League has over 150 champions, and each has multiple skins that players can choose from. This gives cosplayers a ton of options at their fingertips when it comes to creating their next design. Sometimes, Riot\u2019s designs can get pretty wild. Whether in scope or theme, there\u2019s plenty that would test a cosplayer\u2019s talents in trying to piece a suit together. That\u2019s why a ton of people are liking user okapishomapi\u2019s cosplay, known as \u2018makerfishmeal\u2019 on Instagram, for Leona. Not only did she completely pull off the hard design, she made one of the goofiest (and highly-praised) skins look absolutely clean in real life. View this post on Instagram Now, League fans will know that the Leona skin has a big, plump sausage at the end of the solar pitmaster\u2019s pitchfork. Instead of the normal-sized one in the character\u2019s splash art, okapishomapi elected to recreate the monster version that\u2019s seen in her in-game model. Using a PVC pipe and a whole lot of foam, okapishomapi was a mixed bundle of excitement and frustration while building Leona\u2019s tricky accessories. Documenting her cosplay-making process, the creator said that the hardest part was keeping the sausage fixed to her five-foot fork since it had to look good, be lightweight, and hold its shape while being propped up. And that doesn\u2019t even account for the technical challenge that it took to make a sizzling LED grill shield that the champion hoists on her other arm. As daunting as the weapon-making process must have been, the cosplayer gave just as much attention to detail to the lean, mean, brisket queen\u2019s full attire to faithfully recreate the champ. Okapishomapi\u2019s cosplay has been massively loved by the League reddit community, amassing over 11k upvotes and dozens more awards. There\u2019s been Leona cosplays in the past that have also impressed, but this design mixes a great level of energy and craft to make something special.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>League of Legends cosplayer cooks up fantastic Barbecue Leona Munchkin Photos \/ Riot GamesA League of Legends cosplayer served up an incredible rendition of Barbeque Leona which included massive props to properly pull off old-school skin.
