Description This is my cosplay of Ex-mode Ultimecia from Dissidia: Final Fantasy. This is basically Ultimecia's ultimate summon "Greiver" junctioned to her (making an Ultimecia-Greiver Hybrid monster thing, lol). I have always loved Ultimecia and the Greiver summon ever since I saw them in Final Fantasy 8 ages ago! I cosplayed as Ultimecia from Final Fantasy 8 (That can be see here: [link] ) in 2006, and really had a lot of fun with it. When I saw a new incredible and more challenging design for this character, I was so excited to try it!

This costume was so difficult, but I am very proud of it. I chose to make this not only for my love of the characters Ultimecia and Greiver , but also to learn and use new techniques. I feel that this costume really showcases the skills and abilities I have learned and improved upon throughout the years I have been cosplaying. A costume of this difficulty would not have been possible for me even just a year ago. I have built upon what I know which each challenging thing that I make, and it's really rewarding to see the changes!

I will try to get more specific construction notes up on my website at pixiekitty.net soon! So check back there, and I should have some stuff up by the end of the week or so.

Reference for this costume can be seen here: [link]

Costume debuted at Katsucon 2010. Everything made by me, and photo taken by Ljinto.

That costume is badass! Had to cost you a pretty penny to make.

It took more of my time than money. It did cost a lot more than other costumes i've made though!
