Why I chose to make this costume:
Resident Evil 4 is my favorite game in the franchise and I really enjoyed the Remake as well! It was kinda a no-brainer for me to make Ada's costume from this game as well.
How I made this costume:
This Ada design is fairly simple! I bought a sweater dress and shortened it to mini length, and made black thigh highs from my 4-way stretch pleather.
The gun holster is what I spent most time on. It is made of real leather, a hunk of cow hide, which I properly cut, assembled with snaps and buckles, dyed black and finished. I did this within the 24 hours before flying to Asia, once again proving that cosplayers are the most productive on a hard deadline lol.
I used my OG Ada Wong thigh holster for this costume! It only seemed fitting!
Thoughts on this costume:
We shot Ada in a cosplay studio in Tokyo that used to be an Industrial warehouse! I was so happy to be able to use this incredible setting! The arsenal wall! The motorcycle! That set treatment!
The Magfest photos were taken by FX Dandy and Kameraninja, two of my favorite photographers!
