One of the many fans to post their cosplay of Tifa Lockhart on theFinal FantasysubReddit, user miss_mononoke set herself apart from the rest of the crowd by sharing a photo that recreated the character’s main marketing material even before the game was released. In a half body photo, the cosplayer seemed to have Tifa’s whole outfit down, from the suspenders, the double-layered sports top, and her well-known arm guards. Given thatFinal Fantasy 7weaponsare very hard to recreate due to them being quite detailed and unrealistic, the attention to specifics on miss_mononoke’s bracers are a great show of craftsmanship.
Comments on the Reddit thread were mostly positive, stating that miss_mononoke’s rendition of the character was very impressive. One even thought the photo was a rendered image from the game. However, one commenter did not seem pleased thatanother Tifa Lockhart cosplayhas made its way into the forum again. However, with just how popular Tifa is, cosplays of the character are bound to keep being crafted and shared online.
