this last anime milwaukee (amke2026) i got to cosplay my baby bitch boy monocco on saturday. there was a clai obscur lore panel that i wanted to wear him to, and despite the fact that the panel lowkey sucked, it was still super fun to meet other fans of the game. we all took a lot of pictures together

i chose to do his lumiere outfit simply for the fact that his regular outfit scares the shit out of me. eventually i'd love to figure out a way to make all of... that, but a suit was definitely easier to start off with. his mask took forever to figure out how to make; it's made up of foam, cardboard, and fabric from a thrifted pillow. that pillow was a SCORE, it's like his exact hair colour. the mask has a small panel of mesh around where the eyes are, so i can see (and the visability isn't half bad!).
