Description Another shoot of me as X-23 (X-Force version).
Unfortunately I was in the middle of the lawn outside the con (so my background is crowded, sigh), but I like how the claws are shown!

Photo by Raffi
Model: myself.
Taken at Romics 2013 Spring Edition - Rome.
Costume is handmade, the claws and the pin were made by =TsunadeShirahime

X-23 belongs to Marvel.

Amazing work cosplaying my favorite Marvel herione.

I especially love that you chose to cosplay her in her X-Force outft - It's one of my favorite outfits for X-23!

A shame you didn't add her footclaws as well, but oh well. I can understand that it wouldn't have been easy walking on them without them falling off.

NatMatryoshka In reply to SilentMortal [2013-05-07 18:05:40 +0000 UTC]

Oh, thank you very much! It's my favourite outfit too, I like it more than the Marvel vs Capcom one...
Ahah, you're right XD actually I've decided to make them soon for the "big restyling", so maybe the next time I'll add them!

Thank you again, I'm really happy you liked it

Oh, I personally love every outfit X-23 ever wore. The X-Force outfit, along with her Evolution costume and this one: [link] just so happend to be my favorite outfits of her.

Well good luck on that! And you're welcome. :3

That one is amazing! *___* I love the style, I hope to find clothes suitable for this version Also for the one, simpler (with leather jacket and white shirt) designed by Sana Takeda...
Oh, thankies! *-*

SilentMortal In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-07 19:14:57 +0000 UTC]

I know right? I ADORE her outfit in that wallpaper. She looks so beautiful in that outfit. ;_;

As for the other one one your talking about, it looks like this:

With jeack closed: [link]

With jacket open: [link]

As you can see, she wear a green top underneath the jack, not a white shirt. ^^

NatMatryoshka In reply to SilentMortal [2013-05-07 19:38:26 +0000 UTC]

Oh, this one is good too! But I was thinking about this, the version shown in her solo comics [link] ... once I've changed my wig, I think it could be a simple version! Even if I'd like to cosplay the "goth version" on the wallpaper, too *-*

SilentMortal In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-07 20:15:58 +0000 UTC]

I guess that one is good too. Whichever you want. ^^

(I'm the one who made the handclaws)
We chose not to make the feetclaws because if we did we'd probably have to cut part of the boots or glue them permanently to make the claws stand, that's the only reason. We will try to figure out an alternative method in the future.

Now I leave the word to *NatMatryoshka , since she's the cosplayer!

SilentMortal In reply to Ailisea [2013-05-07 17:11:27 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I figured it'd be difficult to make that work. You did an excellent job with the handclaws though!

I have loved both pictures of this cosplay that I've seen. You're an incredible X-23, and you've done a great job on making that costume--Particularly the X logo, which I couldn't see as easily in the other photo, but looks clean and wonderfully done.

Thank you very very much! I'm sooo happy you liked my cosplay, and the outfit too! *__* I love Laura, so I can't say how much I'm happy about your compliment <3
The X-logo (and the blades too!) are some of my best friend's masterpieces, she's very skilled and helped me a lot!

I've loved her since I saw her in X-Men: Evolution, and it always seems as though most fans don't. It's wonderful to see any fanwork dedicated to her, and well done fanwork is even better. And your cosplay is just lovely. Thank you and =TsunadeShirahime very much for spending the time on it. <3

Thank you so much for all your compliments! We put all our efforts in making the costume, I'm glad you appreciate it! We'll strive to improve it even more during the future, that's for sure.

Oh my gracious! You're the Belarus cosplayer! (I was doing some gallery snooping). I remembered that picture of Belarus in the snow from earlier in the year--I mod an Hetalia group, and I remembered thinking that it was a shame it wouldn't fit with our group's theme. You're fantastic.

Very nice cosplay of one of my favorite Marvel characters! Never been a huge fan of the X-Force design, but you pulled it off excellently.

I love X-23 too, she's probably my favourite Marvel character ever

Lilfut In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-07 12:23:28 +0000 UTC]

See the funny thing is that my dad's comic collection is pretty much exhaustive until like the early 90s when he just stopped reading comics, so I didn't even know X-23 existed until I played Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (she's my main along with Firebrand and Spencer).

NatMatryoshka In reply to Lilfut [2013-05-07 12:34:31 +0000 UTC]

The same for me! I first heard about her by chance (in a Jamie Alexander's interview, where she said she love playing Marvel vs Capcom 3 XD), but after I started to read her solo-comic and I loved it, maybe because I feel similar to her. So... I finally decided to cosplay X!

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Lilfut In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-07 16:01:01 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, her solo-comic was pretty great. I just think she has an interesting story.

NatMatryoshka In reply to Lilfut [2013-05-07 18:00:37 +0000 UTC]

I think so! I especially like her stories drawn by Sana Takeda and Mike Choi, their styles are beautiful!

Do you have any specific suggestions outside the self-titled series and Avengers Academy/Arena?

NatMatryoshka In reply to Lilfut [2013-05-07 22:13:48 +0000 UTC]

Mmh... just today I've read Target X - here in Italy was published in a single volume - focused on X with her cousin Megan and her aunt Debbie as major characters, with Mike Choi's drawings... Honestly, I don't know if there are other series with her, except the ones with Gambit, Jubilee and FF! But I'd like to read more about X *-*

Lilfut In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-07 22:15:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I read that. Innocence Lost, too.
Also, dear god X-23 and Gambit make such a perfect team.

You're totally right! I hope they will work together again, 'cause they're perfect!

Lilfut In reply to NatMatryoshka [2013-05-08 00:19:18 +0000 UTC]

Though I've never been a huge fan of Gambit/Cable-style "vaguely-defined powers". I prefer like Cyclops and Magneto, where it's immediately obvious what powers they have.

NatMatryoshka In reply to Lilfut [2013-05-08 13:23:09 +0000 UTC]

Well... maybe creators need to mix characters with "great powers" with ones like Gambit and Cable XD
But Magneto is one of my favourite characters, I love him!
