Special thanks to Riki for sending over the mask all the way from Atlanta.

We gotta hand it MC for bringing Ms. Marvel to life. She really did a superb job on the costume. She was like a walking / talking Ms. Marvel... as in.

Funny to note, our last "in Flight" shot was Rogue. Knowing how these two characters related to each other in the comics was a strange coincidence in our shoots.

The cityscape shot was taken from the observation deck of 30 Rockefeller, home of NBC Studios.

Psylocke Ver. 1


Psylocke was one of the first cosplay shoots we ever did three years ago, and I thought she deserves a revisit, given the kind of experience and knowledge we have earned through the years. I hope we did her character justice this time around.

The third time's a charm. We have attempted to do this shoot twice before with awful results. Got to pick up alot of learnings along the way though. We also didn't give up on the idea for the potential it had. I guess it had to take time, the maturity and to meet the right people to get the concept off the ground properly. It was Carlo's work that provided the last piece of the puzzle.

I had to learn some concepts of fashion design to get the costume right. Given the flaws of the construction from the previous versions, I made the design and functionality, taking into account Alodia's comments on how the previous version worked out for her.

Special thanks to Harvey Tolibao and Carlo Pagulayan for helping us with the art direction, and just providing a ton of laughs.

Back in 2008, we also had Rhian cosplay as Rogue for my Pop Nostalgia exhibit. Somehow, I felt that she just had to reprise her role again. And we weren't mistaken.

Edit (10.15.11): Chris Claremont, one of the creators of the XMEN and the creator of Rogue, signs the print in NYCC 2011.
