Asmodian Gladiator – Aion

The Asmodian Gladiator was my very first full armor costume I’ve ever created! I made this costume back in 2010, using mostly Wonderflex. It’s a thermoplastic material, which can be easily shaped with heat and comes in thin plastic sheets. I only heard about it on the internet and was super excited to get my hands on. And it seamed to be perfect for my Asmodian Gladiator cosplay from Aion! I actually discovered the game during a random google search and instantly fell in love with it’s character and armor design and those gorgeous, Korean artworks.

The costume itself was quite a challenge! I never worked with Wonderflex previously and were not able to find any tutorials. In addition, I never made any armor before! I felt quite lost during the construction process and failed plenty of times. There were surely plenty of moments when I wanted to give up! However, I fought through it and it turned out to be one of my most educational projects. I’ve learned a lot about pattern making, armor making and priming and painting. I also styled a wig the very first time! Sometimes the hardest things in life, are the things most worth doing!

I think the Asmodian Gladiator was also the costume plenty of people discovered me with on the internet. At least, I got a lot of questions regarding to the costume and was inspired to do my very first cosplay tutorial on YouTube!
