Description
Character: Amano Terra from Final Fantasy VISeamstress/Model: Tess [cupcake-rufflebutt]
Photography/Editing: Lionel [lionboogy]
Location: Otakon 2010
Construction Notes:
As far as cosplay photographs go, this is one that had me prancing around my apartment, squealing like a small child. If you had seen where we were shooting (this dingy little corner of a hotel lobby with folks walking past giving us funny looks) you would never have known it would turn out like this. Such is the magic of Lionel! Had to do a bit of editing on my hairline (wig pushed back a bit) and arms (sun poisoning two days before the con, oh my) so please pardon the obvious photoshopping. If you'd like to read more about the construction process of this costume, please see my previous uploads!

Great picture. Reminds me of Terra in Dissidia. I think all the character models in that are Amano's.

Amano did over 20 sketches of Terra (she's his favourite character to draw, and it really shows - each design is completely unique) so while the Dissidia designs are heavily inspired by Amano, there is no one true design for the character. I purposely avoided looking at the Dissidia character model while I designed my costume because I didn't want to be swayed by it inadvertently. I'm often mistaken for "Dissidia Terra" at conventions, regardless. Maybe it's the blonde hair?

Awesome! I'm more for the green hair of the sprite, but the whole cosplay in itsself is so perfectly awesome. I mean, from the outfit, the pose, the lighting... Just marvelous!
Thank you for doing such an awesome job. Terra is one of my top fave characters of the FF universe, and I'm very pleased to see such a beautiful cosplay.

Thank you for the comment! I'm also more fond of the green hair, but this was my attempt at a costume solely based upon Yoshitaka Amano's artwork, which only depicts her as blonde. If you look elsewhere in my gallery you'll find my first Terra costume, a mish-mash of the sprite, CG, and Amano designs, which I incorporated the green hair into.

This is so gorgeous. I love the lighting and your pose! I like how the light is so bright, but you can still see the bold colors of your costume. Looks so awesome
