Character: Viktor
Media: "Arcane: League of Legends"
Completion Date: April 2025
Viktor's late season 1 design has a steampunk technological look to it that I created first by piecing together carefully-dyed fabric in different shades of gray and white, then layering grosgrain with a vintage metal braided trim. I wanted the latter to look like a steampunk-inspired circuit board. All of the Arcane costume designs are just on the other side of the line of "conventional" fashion: a strange fastening here, oddly specific buttons there, a seam that must exist but has been made to appear as though it doesn't. I used some vintage buttons and fastenings from my collection to help give it that classic-yet-futuristic finish, and I also hand-stitched the trim down the shirt sleeve shoulders and to the cuffs so there would be no interruption over the armscye seam. This cosplay was my first time using EVA foam, which layers on tip of PVC piping to form the base of Viktor's crutch-cane. The prop breaks into three pieces for easy travel.
