In car accidents nobody says, "You hit my car with your car! Lara goes through a lot. The point is, no matter how different we are from the character on the screen, we react in the moment as if the things that happen to her are happening to us. Even separated by a third-person perspective, we are Lara.
Cosplayer Isa has done just that and then some in this fabulous Immortal Guardian attire from Rise of the Tomb Raider. In one picture you see Isa walking through the forest with a torch in front of her, this was completed by using flash paper for its fire effect and some of the fog came from a spray bottle plus some editing to create an incredible atmospheric shot that worked so well. The gun you see Isa holding in her Lara Croft cosplay is a cheap toy gun that she simply painted and the climbing ax is made from foam, and the holster is faux leather with foam pieces. You can watch a short clip of Isa modeling her stunning cosplay below, giving you a really good look at the amount of detail and dedication that has gone into this outfit. Make sure to check Isa out over on Twitter or Instagram to see all of her cosplaying adventures.
