Will - Illusion of Gaiaby *supernovadobe

Photography / People & Portraits / Cosplay

(Written for this piece)

Will removed his flute from his pack and played Lola's Melody. The air was stark and crisp- but the melody did nothing more than calm his nerves. It seems that specific sound only works on children of the flower.

What a waste- it was worth a try.

(Comments and Credits)

So I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to finish this for two reasons:

I decided to do it four days before con and- I didn't know if I could make the flute with my hands.

I decided to test it out because honestly- It's been a while since i've done anything but PT, and I was pretty shocked to find that despite some swelling my hands did relatively well when I was whittling away this prop. I know it's a small achievement cosplay wise but to me this cosplay will probably always be very important because it is one of the FIRST cosplays since my injury I have been able to fully create with my own hands without hardly any pain.

I'm really glad for the change.

I photoshopped out the chord to the flute. So that it was not going to distract as much. Honestly the picture looks MUCH BETTER without it >>;

Illusion of Gaia is an olllld game - and it's probably responsible for my addiction to repetitive music lol. It was released Sept 1994 by Enix. Back when Enix was it's own entity. It had a huge impact on my younger childhood weirdly enough- back then I didn't have any idea about specifics on storytelling so I didn't question some of the dynamics I do now. (Why is he walking into space? Shouldn't he think that's weird?)

However regardless I wanted to give back some of what I had experienced by creating this costume. (I also wanted to learn about making grommets eeeeh) This isn't exactly the background I wanted- but the composition of this picture was perfect for what I was going for with the flute.

The tunic was a quick make- super simple- as well as the gauntlets- the accents for those were only fifty cents! I re-used the same shoes from Link and Re-used my wig from Elekid. The tights are from Flynn Commandant- I grabbed some bias tape from my drawer and fashion taped it onto the Link shoes in order to get the look that Will has. The belt is also from Link. I already had extra pieces of wood lying around to make the flute- so honestly- this costume cost me fourteen dollars.

I like cheap cosplay ~!!

Thanks a ton to:

I was grateful for the time I took from you to give me these photos. ^^!!!

I kno supes rare right? ugh

I usually don't pay much attention to cosplay, but I'd have noticed and recognized this on the spot! (mostly - due to the pixel art, I always imagine his flute being a purple-tinted metal. XD)
