Geralt of Rivia and Triss Merigold
If you’re a fan of CD Projekt Red’s Witcher series, then you’re surely familiar with the romance between everyone’s favorite witcher, Geralt from Rivia, and the powerful sorceress, Triss Merigold. Though their love is not a traditional fairy-tale romance, they are beautiful together, nonetheless.
The elegance of Geralt’s costume is conveyed through his hair color, his weapons, his potions, and all of the lather from his shoulders down to his boots. But one detail you might not notice at first glance is that this Geralt cosplayer is wearing special contacts to give himself authentic mystical cat-like vertical pupils. While there are less details for Triss to execute, she nails the hair color and open-chested dress that we have come to expect from the sorceress.
Petra Venj and The Speaker
In Destiny’s House of Wolves expansion, players were introduced to a few new colorful characters. One of the new House of Wolves characters that brought a little flair to Destiny‘s story was Petra Venj. We see her above standing next to The Speaker, who most Destiny players should be familiar with as the voice of The Traveler.
Both of these costumes are expertly executed. The Speaker is a bit easier to pull off with less individual items but that doesn’t take anything away from the fact that this cosplayer was able to craft a mask and robe in the exact fashion of The Speaker. Then we have Petra Venj with her pale grayish skin, color contact glazed eyes, purple hair, Queen’s Wrath armor, Queen’s insignia badge, and eye patch as she menacingly wields her dagger. It’s obvious a lot of work went into this costume and it paid off.
