Cartoons
Leni Loud from The Loud House
Leni Loud (voice by Liliana Mumy) is the second oldest child of the titular Loud family on Nickelodeon’s The Loud House. She is a stereotypical ‘dumb blonde’ in some ways. But her kind heart and unique skill set make up for it.
She usually wears her long blonde hair down and favors the color mint green. Her taste for fashion means that she changes her costume fairly often as well. But her most common look is a short dress, flip flops, and round white sunglasses like those worn in the ’60s.
Hisoka Morow from Hunter x Hunter
Hisoka may take his fashion inspiration from jesters but that doesn’t mean he’s here to play. He only spends his time on those strong enough to challenge him. Anything less is just beneath him.
It’s a little hard to pin down a specific look for Hisoka. He’s had more than a couple of looks that include changes in the way he layers his clothes as well as the coloring. But the cosplay written up here is completely Hisoka. Anything less would be a waste of time. And Hisoka wouldn’t stand for it!
There is a fair amount of DIY with this cosplay, at least in terms of painting and cutting. You’ll need to use yellow fabric paint around the arms of the crop top and decorate it with a heart a a diamond using purple fabric paint. Once that has dried you can cut the arms off the turtleneck so that it is completely hidden by the cuffs of the crop top. You’ll need to do some DIY with your wig as well and add in the purple sides using hair chalk.
With those done you just need white harem pants, gray leg wraps, and black boots. After that all you need is to paint on the heart a tear drop Hisoka has on his face and you’re ready to go!
Neon Katt from RWBY
“Never miss a beat!” Neon Katt (Meg Turney) is a highly competitive Huntress in training, whom Team RWBY first encounters during the Vytal Festival competition that pits top student Huntsmen against each other. Naturally, Neon didn’t hesitate to trash talk her opponents and spin around them in rainbow circles, not unlike the Internet meme she’s named for!
Eddie Valiant from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Eddie Valiant (played by Bob Hoskins) is a hard-boiled private detective with a strong dislike for toons in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Eddie is hired by R.K. Maroon to investigate Jessica, the wife of Roger Rabbit, as he believes she is having an affair. Eddie is slowly pulled into a much wider conspiracy and finds himself working closely with several toons, including Roger as they try to unravel the mystery and save Roger from the nefarious Judge Doom. If you aren’t interested in shelling out the extra dough for the replica tie from the movie, choose one with a vintage pattern in a similar color scheme.
Batman from Harley Quinn
There are so many Batman variations that it can be a little hard to keep up with. But this version (voiced by Diedrich Bader) is unique in both his snark and the way he handles Harley Quinn. He’d have to be. This Harley isn’t your usual Harley. And when the lines between good guy and bad guy get blurred, things are bound to get interesting!
Batman’s costume in the show is pretty straightforward. He has a black cowl and a black cape that he wears over a grey body suit with the bat insignia on the chest. Because the insignia is a little different from most you can buy pre-made, you’re better off painting it on with black fabric paint. A yellow belt, black gloves, and black boots round out the look. You can add some bat-themed weapons and you’ll be ready to scour the streets of Gotham for evildoers!
Pupert Pesky from The Buzz on Maggie
Pupert Pesky (voiced by Thom Adcox-Hernandez in the series and Haley Joel Osment in the movie) is the younger brother of Maggie and Aldrin Pesky. At eight years old, Pupert is a rambunctious kid with a sweet tooth who enjoys being included in his older siblings’ fun. Pupert’s costume includes a teal hat, matching shoes, and a striped shirt.
Bianca Castafiore from Tintin
Bianca Castafiore is a kindhearted opera singer better known to the world as the Milanese Nightingale, although if you ask Tintin or Captain Haddock, she sounds quite awful. Herge’s heroic comic book duo seem to have a minority opinion, though, and they’ve used Bianca’s fame to their advantage while defeating globe-trotting villains. If only Señora Castafiore, who memorizes many a famous operatic piece, could get Haddock’s name right….
Captain B. McCrea from Wall-E
In Wall-E, Captain B. McCrea (voiced by Jeff Garlin) is the captain and commander of the starliner Axiom. Like the rest of humanity’s survivors on board, he’s become extremely obese and is now confined to a hoverchair, leaving management of his ship to the computer Auto. The captain teams up with Wall-E and Eve to wrest control from the evil Auto, before piloting the ship back to Earth.
Angel Dust from Hazbin Hotel
Angel Dust (voiced by Michael Kovach) is a demon and resident of the Hazbin Hotel. With his white fur and pink markings he has a distinct look even among demons. Never mind the four (or six) arms or venomous bite!
He might be sarcastic and reckless but the heart on the back of his head isn’t there for nothing. Angel Dust knows who his people are and he’s there for them when they need him.
There’s really no way to mimic Angel’s retractable arms but you can get the rest of his look with a little DIY and body paint. A white wig and styling gel will give you his hair style while hair chalk lets you draw in the pink spots and the heart on the back of his head. There are pre-made wigs on Etsy though they do cost a pretty penny in exchange for the predone work.
The wig sets the tone for the rest of Angel Dust’s costume. White body paint mimics his demon-pale skin. A white suit jacket can be painted with pink fabric paint to mimic Angel Dust’s. Under that you’ll want a white button down shirt and add a black bow tie. White leggings, pink gloves, and black boots copy the rest of his look. Finish it off with a set of sharp fake teeth and you’re a dead ringer for Hell’s favorite pretty boy. Make sure you pack plenty of sass and you’re ready to go! Just try and stay out of the kind of trouble that Angel Dust usually gets into.
Star Platinum from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
Star Platinum (voiced by Matthew Mercer in the English animated versions) is one of the first stands introduced in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures. Largely silent and easily moved to violence, it is incredibly powerful.
Star Platinum doesn’t wear much but creating a cosplay for it takes more DIY than you might expect. You can achieve its purple skin either through the use of body paint of the use of a purple body suit with paint only on your face and neck. If you use body paint on your whole body, be sure and grab a pair of purple shorts to wear under its white loincloth.
It also wears elbow protectors, knee protectors, and shoulder pads. You will have to spray paint standard knee and elbow pads with purple spray paint. The shoulder pads need to be painted gold, however. And you can add the purple curling stripe on his shoulders with foam or cardboard painted purple and glued in place with a glue gun.
After that it’s just a matter of cutting the fingers off white gloves, putting a gold scarf around your neck, adding a gold belt, slipping into some white ankle boots, and putting on a black wig!
