Snakes Lair || Hakka's reign

Title: Genis-Vell as Captain Marvel, Hero Again costume variant
Artist: Hakka ( prue84 )
Fandom: Marvel
Characters: Genis-vell
Rating: G
Tagline: After becoming the universe biggest villain, Genis returns on the side of the heroes.
Related fanworks: Cosmic Awareness.
About the manip: This is the costume Genis acquires in Captain Marvel (vol 5) #18 when, after the successful "intervention", he regains his sanity after his Mad God phase.
The costume has a brief life as the series ends with issue #25 and when Genis appears next, in New Thunderbolts, he's returned to his classic red/blue costume.
Notes: Variant that happened when I was re-working the Cosmic Awareness costume and wondered how it would look in silver. I liked what I saw, so I decided to make a variant of it, playing a bit with effects to make sure it wasn't just the same manip with a change of color.
The bigger star reflects the different size from this specific costume, when compared to the classic costume, I used a different setting and texture for the fabric pattern, and also different power effects. Technically, Genis powers are always on the yellow/orange hues, but I liked how the red photo-filter worked on the whole composition, so I left the red hue, that enhances the whites on the powered-up hands.
Also, the blue hue of the skin is slightly lighter, and the stars of the cosmic awareness are different.
Notes 3: Although ready in July, it was held back one month so to post it the day Genis-Vell: Captain Marvel #2 was released.
My goal would be make the Photon, Mad God/Kree and Genis(no cosmic awareness) variants to post each month the same day of the issue to celebrate the release of the miniseries. I don't see myself managing it, but never say never.
Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Manip): Nothing much to add here. Same hurdles of the Cosmic Awareness costume, as this came to be as a color variant of that one.
The fabric pattern looks better on this one, for some obscure reason. I still don't know how to make realistic fabric but this is better than whatever I was doing before (as my first attempt at Genis from 2013 can attest).

Title: Cosplaying Hubbies II: Captain Marvel & Rick Jones
Artist: Hakka ( prue84 )
Fandom: Marvel Comics, Star Trek (reboot)
Timeline: Mirror (2.5)
Pairing: Captain Marvel + Rick Jones, Kirk/Spock
Characters: Jim as Rick Jones, Spock as Captain Marvel
Rating: G
Tagline: What happens when a certain captain of a certain starship talks his bondmate into cosplaying... Part II
Series: This is the second in a series with Spock and Kirk cosplaying, a series that will eventually will pair with the one-shots series I'm writing (Apollo and Middy is already done). Well, it'll be a series If I can find the bases and costumes for certain characters.
About the manip: This manip is part of the Reboot Mirrorverse me and aleniakalain are slowly writing together.
Rick Jones, friend of all superheroes and your neighborhood sidekick. Very human and very super-powerless (mostly).
Captain Marvel, tube son of a legendary hero with the same name, alien, half-breed, Kree. They really don't share any bromance the like Spock would usually require to at least consider cosplaying. But he might've been won by the way one is related to the other.
During a very complicate, all-continuum threatening war, Rick has taken a fatal energy blow. A Captain Marvel, coming from the future and who has tried all the time to change the past to especially avoid this from happen, has to again share his life-force with Rick to save him. They become like one, sharing molecules: when one is on Earth the other is in the Negative Zone, when in front of any mirroring surface they see the other's reflection, they speak in a way that could resemble telepathy; both with a life of their own (well, fine, Genis doesn’t really have a life, besides booze and women), but completely dependant from each other. One a part of the other, in the most physical meaning of the word. They share so much, and in such an intimate way, that they piqued Spock's curiosity. They just have what he would mostly want to share with Jim - though the downside would be no more sex, and Spock doesn't really agree with the idea to stop taking his delicious nepik ("submissive"), let alone not be able to live on the same physical plane at the same time.
Let's just say that this couple-not-couple was Spock's pick. Jim wasn't this happy, considering all it took him to dress as Rick was to procure a pair of gold bands and snag something casual from his closet while his hubby had all the fun with the costume, the wig and the bodypainting. He may have pouted some hours because of this, even because he likes Genis more but Spock's been adamant: the stronger (and the alien) of the two was going to be him.
Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Manip): This may cause some heavy thunderstorm. It's taken me few hours to put this manip together and, instead of doing as always - namely, let the manip sit on the HD for months - I've decided to just go and post it before I could trash it. I'm not satisfied with the result, at all.
