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: MissBriSolo's Angela!


When I shared off MissBriSolo's work last month, it was hot on the heels of her just finishing her cosplay of Angela based on the character's Marvel Rivals design. At the time, she was the latest character added in with the new season and man was I stoked to see Bri's finished look on the character. Not just on the fact that Angela was poised to fit the Vanguard/Tank role, but Bri herself has done some insane work with fitness. Thus she felt this was an awesome opportunity to show off her work in the cosplay. Angela as a character was repurposed/retconned to be part of Thor's family after originally appearing in the Spawn comics back in the 90s. There's your quick history lesson, let's jump into the cosplay! Starting off, Bri has a head-guard at the very top that looks much like a crown. Wings extend outward on each side and it travels down the face slightly. Then Bri has a gorgeous orange/red wig for her hair.
You'll notice that her head gear is done out of a material I can only guess to be either EVA foam or Worbla. The gold coloring is replicated in various parts of the cosplay including the chest piece, a full arm and the massive spear. We'll get to that in a bit but just wanted to reference the similar material and overall makeup of each piece. Bri's neck piece looks to be two loops layered close together and colored fully in silver. All throughout these loops are X and O markings.

This loop is repeated around one of Bri's arms which then extends over to the massive battle spear that she constructed. Can I just say how freaking badass this is? You have the aforementioned loops and the spear being a straight shot all the way down. It's really the top portion that has action in the form of an inverse trident like setup. Then the other arm is fully decked out in gold plated armor with a wing extending outward towards the very top. In each of these gold armor pieces, Bri did an amazing job adding in lines and other small design details. 

Then there's the makeup which she also excelled in. From the markings around her eyes, to the battle scar on the stomach area and even the full dirt like markings on one of her legs. For pants-wear, Bri looks to have some brown shorts as a base with some overlapping belts wrapped around. Then directly in the middle you have several brown straps hanging downward with gold studs on each one's end. The photos I have of the cosplay give a small peek in addition to Bri's golden boots. Here you can also see wings extending at the top. There's videos Bri shared of the cosplay in motion so you can see everything in its full glory.





I really do want to commend Bri's incredible commitment to both her fitness journey and this insane build. She's been a huge fitness inspiration to me and the speed at which she can crank out these cosplays is awe-inspiring. If you haven't looked at her work yet, please fix that by checking out her Instagram down below!
