Overwatch\u2019s heroes and villains all have interesting personalities and backstories. However, Widowmaker\u2019s is particularly tragic. Once upon a time, she was married to an Overwatch agent who led operations against Talon. But eventually, she was kidnapped, tormented, and reconditioned into a deadly assassin. Her philosophy is \u201cone shot, one kill,\u201d and she uses a sniper rifle, as well as mines and gas, to eliminate her enemies. Widowmaker is the number one choice for players who fancy long-ranged combat. However, she\u2019s popular among cosplays too, who are drawn towards her unique appearance and sinister beauty. Elle, better known as Sailor Virgo Cosplay, is one of those people. She has a whopping 45,000 followers on Instagram, and they can\u2019t get enough of her magnificent repertoire of cosplays. For one of her latest pieces, she confessed her love for Widowmaker\u2019s design and created her own cosplay from scratch using various materials, bodypaint, and contact lenses. It captured every detail, from the pink and purple outfit and skin to the massive sniper rifle, futuristic helmet, and neon-yellow eyes. \u201cIntroducing, the Overwatch assassin: Widowmaker,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI\u2019ve always loved her design. It\u2019s a little weird, I guess, to relate to an emotionless assassin\u2026 but she also used to be a ballet dancer \u2013 and like \u2013 same.\u201d \u201cSo, maybe my next career path will be an Assassin? Do I need to have a degree in that, or maybe just a portfolio? Really proud of how this turned out, even though it\u2019s not perfect! Hope ya like it!\u201d View this post on Instagram If you rummage through the comments, you\u2019ll see fans describe it as amazing, awesome, and incredible \u2013 and they\u2019re spot on. It\u2019s a fantastic piece from top to bottom, and she even managed to capture the overall assassin vibe in her expressions. All in all, Elle\u2019s cosplay has already pulled around 4,000 likes, which is insane. People know an extraordinary cosplay when they see one, and they\u2019ve stumbled upon an absolute gem with this piece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overwatch cosplayer goes viral as sharpshooter Widowmaker Instagram: @supersailorvirgo \/ BlizzardA talented Overwatch has gone viral on social media after transforming herself into Widowmaker with an incredible home-made outfit.
