses that she strikes in nearly all the photos. Got a solid feeling this isn't the first Black Widow cosplay Clarus has done. If it is though, I am absolutely in love with the whole execution! The added jail cell like background adds a lot to the overall presentation of the finalized shots. Check out the other photos and let me know what you think.
