MKX Scorpion Cosplay

OK, I’m very excited about this one : I’ll be in Burbank, CA on January 24th for ESL MKX Season 2 Finals where players from all around the world will compete for 100,000 USD! :D No, I’m obviously not part of the ESL MKX Pro League! lol (Insert your fantasy here.) BUT I’ll be there as a guest, wearing my Scorpion costume to welcome all the players and hopefully bring them good luck! Don’t miss the show and get your ticket here.

What about a little Californian sun in the middle of my French Canadian winter?

Who is gonna leave French Canadian winter behind to enjoy Costa Rica’s sun in December?  I’m super happy to announce that I’ll be a cosplay guest at Playcon, Latin American Entertainment Convention! Del 18 al 20 de diciembre en la Antigua Aduana, Costa Rica.  And I’ll bring the improved version of my Scorpion costume from Mortal Kombat X.  Still don’t speak Spanish perfectly, but I can understand when I read it and I recognize many words and parts of sentences if you speak slowly.  I’m improving!  You guys will have to teach me new words when I’ll be there.

Sexy Marie-Claude Dakimakura pillow case

MC_Bourbonnais_Sugar_Shack_Themed_Dakimakura

Right on time for those of you who have started looking for Christmas gifts, I received a new batch of my sexy sugar shack themed dakimakuras! The pillow case is 5 feet long, but the breasts are bigger than life!

For those who like my glamour stuff and have no idea of what Japanese pop culture is all about: a dakimakura is a body pillow case portraying a sexy anime character. One pic on the front, one pic on the back. ;) Hug the pillow!

For all my fans outside Québec: sugar shack is a traditional and very popular thing here in Québec!  A sugar shack is kind of a cabin in the woods where sap collected from sugar maple trees is boiled into maple syrup. (By the way, unless you live in Vermont and maybe in Maine, chances are that you have probably never tasted real good maple syrup. The corn syrup served in American restaurants for pancakes makes me wanna cry.) In a sugar shack, they will serve taffy on snow (you have to Google this) and complete breakfasts/meals that you traditionally eat with a lot of maple syrup: eggs, pancakes, bacon, ham, sausages, French toasts, baked beans, meat pie, pea soup,crispy pork rinds, etc.  And my favorite: real maple syrup candies with a maple leaf shape and small cones filled with maple butter.  Happiness is in chocolate AND maple butter. And here I am, covered with maple syrup, laying in French Canadian traditional deliciousness… Be ready for your next party, get your MC sugar shack dakimakura! lol

MKX Scorpion Cosplay at PGL Cosplay Open

MC_Bourbonnais_Scorpion_Cosplay

I never thought that I would visit Romania in 2015! I was delighted to be received as a cosplay guest and judge for the PGL Cosplay Open costume contest that was organized during Dreamhack Romania at the end of October. A cosplay contest in a video game competition deserved a judge wearing a video game related costume!  With the latest Mortal Kombat X that had came out, I couldn’t resist temptation and I made myself a gift: a Scorpion cosplay.  A challenging leather work and a collaboration with a local jeweller for the custom, hand made silver pieces of the costume. So many details and there will be more. Distressing, skull and spears… Once it will be completed, this costume will be, by far, one of my personal favorite.

Thanks again to the organizers of PGL Cosplay Open who gave me the opportunity to visit Europe again, to discover Romania and to meet amazing, passionate young cosplayers from Romania and around.

 Visit my Instagram account for more work in progress costume pics and find out about Vincent Zimmermann from Joaillerie Zimm’s who added an incredible level of details to my costume by providing custom silver buckles and pieces for this cosplay.
