Tampa Bay Comic-Con 2018, Part 2!

Let's get back to my favorite finds from Tampa Bay Comic-Con!

Starting with a few video clips from my Instagram Story:

Waluigi's Piranha puppet is so fun, and I love how in character he was! (He's saying,"Check your watch, it's Waluigi Time!") The Fallout guy is Dead Exposure on IG; he and his dad make the most incredible power armors, definitely worth a follow. And the Falcon purse, well, it's just shiny. :D

Supergirl and Black Canary:

Here's the best mashup of the con: Tin Iron Man!

 (His heart has a light in it, but my flash washed it out.)

And Cowardly Thor!


:D :D :D

For my fellow Overwatch addicts, here comes gender-swapped Genji & Hanzo:

For the record, I haven't seen anyone cosplay the hamster yet. YET. :D

Two classic Disney villains:

More adorable kids - again, there were tons! - this time representing Kingdom Hearts:

Little Goofy in his yellow hat & floppy ears stole my heart. This is blurry because they were mid-swordfight, and I think Minnie was winning. Ha!

I like finding new fandoms through cosplay, so I've been listening to a little Critical Role lately. After about a week, I think I'm on episode 2? [Each ep is over 4 hours long. HALP.] However, since I started on the second campaign, I'm recognizing so much more cosplay now! Pretty sure this is Jester:

 

[AngryPrincessCosplay]

She has blue freckles! And the flower crown is hiding her curly horns.

Martian Manhunter from Supergirl:

[Thomas Blasco]

Harley & Poison Ivy looking lovely:

And on the opposite end of the spectrum, next is the most jaw-dropping, super-duper creepy, but incredibly-creative-and-beautifully-executed cosplay of the whole weekend. (That's a pun. You'll get it in a sec.)

Ready?

Brace yourself.

 Yes, they're zombies - which I usually tend to skip past. But you guys, these are zombies from the Titanic. There are icicles and barnacles on their faces and hat, and seaweed on the bottoms of their tattered evening gowns. Plus of course there's the vintage life vest & ring.

I've come to appreciate good horror cosplays, even though I hate being scared and never watch horror movies. I love the artistry, and while this concept still makes me pretty uncomfortable, there's no doubt these ladies are insanely talented.

Right, enough creepy. Let's get some cute in here!

An Eggo & 3 Musketeers for Strangers Things season 1 & 2? YASSSS.

A sweet Star Wars family:

Ermergersh.


Cinderella and Lady Thor:

This Daenerys had a dragon head on a pole. We enlisted a passer-by to hold it, so we could try to make it look like the dragon was peeking over her shoulder:

Which kind of worked?

Loving this classic Wolverine:

[Mark Knight Rises]

Barty Crouch & Bellatrix:

[Cosplay Craziness]


More kids, because A) this is awesome, and B) yay for parents starting 'em young!

I was actually next to their mom while taking this picture, and I congratulated her on raising the next generation right. ;)

A fun Marvel group out in the hall:

[Falcon: Kdiddy3300]

Leia:

And finally, Storm:

That's it for me, gang, but of course there are more photos where these came from. Go check out my Flickr gallery to see (I'll add more later; I have a backlog!) and cosplayers, feel free to download & share my pics of you!
