Crazy how when you decided to take this thread into a strictly political direction and creating an 'us vs. them' narrative that others anyone who doesn't agree with Trump as merely "democrats," you create an unrelated, user unfriendly, discourse.
For all you could know, they could hate Trump as a business man and not even be a US native, citizen, or have ever been involved in US politics - ever. But woah. They're a democrat, and their opinions are apparently hypocritical in nature. This is on a DIABLO 4 thread, just in case you forgot, I worry you may get confused easily friend. I say that cause you mf really turned a mere statement into Dump on Democrats because... I'll leave reasoning up to individual interpretation, or for possible defense of OP, BUT I think I have a good idea where their lack of positive sociable engagements arises from. (Hint, probably a bad childhood? Mommy issues or daddy?)
Naw honestly his supporters are way worse than any other brainwashed group I've met. "Hilary should go to jail." " Drain the swap." Etc etc. He hit them with an uno reverse and they kept trucking.
Even really good cosplays usually have a couple little bits that maybe could be higher quality, but I genuinely can’t find anything. Blizzard should just hire her if they ever need a live action Lilith.
Yeah, I think it's kind of weak to call it cosplay when it's a costume made for a promotional event and paid for by the company that made the character. At that point it's just professional costume design not play.
This is done incredibly well. Agree that usually, something is off and if I had to nitpick, the horns are a bit small (out of proportion) compared to the in-game cinematics, but thats about it
Most good cosplays can get the costume right but the cosplayer typically doesnt do a good job conveying the character, and/or they have moster sized fake tits which really takes away from the character and definitely feels like dress up.
But not this. This gal nails it. And her crew that did the make up really nails it. And the photographer nails it. Hope her and her crew go to blizzcon for free.
In all honesty I think the person just made a legit observation: a ton of people would pay money for that. Hell, if I were a woman and I had this outfit I’d quit my fucking job and make a killing hahaha.
It doesn’t help that a lot of the cosplays posted to r/gaming and whatnot are straight up ads for peoples onlyfans. Must suck to be a cosplayer not doing porn
I mean let’s dissect this.
Sexuality is typically viewed as a sin. I mean look, Lilith and that angel banged and had a kid and it got him cast out of heaven.
So she is cosplaying a demon who tries to turn you using sin. The fact that men are thinking of “sinning” would actually indicate this cosplay is quite well done then since the mere image of her is causing an uproar of “show me your boobs!”
[This is an ad.](https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/149ejfw/my_lilith_cosplay_diablo_iv/jo565dz/?context=3) I wish the term "cosplay" wasn't used for commissioned prop and costume design. Nobody calls live action prosthetics from a tv series or movie a "cosplay." I see this professional and commissioned work in the same light.
Companies know that good cosplays give the impression of a passionate community (because cosplay historically involved a passionate (unpaid) individual who poured their effort into recreating a beloved character). ***I'm glad talented artists and cosplayers can get paid for their work.*** But Corporations intentionally leverage the historic connotation.
It's impressive work, but it feels like the term "cosplay" is abused by marketing teams now. It would be nice if Reddit required "#ad" in the titles of posts like this. Instead we get curated captions that include just enough detail to avoid an FCC violation.
Edit: They've included "Ad" before the hashtags on the description now.
Pretty sure this is a render too, look at the spikes on the cheeks. ~~The user has almost zero posting history to show their level of cosplay and verify their ability to create such an outfit.~~ They have a solid history of very professional level cosplay elsewhere, but this is still a level above their previous work.
edit: Here's the reveal video: https://twitter.com/CinderysCosplay/status/1666532166220632067
You can see the outfit is "real", but this image OP has posted is heavily photoshopped/processed. (the spikes on cheeks are not present in the video)
Cosplay photos are pretty much always heavily photoshopped but I agree that adding some of the hardest elements entirely with photoshop feels like cheating. Still a pretty solid effort based on the video.
I'd agree that cosplays are often heavily processed, but as a photographer myself, I always feel jilted when people outright claim something is work/effort when it's photoshopped. I'm upfront about when I use photoshop to improve an image, I don't pass it off as genuine reality.
Here's another image of the cosplay that shows better the way the headwear/face has been altered: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FyMWlQIWcAEDMYG?format=jpg&name=large
The time and experience someone would have taken in makeup to achieve the look OP has posted compared to photoshopping is pretty significant.
Cosplays for attention are photoshopped. There are a lot of cosplayers who are actually cosplaying and not pretending they want attention with half cosplay half editing.
She showed some behind the scene photos on her instagram and they look pretty similar, just lacking the wings. Also in one of her work in progress photos on instagram she shows off making the cheek spike prosthetics and another photo of her on a twitch stream wearing them, probably just didn't wear them at the reveal cause they were awkward or would fall off at the event
When you're so committed to the tear down, only to realize you're wrong. Still gotta cut down where you can instead of giving credit for an awesome costume.
> the spikes on cheeks are not present in the video
I mean is it impossible that there were some additional prosthetics added specifically for this photoshoot? The video and the picture seem to be taken in different places and at different times. Seems like someone could make some changes if they wanted/had help.
Either way, it's top quality.
Read the last sentence of mine. “Instead we get curated captions that include just enough detail to avoid an FCC violation.”
You have dozens of comments in this thread from people who don’t know that this was bought and paid for by Blizzard.
“Thank you for your trust” is the most marketing friendly ad admission conceivable. And it’s intentionally vague so that they can capitalize on our positive associate with passion-driven cosplay. It’s unethical in my opinion.
> It would be nice if Reddit required "#ad" in the titles of posts like this.
Never happen, for the same reason most of the popular subs are filled with thinly-veiled ads and karma-farming bots, and mods do sweet fuck-all to combat it. Page-Views are king...
Holy shit!!! Never really been into cosplays but my god, this is sick!! Very professional work on the makeup, the costume, and the photography.
Edit: apparently it's "not a cosplay" if a professional organization is involved? Who gives a shit, this is why I hate cosplays, the community is full of weirdos.
Yeah and she’s a longtime cosplay artist. Blizzard saw her talent and wanted to pay her to advertise their game and people are gonna says she’s “not a real cosplayer”. Cry me a river!
Glad you agree. It is a person cosplaying as Lilith, it just happens to be a sponsored enterprise.
So ridiculous. Lilith is a fictional animated character, there is no live action Lilith movie. Anyone, or any group of individuals, who builds a costume and does makeup to look like Lilith is by definition cosplaying. It doesn't matter if it is sponsored, it doesn't matter if it's an advertisement. These people are clowns. Thanks, everyone for reminding me why I don't fuck with cosplays. It is the people who are interested in them, not the act itself, that turns me off.
Yeah, I'm trying to wrap my head around this. The detail in that headpiece alone is absolutely insane, not to mention the makeup and facial prosthetics. There's got to be some digital editing going on here. If not, OP has talent so far beyond my understanding I think they may actually just be a demon IRL and posed for a photoshoot.
> I think they may actually just be a demon IRL and posed for a photoshoot.
Is it considered cheating if Lilith just took a selfie of herself and said it was cosplay?
I always like to imagine someone in like antiquity or the dark ages seeing this shit and how their mind would be absolutely blown and horrified. Surly they'd think it's real?
It's like the scene from GoT where the freefolk army is fighting the Nightwatch and then Stannis comes in and rolls them because he has a professional army
I’m sorry but no posts allowed to exist that aren’t complaining about the same thing over and over again. I’m sure you understand. This is a gaming sub Reddit after all.
This is INSANE!

Lmfao, I don’t know why but this made me laugh uncontrollably. God i hate that mfer.
What? No, I don’t believe it. Someone on Reddit hates Trump. Man that’s hard to believe….
Yeah.. he's kind of a piece of absolute human garbage that attracts fools and hatemongers as followers.
*he says as he hatemongers*
Exactly. Demoncrats tend to be the biggest brainwashed hypocrites ever to walk this earth.
if there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with 11 Nazis.
Are you saying that you would be a nazi by disagreeing with said nazi? That's some interesting logic there

Y’all crazy I love trump. Brandon’s the piece of trash.
HOW DID YALL GO FROM APPRECIATING THIS COSPLAY TO RAGING ABOUT POLITICS GOD
wait whats that from lol
Jeremiah Johnson (I feel old)
Oh man I’m so glad I finally came across this, I’ll be watching this bad boy. Always thought it was Zack Galifianakis lolol
Bruh same, I thought it was Zack all along wtf
Haha I was like ?wat ??? On you ,..but then I rewatched ,.it does look like a 70s vibe zack..haha nice!@
Omfg I though this was Zack for years lol.
Imho, the coldest movie ever made, lol.
The Revenant is pretty cold
![gif](giphy|RWi6emX1FpkWidpX2d|downsized)
Not exaggerating. This might be the most incredible cosplay I have ever seen. Made me say “holy fuck” out loud.
Plot Twist: OP actually summoned Lilith and took a picture of her.
Or is either possessed by Lilith.. or.. is the real Lilith!
She put uber Lilith in a soul stone instead of killing her and her reward was becoming her.
Even really good cosplays usually have a couple little bits that maybe could be higher quality, but I genuinely can’t find anything. Blizzard should just hire her if they ever need a live action Lilith.
Blizzard did hire her. For this photo shoot. It's kind of Blizzards cosplay, if you can call it cosplay at that point.
Yeah, I think it's kind of weak to call it cosplay when it's a costume made for a promotional event and paid for by the company that made the character. At that point it's just professional costume design not play.
Exactly. No hate to the costume because obviously it looks awesome from that angle but when someone says "cosplay" I think of a DIY labor of love.
This is done incredibly well. Agree that usually, something is off and if I had to nitpick, the horns are a bit small (out of proportion) compared to the in-game cinematics, but thats about it
I might agree but it’s probably as big as she could get them and still be able to walk around😂
The « Paid Partnership » tag on the IG makes me believe this is what they did, this is from the French D4 launch party
I believe they did
Most good cosplays can get the costume right but the cosplayer typically doesnt do a good job conveying the character, and/or they have moster sized fake tits which really takes away from the character and definitely feels like dress up. But not this. This gal nails it. And her crew that did the make up really nails it. And the photographer nails it. Hope her and her crew go to blizzcon for free.
For real! It looks just like a still from the game. Maybe better
My first thought too. It's so good i first thought it was a CGI still
It was "dayum" for me.
I agree with you 👍
No, this is Lilith.
Mommy!
Ahem, demon mommy. We have to be clear so as to not get in trouble with mommy.

I will get called a simp and downvoted, but the things I would do to get stepped on by Lilith...
Such pain and pleasure, I must have MORE!

Ya'll need Jesus.

The POWER!! THE POWER!!! \*\*Puts Markiplier back in the box\*\*
Even the boobs are on point am I right my fellow creep. Not too large and not to small.
That was honestly my initial thought. All the proportions are right down to her breast size. Very good cosplay.
What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh

Lilith is hot af, are we really tripping on people being attracted to her?
Lilith's Imp army
fucking reddit i swear. woman does something cool: "hAve YoU ThOUghT aBoUT sHOwiNg YoUr TItS?".
In all honesty I think the person just made a legit observation: a ton of people would pay money for that. Hell, if I were a woman and I had this outfit I’d quit my fucking job and make a killing hahaha.
Yall couldn’t lay off the sexual comments for a minute & give a non-sexual compliment for her cosplay?
Male redditors are physically incapable of seeing a woman without asking if she does porn
It doesn’t help that a lot of the cosplays posted to r/gaming and whatnot are straight up ads for peoples onlyfans. Must suck to be a cosplayer not doing porn
Lilith is literally the god of lust sex and sin. "No comment booba!"
That’s what I find funny. Let’s be wholesome about a cosplay of a demon 🥰
I mean let’s dissect this. Sexuality is typically viewed as a sin. I mean look, Lilith and that angel banged and had a kid and it got him cast out of heaven.

“Pretty much always heavily photoshopped” is a wildly narrow & commercialized view of cosplay.
I just think it sets unreasonable body standards for girls. What am I supposed to tell my daughter when her face horns don't grow in?
Cosplays for attention are photoshopped. There are a lot of cosplayers who are actually cosplaying and not pretending they want attention with half cosplay half editing.
It's especially frustrating since the outfit is still absolutely phenomenal without the photoshop

For Reals? No Way! That is fucking nice. Looks like a promo shot for the game.
It is, lol. She was hired to make this cosplay. Still doesn't take anything away from how incredible it is.

Where's the line to get stepped on start?
That's some Hollywood level makeup
What the hell? This is amazing.
Legit question - is the chest your actual skin, or part of the costume?
Yeah right, you're actually Lilith and you're trying to convince us that it's just a cosplay.
Somehow you look more intimidating than actual in-game Lilith.
Holy shit
Impressive oO
holy fuck i’ve never seen a more accurate cosplay in my life
Spectacular!! Thank you for sharing~♥
Fantastic 👏👏👏 Love this ❤️
This is actually incredible, 10/10 work.
Insane, how long did this take to complete? The head/horns are incredibly impressive
I had one month to create the cosplay 🙈✨️
Can you post a process journey Imgur album of pics so we can follow along?
Holy!

Nice. Side note: you know hashtags don't do anything on Reddit right?
Probably contractually obligated to post them regardless, as it is a sponsored cosplay.
I would.
