Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Noctis Lucis Caelum (Storm) cosplay
Photo taken by - Costume + editing - (me)
Most of you should've been through the Noctis onslaught at the beginning of this year. I'm very sorry in advance, because the Noctis flood is about to start again... BUT this is not the same costume as the one in Janurary!!!
Costume: My previous costume wasn't correct to my size and I wasn't completely happy weith the material, so I decided to remake this from scratch. The base material is soft pleather. The wavy flame pattern is black matte vinyl sewn on and then secured by liquid super glue. (lol superglue) Completed in 2 days. *faints*
Pouches: the pouches I had previously were floppy and fail. This time I used the matte balck plastic fabric for the pouches and attached them with buckles and belt. Completed in 2 hours.
Weapon: this is the same weapon as before. Made from pine wood as a base, with modelling clay DAS for some details and carving, toilet pipes, drink bottles, Go pieces.... etc. Completed in 10 days.
Wig again, different from previous. This time round, I bought a matte white wig from a local store and hand coloured it into silvery grey colour with graphite sticks. Completed in 5 hours.
In the end, this remake turned out nearly perfect to the image in my head and I'm so proud of the work that I did in a mere two days. It really feels like I've levelled up since the beginning of this year. *tear drops*
Hope my little spew on the costume parts helped anyone who is interested in making Noctis for themselves too!
Enjoy
