"The night elves (or kaldorei, which means "Children of the Stars" in their native tongue of Darnassian) are among the oldest known races in Azeroth, a reclusive and mystical race born during the waking of the world.

 

This is my second version of this costume, added some details, leaves to the hair, a necklace, more feathers, etc. The first version looks kinda boring now, compared to the new photos.

I think we could finally create the athmosphere and the "feeling" I imagined for this character

Because many people asked me about my purple skin color, I just tought it would be easier to explain it here. It's not photoshop, it's bodypaint (like my Tiger cosplay in my gallery). I am using Kryolan creme type bodypaint, because it's cheaper than liquid ones (and I don't have an airbrush either). Getting ready takes 2-3 hours, depending on the character, and the amount of skin I want to color (usually 2 hours for the nightelf, 3 hours for the tiger)."
