Finally, a Zelda: Breath of the Wild Lynel cosplay

Fantastic

I see Zelda related cosplay at nearly every event I attend, but this is something else.

Cosplayer TheCrashProject managed to make a full-on Lynel suit for NYCC 2017, a creation that ended up taking them “three long weeks” to prepare. According to his diary-esque gallery, the rear half of the suit was the most difficult party, and consists of “PVC, chicken-wire, and foam.” According to TheCrashProject, “the rest is all upholstery foam.” And love, they forgot to say a lot of love.

Costumes like this, and the many giant Reinhardts I saw at BlizzCon last year (and will see again in 2017) are among my favorites. While there are some incredible humanoid efforts for sure, there’s nothing like having a giant robot or beast walk up to you at a con.
