Hey Skwad!
I VOLUNTEER!!! I VOLUNTEER!!! ...I volunteer as tribute.
So I thought I’d do a bit of an amalgamation of #katnisseverdeen from the 3 books/films. Like I’m aware I’ve done my hair/makeup like the first movie, but this outfit is from the second 😂 Whilst I know Katniss isn't wearing her #mockingjaypin in this scene or has her bow on her in this picture, I thought I'd add them to make this #cosplay easier to identify! 😅 Surprisingly, I can’t seem to find a lot of pictures of this outfit that #katniss wears to do comparisons with but oh well! I felt like posting a #sidebysidecosplay and this photo is a lot closer than the last #cosplaysidebyside I posted! 😅🤷🏻♀️
Also, as we head into the colder months, it's handy to have a more weather-appropriate cosplay to wear to winter cons (looking at that time I turned the Christmas lights on in my town in early December in my Rebel Harley cosplay and I'm pretty sure I caught hypothermia - ok, granted bit melodramatic of me)!
And may the odds be ever in your favour...
Like Wednesday, Katniss is a much more serious character than others I've cosplayed, which is only natural given her circumstances. ...However, as proven I cannot for the life of me take a serious picture! 😂 Honestly I clicked on the timer without realising and this was the first pose that came to mind with 5 seconds to go!! (You can also bet that this will be the first pose that comes to mind any time anyone pulls out a camera on me)😅😂
Considering this is a #cosplay I threw together out of things I already had in my wardrobe, I’m surprisingly quite proud of these photos, I look like I actually know what I’m doing! 😂🙌 Honestly, I felt like my face in this first photo was such an “oh for Pete’s sake” face, which is something I feel like Katniss does a lot! 😂

Also, unlike doing Harley action shots, it's a lot more realistic and concentrated, the expressions are far more minimal, and restrained. Which of course, all makes sense, given it's, while fictional, a very realistic end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it scenario as opposed to Suicide Squad's (2016), while arguably higher stakes, much more comic-book-y, completely over-the-top climax.
I'd probably curl my hair or crimp it or something before I plait it next time to give it more texture, but given this was a first try of the wrap-around plait, I don't think it was too bad!
Lastly, I hope everyone in the UK has made their vote count today! You guys have one hour left to go vote if you haven’t done so already. All political opinions aside, I hope you make your voice heard and vote responsibly. It is more important than ever to make your voice heard, so please don’t squander this opportunity!! (Unless, y’know, you want to end up with a government like the Capitol) 🗳😱👏 Remember:
Hope is the only thing stronger than fear
