Cosplay costumes: Small Details Make A Big Difference
What goes behind the scenes of a cosplay isn’t as simple as one may think. The making of costumes, accessories and wigs are definitely not an easy task! Cosplayers always seek out to perfect their look and that goes the same for Costume Department of the popular Hong Kong TV series, Ice Fantasy, in order to bring the drama characters to life!
Superhero cosplay costumes for sale
This was our Third Fan Expo – we don’t count that first trip because we didn’t actually get inside the building. I’d made several bold claims about how I was definitely going to wear a superhero cosplay this year, but for various complicated reasons, I didn’t.
It’s a big thing to decide whether to buy the Marvel costume or not, actually. Some people go to events like SDCC and Fan Expo for the big name stars. This year Fan Expo wasn’t stinting on those, bringing out William Shatner, John Barrowman and Carrie Fisher, as well as other big names from series like “Once Upon a Time” and “The Walking Dead”. And, of course, there were big names I had no clue about, like the Superman cosplay costume and real comic book artists.

Age of Ultron is a B-plus, and here's why.
Now, because this is me and I tend to dwell on the things that annoy me, I'll probably have more to say on the negative side of the balance sheet, so I want to establish right up front that as much as I dislike the problematic stuff, I consider AoU a pretty good movie overall. If the first Avengers was an A, this is a B-plus. It's good, okay? You'll have fun. It's just not without its problems, is all. And one or two (or three) of those problems are significant.
All right. Here we go. This is your last spoiler warning ...

Where to buy the high quality Cosplay Costume?
Time to talk about the Justice League Costume and the day at the pre-premiere!
I remember the day they announced the movie costume. I have been waiting for this for so long, and it's finally here. I've already seen the movie twice, and I'm already eager to see it again!
3 weeks before the pre-premiere I was asked by SF Studios Norge to make the for the Marvel costumes creening. I was overly excited, but also nervous knowing how little time I had. I'm always trying to pay attention to detail, and use as much time as I need on something to make it look good. I would call myself a perfectionist, cause I tend to do details over and over until I get it the way I want it to be.

You will be able to meet and greet with Wonder Woman
Looking for a fun activity for your children? Head on out to the Governor’s Square Mall at 2801 Wilma Rudolph Blvd for the Meet the Justice League event. This will take place on August 12th from 11 am to 5 pm, about 30 minutes from Fort Campbell.
You will be able to meet and greet with Wonder Woman, Batman, and Superman. There will also be a costume contest at 2 pm so make sure your kids dress up like their favorite Justice League character. They could win a fun prize. Please visit this link for more information and make plans for a fun event with your kids.
There have been several articles and YouTube videos about the possibility of Tessa Bonham Jones playing Supergirl in the upcoming Justice league on November 17th. They went to great lengths to scoop WB in what was strictly a guess based on the cast listing of Justice League on imdb.com. Here is a look at the list. She is listed as a “Young Girl” below in the page.
I have long wanted to make a Fancy Dress costume for my kids. And I kept thinking “yes yes, when they are older”. Then I suddenly realised, that when they are TOO much older, they will not WANT to wear a homemade fancy dress costume, however cool I think it is. So NOW is the time. I seized the moment. And decided, pretty much on a whim, to my Red Ted a BATMAN costume! How to best go about it.
Ever pragmatic person that I am, I didn’t want him to outgrow it in 3months. SO. The basis of this costume is a black T-shirt and black trousers. Which most kids have in their wardrobe. And as he grows, he can just change into a bigger black T and a bigger black pair of trousers.

Suicide Squad got the character DC costume
Suicide Squad got the character DC costume and the characterizations themselves right, but I can’t praise them spinning Joker and Harley’s relationship as a love story any more than I can praise Jared Leto’s horrible costume, which more or less goes with his horrible Jim Carrey impression which was supposed to be the Joker. This leads me to my next point about studio meddling. It’s widely publicized how WB messed about with Suicide Squad and Dawn of Justice and completely smothered them in a bid to grab some cash and set up fifty future movies. This is a problem that doesn’t seem to be going away.
Justice League is already beginning to feel like a made by committee film with how they are incorporating humor and changing tones and whatnot. It doesn’t feel like they’re doing it because of the feedback and to respect the source material, but because they have to if they want to keep filling in seats and keep fans happy. Just because they gave each character’s costume a ‘new movie, new costume!’ upgrade and brightened the colors on the said costume doesn’t mean the film is fixed. Marvel costume is infamous for putting visuals above storytelling, and coupled with studio meddling, you have another potential disaster.
And that’s not even counting the fact that the film is already overstuffed, with how it needs to introduce the core cast, especially characters like Cyborg and Aquaman who the casual audiences know nothing about but both of whom have been given great costumes), introduce the villain, build character, reintroduce Superman (the black costume’s appearance not guaranteed and wrap everything up without looking like a blatant The Avengers ripoff. And let’s not forget the newly added Wonder Woman cosplay who again has a great looking costume—man, DC does some great costumes) See the issue? Marvel made it look easy because they had a very strong foundation, and even then they could have messed everything up. How they didn’t, is a miracle.
There is no reason Justice League can’t prove me wrong and be an absolute smash. I’m hoping it is, because I need good DC movies. But with all the circumstances and evidence surrounding Justice League, I can’t be confident. I’ll buy my ticket anyway, and maybe that’s all WB is aiming for anyway.

Justice League Costume is completely excusable
Now I will say that the Justice League Costume is completely excusable, because not liking a sombre story and preferring a lighthearted one is a personal preference, but the rest are pressing problems. Of all DCEU movies, Man of Steel is arguably the best, as it provides a Superman for a new generation whose costume thankfully does not involve wearing red underwear inside out like the costumes of yore without the camp, and while the film never fully capitalizes on its themes, that’s not an issue for me.
My issue, is that Superman doesn’t feel like Superman. Superman is supposed to be this bright and hopeful character who DC costume, and Henry Cavill’s Superman just wasn’t that – all he did was mope, kill General Zod and no, crying about it in the end does not make it okay and show shocking disregard for human life while destroying Metropolis in his grudge match against Zod.
And this sad and depressed version of Superman was carried over to Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice too, ensuring they were sticking with this version of the character. They may have brightened up his costume for the sequel, but his attitude remained as bleak as his old costume. This darkness was present in Batman too (who has a fantastic comic accurate costume, but it made sense there, and while this Batman was satisfactory, he killed people which is again way, way off! And I’m not even going to talk about Wonder Woman cosplay, I just can’t handle that disgust.

National Superhero Day is but one excuse to wear your cape
As Wardy puts it, “There are many ways to be a girl. We’ve done princess to death, now girls want to show us other facets of their personalities.”
This Friday marks one of those big days that all comic book collectors, superhero movie fans and sci-fi enthusiasts eagerly look forward to every year; National Superhero Day. Originally created by Marvel Comics,the makers of such iconic superheroes as Spider-Man and the X-Men in 1995, National Superhero Day was set up in order to commemorate real-life superheroes (the ones that don’t wear capes or spandex), including firefighters and lifeguards, the types of people who protect us from harm on a daily basis not to resort to cliché, but they’re the real heroes!.
To pay tribute to the world’s true superheroes, people are encouraged to dress up as their favourite fictional heroes as they go about their business on the 28th of April. A growing movement has led to many people dressing up as the likes of Captain America and Batgirl and doing good deeds, such as visiting sick kids in hospital or taking part in charity fundraisers. Others simply use the day as an excuse to turn up to their office dressed as Batman or Superman and acting as if this were a completely normal thing to do you may need to check in with your boss before trying this though!
National Superhero Day is but one excuse to wear your cape, cowl or colourful spandex disguise. Between Halloween costumes, movie premieres and the many comic book conventions that take place around Ireland throughout the year (including Dublin Comic Con, MCM Comic Con, Limerick’s Brocon and Kerry’s K-Con), there are lots of occasions where you might see Supergirl or Deadpool strutting their way down the street. Long gone are the days when wearing costumes in broad daylight was just for kids.

Every year, the National Retail Federation conducts a survey to determine the most popular Halloween costumes. After an eleven-year reign, ‘princess’ has been dethroned — by superheroes.
According to the survey “More than three million children will dress as their favorite action or superhero, 2.9 million will dress as their favorite princess and 2.5 million plan to dress as a cat, dog, bunny or other animal.”
no-princesses“Princesses don’t do a whole lot, their stories can only be reworked in so many ways. Girls have always loved adventure and being the heroine,” according to Melissa Atkins Wardy, author of Redefining Girly. “Girls have not changed. Instead marketers have gained a better Wonder Woman cosplay of who girls are and are no longer feeding them a gendered narrative.”
Wardy isn’t the only person who has noticed marketers are feeding girls a ‘gendered narrative.

Justice League Costume for her to wear and eventually
We debated which Justice League Costume for her to wear and eventually settled on the DC Bombshells version of Black Canary. For those who aren't as familiar with comic books, this is a line of statues, and now comic covers, featuring various DC Comics superheroines and villains designed in the style of 1940s pinup girls. Because Green Arrow is one of my favorite superheroes of all time she and I have costumed as him and his lady-love, Black Canary, so this was a natural costume for us to consider. Plus, the costume was fairly simple and sexy without being too revealing.
Cosplay or costume play came about from Captain America mask but for the past decade or so, it is making headlines everywhere in the West particularly as we see more RPGs taking over the entertainment industry.
The growth in cosplay is seeing a massive boom, brought about by the usual culprit: social media itself. Rather than just play as the character, these no.1 fans want to be the character: dress like them, act and move like them, and pose like them in particular. Add a bit of photography DC costume, strategic lighting, Photoshop and you would have brought your favorite anime character, superhero, movie villain or game character to life!
