Viral Genshin Impact cosplay brings Mona’s magic to life

The talented cosplayer went viral on Twitter and Instagram after sharing a series of pictures of her incredible transformation into the beloved Genshin Impact character.

The artist teamed up with photographer ‘justmoolti’ who brought Mona’s Hydro spells to life using effects and editing. In one photo tweeted by Shirogane on November 6, she is surrounded by swirls of water that spiral around her.

The Russian model posed in a faithful re-creation of the 5-star character’s two-piece outfit which includes her sorcerer’s hat and purple bodysuit. From the life-size prop star pendant on her neck to the gold armor that wraps around her legs, this is easily the most detailed Genshin Impact cosplays we’ve seen.
