[Amiya cosplay] Arknights' Rhodes Island Commander, CP32 Hangzhou Live

The photos from CP32 Hangzhou are finally here! This time I'm meeting everyone as Amiya from Rhodes Island. I have to say, this bunny commander outfit is absolutely packed with details. The combination of the white ruffled shirt and black pleated skirt, paired with the military-style cloak on the outside, preserves the agility of a young girl while adding the crisp sharpness of a commander. The bunny ears and hair accessories on my head were adjusted by hand bit by bit, and for these iconic ice-blue colored contacts, I specially picked the closest shade to recreate the character's temperament.

The venue for this shoot was the exhibition hall's outdoor corridor. The texture under natural light is exceptionally good; the reflections on the metal shoulder armor and the paint on the weapon are very clear, and the photographer's snapshot angles are absolutely amazing. That huge black tactical weapon is actually quite heavy to hold, but to present a better combat stance, I repeatedly tried every movement from standing with the weapon to raising it sideways. My favorite is the close-up shot; the gaze and focus feel like they perfectly express Amiya's firm yet gentle aura.

In fact, every time I do an anime cosplay with such high accuracy, it feels like a challenge to myself. From trimming the wig to the stitching of the costume, and then to fixing the accessories, many details that might not be obvious in a studio shoot are magnified under outdoor natural light. At CP32 this time, I met many friends who also love Arknights. Everyone was taking photos and exchanging freebies on site, and the atmosphere was wonderful. Although my legs were a bit sore after standing all day, seeing myself holding the weapon confidently in the final photos made all the hard work feel worth it. While sorting through the photos, I found this set more and more appealing the more I looked at it, so I uploaded this curated collection.
