Jonah Vasquez from Dead by Daylight
Jonah Vasquez was born to a migrant farmer in Fresno, California who eventually earned enough to send Jonah to a good school. From there, Jonah discovered his gift for mathematics, which eventually led to a job code-breaking with the CIA. He worked hard, balancing his job with his personal morals. But his code-breaking eventually led him down a path that ended with him being taken into the realm of the Entity.
Being a mathematician, Jonah was less used to field work, and his wardrobe reflects that. His shirt can have the white painted on or be substituted for a purple and white hawaiian shirt to accent his laidback position.
Misty from Cyberpunk 2077
Carmina Mora from Dead by Daylight
Carmina Mora, aka The Artist, was a young artist and Chilean political revolutionary who grew up in a troubled home where it seemed like her only allies were the crows (which she did not realize were servants of the Entity of Dead by Daylight). She used her art to assuage the guilt of her younger brother’s death and to fight against political corruption and the disappearance of artists under their regime. Unfortunately, she and her friends were eventually kidnapped and tortured, Carmina herself getting her tongue and hands cut off. As she lay dying, the crows came to save her, only to swarm without mercy on Carmina’s tormentors and friends alike. Carmina ended up lost in her own guilt and now is crow-like in appearance, save for her inky hands, now the weapons of destruction for the Entity instead of tools to create and inspire.
A once beautiful and artistic woman, Carmina’s tight red dress is now torn and covered in feather-like leather pieces, which can be recreated by hand or by repurposing leather pauldrons. You can use liquid black liner to imitate the inky steaks on her face/body and latex gloves to imitate her inky arms.
Alph from Pikmin 3
Alph is the solid, sweet, dependable sort. The most loyal engineer any captain could ask for, he is also a great cosplay option for Nintendo fans.
A white shirt, a pair of white pants, and white shoes with blue soles make up the basis of Alph’s costume. Blue fabric paint adds the details to the top while complementing the blue gloves that Alph wears. Temporary blue hair dye gives you Alph’s hairstyle. To complete his look and get you an acrylic head bubble, check on YouTube for tutorials to affix a thick silver wire to the top of the bubble as well as tutorials to safely widen the neck holes if necessary. Then wrap the blue LED lights around the wire and glue the battery pack out of sight at the back of the bubble behind your head.
Jevil from Deltarune
Jevil is a portly imp and an antagonist in the game Deltarune. In chapter 1 of the game, Jevil serves at the first bonus boss. He is a Darkner and one of the holders of the Shadow Crystal. Jevil has grey skin and wears a black and purple jester’s costume with a lime green collar and matching shoes. With a purple tail and yellow teeth, he’s a truly peculiar-looking character.
Rookie from Far Cry 5
Rookie (also known as the Junior Deputy) is the main character of the video game Far Cry 5. A new recruit at the Hope County Sherriff’s department, Rookie is the first fully customizable character of the Far Cry series. The general costume for Rookie consists of their Deputy uniform, with rugged jeans and a green work shirt paired with a stury belt.
Larry Johnson from Sally Face
Larry Johnson is a character in the indie horror video game Sally Face. He is Sal’s best friend, and later on, he becomes his stepbrother. Larry is generally laid back, but he’s shown to be protective of his friends. His clothes remain the same as a teenager and as an adult, yet are tattered as a young ghost. Use the black eye pencil to line under your eyes and draw the mole on your left cheek.
Captain Charlie from Pikmin 3
Captain Charlie is one of the three playable characters in Pikmin 3, alongside Brittany and Alph. Captain Charlie has a brown mohawk and thin mustache, and wears a white suit with green details and matching gloves. Taking a little time with a pair of white coveralls and shoe covers can really help personalize the look. Use some green paint to create the green panel at the front of his suit, and even add green to the soles of the shoe covers. Don’t forget to add his yellow star badge. If you don’t want to grow a mustache like Captain Charlie’s, a brown eyebrow pencil can achieve a similar effect.
P2 from “Stop Drop Roll” in Just Dance 2022
