Cinderys is knowledgeable cosplayer from France who has been energetic within the scene for nearly a decade now. Through the years she’s cosplayed as a bunch of Blizzard characters, from World of Warcraft to Hearthstone, however her newest Diablo work is terrifyingly good.
Earlier than we go any additional: sure, I mentioned skilled cosplayer. As I’ve written about beforehand, there’s a sure degree of cosplay the place artists can interact in paid, sponsored work, and Cinderys has been doing this for some time. The Diablo cosplay right here, for instance, is the results of a collaboration between her, Blizzard France and peripheral firm Metal Sequence, which technically makes this promoting, but in addition provides Cinderys the time and sources to make one thing that appears this unimaginable.

There was stitching, after all, but in addition a great deal of 3D mannequin work (being sponsored can assist with entry to that stuff), 3D printing, prosthetics and make-up. By some means—with a little bit assist on the finish from fellow French cosplayer Xia—Cinderys not solely acquired all of it collectively, however constructed the entire thing from scratch in only a month:
Lastly, right here’s some footage from Diablo IV’s launch get together in France, which exhibits that the costume not solely appears unimaginable in pictures, however was totally (RELATIVE FOR COSPLAY) sensible to stroll round in for the night time.
If you wish to see extra cosplay work like this that’s simply nearly as good, Cinderys has a portfolio part on her private web site that has some absolute show-stealers, not simply from Blizzard video games however stuff like Monster Hunter as effectively. Her Savathûn from Future 2 is a very “holy shit” sort of picture gallery.
