In the game, the FromSoftware heroine has an extra pair of hands that appear from her waist. Using cloth, the artist stitched together a replication of the hands clasped together to create the illusion of her having four limbs. Her detailed gloves were created by ‘wlccosplay‘.

As if that wasn’t impressive enough, Nigri also uploaded a video taken by Martin Wong showing her mind-blowing Elden Ring cosplay in action.
