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: SpookyMoogs Bikini Sonic!

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 one piece.

Looking at it from the back, you have what looks like a checkered bikini top piece that looks to be directly underneath the blue. Outside of that, Moogs is rocking twin white gloves with golden rings being worn as bracelets. Both arms can be seen also having more golden arm bands further up on said arms. I really love the belt idea she has on her waist being a collection of rings connected together. Super high knee socks can be seen as leg wear before you get to the red crocs. Yep you read that right!

Moogs has red crocs for footwear with the holes on the top being filled up by you guessed it, RINGS! As an added prop, some shots show her posing next to a yellow ring pool float. I'm not sure which ColossalCon she wore this to for this year but that was the overall backdrop to this cosplay being worn. You all probably know that when it comes to bikini cosplays that these write-ups tend to be on the shorter side so there you have it! I also love how her posing gives the chance to really show everything off with the cosplay too!

If you're looking for a goth gym muscle mommy who cosplays to follow, then you can do just that by following Spooky's IG down below! As a final note, I just wanted to say thank you guys for continuing to follow and read through the blog this year. In addition to listening to my podcast as well. This year hasn't really been the best for me and I hope next year I can keep this up. Podcast wise it was especially rough towards this part of the year having not been able to record new episodes for you guys. There have been moments truthfully where I should maybe make next year the final one for the show? I'm honestly considering it depending on how the year goes with securing guests. There's still many dream level ones I want to have on someday. In any case, there's my mini rant, I hope you guys enjoy the holiday season. I'll be back in February :)
