Cosplayers of FFXIV

Hi everyone!

most people know me as Nael van Darnus cosplayer from Gamescom and I'm back at cosplaying FFXIV characters!

This time my girlfriend and I decided to go as Au Ra male and female in starter gear.
Here is our first makeup and wig test

me as male Au Ra (yes without the horns it looks stupid I know)

The scales in our faces are just painted yet here but we are working at them at the moment. We are making them out of latex... so this will take some time.

I've also started with the horns made out of paper mache and cardstock

As you can see it's a lot of work but it's worth it!

The horns for my girlfriend are already painted... mine are still in the middle of progress... The scales are making me mad lol

While I was working at the horns and wigs, my girlfriend was making the Buttons, pins, buckles ect.

with the heatwave here it's easy to make papermache stuff... because it's fast drying... but we are melting D:

We've planned the cosplays for AnimagiC and Gamescom in germany.
sadly we just have tickets for friday for gamescom...

Are any other cosplayers out there?
Don't be shy to post your cosplays here :D

Excited to see how it turns out. Keep the pictures coming.

Ooo love your horns! Looking forward to seeing the finished project, it looks like it has a lot of potential. :3

OMG!!! Your cosplay is so amazing >M< keep up the gate work!

I'm thinking for next year's ffxiv event I'll cosplay a sylph. Having trouble deciding if I want to be a regular one or a tempered one.
