Xenosaga: KOS-MOS 02

Monday, November 9th, 2009

xenosaga cosplay - kos-mos 02

Cosplayer Ilonka from Puerto Rico emailed me her cosplay photos some time ago. She plays KOS-MOS from Xenosaga, showing her version 4 skeleton. Some people might think this is version 2 or 3 because of the wings from her Tertiary Weapon System, but those were photoshoped into the final picture.

Thank you for your contribution, Ilonka! We look forward to more of your cosplays soon!

Bleach: Kurosaki Ichigo

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

bleach cosplay - kurosaki ichigoKurosaki Ichigo has natural orange hair that always gets him into fights with bullies. He doesn’t care what other people think about him and doesn’t seem to mind fighting bullies either. He met Chad when  they were still young, who was also a target for bullies because he refused to fight for his own sake as promised to his grandfather. Ichigo then decided to make a pact with him that they would fight for each other’s sake.

I couldn’t believe this was one of Jin’s works when I first saw it. She really does know how to take on the character she’s cosplaying, so much that it’s hard to tell it’s her! Great job, Jin!

Mirror’s Edge: Faith Connors

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

mirror's edge cosplay - faith connors by miss fawn of deviant artA 24-year-old Eurasian girl who works as a “Runner” for a living, Faith Connors acts as a messenger for the revolutionary groups who avoid using telephone and email to contact each other. She opposes the totalitarian government regime the same way her parents did, and working as a Runner allowed her to work on her ideals.

Meet Miss Fawn, Deviant Artist, Fashion Designer, and Model. This is a rather impressive cosplay of Faith, and it gives you a pretty good idea as to how intense the game play can be. At least, I think so anyway. Thank you for sharing this!

Naruto: Hyuga Neji 02

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

naruto cosplay - hyuga neji 02Highly proficient in the Gentle Fist style of combat, Neji is the prodigy of the Hyuga clan who has the ability to replicate the styl’e’s most powerful techniques through simple observation. He further refines these abilities and fix its inherent flaws.

Beautiful cosplay! I wish I could read the Chinese characters on the lower right as it’s probably the cosplayer’s name. Good job on this though!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Tifa Lockhart 02

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

Though she plays a more minor role in Advent Children than in Final Fantasy VII, Tifa did battle against Loz and later, against Bahamut SIN. She has shorter hair than her original character design mainly because animating long hair was proven to be quite difficult.

She looks like an older, more mature version of Rinoa to be honest. But I think a few people will get mad at me for saying that. Beautiful cosplay though! And the characters for the cosplayer’s name means “little fish”, Xiao Yi. Great cosplaying!

Rozen Maiden: Suiseiseki 02

Monday, April 20th, 2009

One of the few dolls who oppose the Alice Game, Suiseiseki is the older twin of Souseiseki who values her sisters more than becoming Alice. She has difficulty expressing that love towards others and tends to insult them instead.

rozen maiden cosplay - suiseiseki

You might recognize this cosplayer from Singapore… her name is Aisling and I featured her as Hinamori Momo from Bleach back in January. This is only her second cosplay attempt, and I think it would be safe to say we hope to see more of her, yes?

The World Ends With You: Shiki Misaki

Monday, April 13th, 2009

the world ends with you cosplay - shiki misaki The seemingly happy-go-lucky partner of Neku, Shiki loves to show a positive attitude towards others in order to hide her own feelings of inferiority. She loves fashion and design, and she is very good in sewing… so much that she sews her own clothes!

You might recognize this cosplayer. I featured her some time ago as Sakura from Tsubasa - Reservoir Chronicle. Lil Krn Yuna also makes a convincing Shiki, don’t you think?

I hope everyone had a good Easter. Holy Week got me pretty busy again, but I’ve been receiving a lot of contributors lately. Look forward to more cosplays soon!
