Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist
Riza (voiced in Japanese by Michiko Neya [2003] and Fumiko Orikasa [2009], and in English by Colleen Clinkenbeard [Funimation Dub] and Muriel Hofmann [Animax Dub]) is a major character in the Fullmetal Alchemist series.
She is Roy Mustang’s closest confidant and personal bodyguard, as well as the military’s best sharpshooter specialist, in addition to her rank as Lieutenant. She also has a pet dog named Black Hayate that she acquired after he was brought in by Fuery, being the only one suitable in the crew for taking care of him.
Riza has long, golden hair, usually worn up in the back with a flat brown clip, and her eyes are a deep chocolatey brown. She also wears silver stud earrings. The main outfit we see her in is a rank-specific Amestrian military uniform, all in that shade of medium blue, with silver detailing everywhere. She also wears black, shin-high boots, and is generally seen carrying some sort of firearm (she has a few, up to you which one would work best for your cosplay purposes, please keep in mind that cons generally have peace-bonding restrictions on prop guns!).
Olivier Mira Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Olivier (voiced in Japanese by Yōko Sōmi and in English by Stephanie Young) is an important character in the later half of the Fullmetal Alchemist series, only seen in the manga and Brotherhood.
Like her younger brother Alex, she is part of the army that the majority of the rest of the cast report under, and is a high ranking Major General, stationed at Fort Briggs of Amestris. While known for her steady and unrelenting leadership, leading to her having the nickname of ‘Ice Queen’, she also cares very deeply for her subordinates, giving them unexpectedly leeway while still maintaining a front of control.
Olivier has the same light golden hair as the rest of her family, worn long and down over one eye, with her other visible one a very pretty blue. Her lips are also very full and glossy. The uniform she wears is a slightly different version to the regular Amestris army one that we see, as she’s stationed in a much colder place. The base uniform is still the same, in those specific shade of blues and silvers, but she wears a thick black coat with a white fur trim over top, with white gloves, and shin-high black boots. Her weapon of choice is a sword that she keeps on her person.
Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist
Envy (voiced in Japanese by Mayumi Yamaguchi [2003] and Minami Takayama [2009], and in English by Wendy Powell) is one of the major antagonists in the Fullmetal Alchemist series.
He (dependent on form) is one of the sin-named Homunculi in the series, is usually seen as a trio with Lust and Gluttony, and takes a large amount of delight in tormenting Ed. Envy is a shape-shifter and is able to take on the appearance of any character, down to vocal mimicry, even if the person exists or not. Envy’s other two main (true) forms are akin to a large green dragon and a small green leech-like creature.
Depending on the series (03 vs Brotherhood) Envy has prominently green hair or green-tinted black hair (I went with a dark green to hit the middle), and purple eyes. His outfit consists of a cropped, sleeveless black top, black shorts with a skirt-like piece over top of it, black sleeveless gloves and matching black spats. Finish off the look with the Ouroboros tattoo on your leg, the homunculi markings are already on the back of the shirt piece so you won’t have to worry about that.
Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist (Conqueror of Shamballa)
Alphonse (voiced in Japanese by Rie Kugimiya and in English by Aaron Dismuke) is the deurotagonist of the Fullmetal Alchemist series, in tandem with his older brother, Ed.
This will be covering specifically how Al looks during the majority of the 2003 movie entry in the series, Conqueror of Shamballa, which acts as a conclusion to that iteration of the series. He is seen as a slightly younger than usual version of himself, in human form instead of the large, bulky armor form that we normally see him in.
During this movie, Al is very similar in appearance to how Ed is in the majority of the rest of the series, as he’s wearing his old jacket. His hair is like it is during the flashbacks, in the same dark golden hue, and his eyes are a gentle brown. The black underjacket he wears is a slightly different form than Ed’s, and he wears matching black pants, with brown boots. The final part of the outfit is a pair of white gloves that he wears with transmutation aids drawn onto them, so that he can use alchemy in the same way that Ed does.
Roy Mustang
Roy Mustang is a character from the anime Fullmetal Alchemist. He is a State Alchemist and colonel in the military, making him the superior officer of protagonist Edward Elric. A known war hero, Colonel Mustang is remarkable in his command capabilities with plans to become leader. This costume guide offers both a DIY and ready-made option. Use the gold rope on the shoulder and affix the pin on front. Then line the jacket and wrist cuffs with the silver ribbon trim. A no-sew option could be metallic silver fabric paint, and using painter’s tape to achieve the straight lines. If you’d rather save some effort, you can purchase the ready-made costume with the jacket, pants, and gloves.
Fletcher Tringham from Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)
Fletcher (voiced in Japanese by Minako Arakawa and in English by Avery Rice-Williams) is a side character in the original 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist series.
He is a character, along with his brother Russell, that was originally from the light novel for the series ‘The Land of Sand’, instead of the manga. In order to follow their father’s research, he and his brother impersonate Ed and Al, to gain access to resources they would otherwise not have. Fletcher is much more reluctant to do this.
Fletcher has short, fluffy blonde hair, and grey-blue eyes. He wears a green open top cap with earflaps, and matching loose overalls, held up with one strap, over top of a short sleeved white turtleneck shirt. The outfit is finished off with light brown shoes.
Russell Tringham from Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)
Russell (voiced in Japanese by Kosuke Okano and in English by Justin Cook) is a side character in the original 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist series.
He and his younger brother Fletcher are characters originally from the light novel in the series ‘The Land of Sand’. Russell is set on completing their father’s research and convinces his brother to impersonate Ed and Al, to give them an advantage in resource finding. His alchemic specialty is based in plants.
Russell has light golden hair, worn similarly to Ed’s, but shorter, and grey eyes. He wears a light grey button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled to his elbows, a pair of black slacks, black suspenders, and black shoes.
Alfons Heiderich from Fullmetal Alchemist The Movie: Conqueror of Shamballa
Alfons (voiced in Japanese by Shun Oguri and in English by Jason Liebrecht) is one of the secondary main characters in the follow-up movie to the 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist series, Conqueror of Shamballa.
He is a movie-only character, that Ed meets after being sent to Munich in 1921, and ends up boarding with. Alfons is a rocket scientist, and Alphonse Elric’s counterpart in that world.
Al has short, light blonde hair, and light blue eyes. He wears a plain white button-up shirt, black suspenders, and loose black slacks, with black loafers to finish the look.
Sheshka from Fullmetal Alchemist
Sheska (voiced in Japanese [2003] by Naomi Wakabayashi/[2009] by Chika Fujimura and in English by Gwendolyn Lau) is a secondary character in the anime/manga series Fullmetal Alchemist.
She used to work for the National Central Library, before being fired for reading instead of working. The Elric brothers then went to her for research help, where it was revealed that she has a photographic memory and was able to recreate any book she had read prior.
Sheska has short, messy mouse brown hair, with dark greyish black eyes that she wears half frame round grey glasses over. She wears an eggplant purple turtleneck sweater with blue jeans, with white socks.
Marta/Martel from Fullmetal Alchemist
Marta/Martel (voiced in Japanese [2003] by Rumi Kasahara/[2009] by Takako Honda and in English by Tiffany Grant) is a side character in the anime/manga series Fullmetal Alchemist.
She is part of the homunculus Greed’s group of chimera human hybrids, with hers being specifically a snake, which lets her be extremely flexible, past the point of contortion.
Marta has short, slicked back blonde hair and hazel eyes. She wears a black tank top with a knife holster attached to it, belted loose blue pants, and black boots with brown spats over them. Depending on the version, her tattoo is either green or purple.
