![]() As DC's Infinite Frontier era brings all versions of continuity back into canon somewhere in the multiverse, there's a slim chance fans may get to meet Superman's daughter Lara Lane-Kent again - a chance that increases while awesome fan art keeps her alive. ![]() And yet Melissa Croft's cosplay brings her to life in a new way, showing the ability of fan art to explore characters in new contexts - sometimes with the effect of getting major companies to reconsider their worth. Lara is about as obscure as a DC superhero can get, appearing incredibly briefly and as a theoretical person. While widely celebrated games, Injustice: Gods Among Us set up some core plot events that leaned into the excessive and cliche, but "For the Man Who's Lost Everything" managed to retroactively give Lara her own voice and potential, framing the deaths of Lois Lane and her unborn child as tragedies unto themselves, rather than a pure "women in refrigerators" moment for Superman (though Injustice remains very much an exploration of Clark Kent gone wrong, and Bruce Wayne's reaction.) First, making Lara Lane-Kent yet another person - like Lois Lane, Lana Lang, and Lex Luthor - whose double-L name marks them as pivotal to Superman's life, and second confirming that the 'evil Superman' of this story was already prone to authoritarian instincts before Joker's attack, deepening him into a character who isn't merely the mainstream Clark Kent gone bad. I hope this detailed explanation is helpful in your recreation of Lara Croft from Tomb Raider! Try not be as disappointed as I was when anyone under 20 asks you who you are and then has never heard of Lara Croft or Tomb Raider.Taylor's reflection on the perfect world Injustice could have been did some subtle things with the world's lore. I found the dirt look on the outer forehead, cheekbones, and jawline to be even flattering ?!

Top right of forehead/ above left eyebrow, small mark on nose, small mark bottom chip right side, left side of chest and arm by tourniquet). I did my normal makeup routine and just added streaks of red lip liner (ruby woo from Mac) here and there and smudged over it gently with brown eyeshadow (Cyprus umber from soft glam palette by Anastasia Beverly hips). But I like myself in two French braids better so I did that. ![]() Lara Croft usually wears one friend braid with two small pieces of hair hanging out in the front. I got these the day before in a Halloween Store.įrench braids. I added red lip liner and brown eye shadow to the tourniquet to make it appear dirty & bloody. You also don’t want a bright white tank top or T-shirt. I didn’t care about the tank top so I cut the bottom off and tied it around my arm. I just found an old tank top that was off white/tan and thin material not thick cotton. The arm tourniquet was a last minute edition. Guns were a little small but held about 2 shots of Tequila ? (spraying tequila in peoples mouths all night was a must for the costume!) ![]() (Mine were old from Charlotte Rousse but ang work!) Found these on amazon (similar):įor the water guns I spray painted them Matte Black- here’s a quick link for matte black spray paint even though any will work! The costume was such a hit! It was a lot of work to find pieces for the costume that were so perfect- I thought it would be helpful to anyone in the future who wishes to be Lara Croft if I made a blog post detailing quick links to everything I used ! So I decided to recreate myself by finding different pieces online! Reviews said that material was cheap, costume straps were flimsy & easily broke- shorts didn’t cover and created a muffin top look. When I decided to be Lara Croft – I was disappointed by the bad reviews on the Sexy Tomb Raider costume from online Halloween stores. Here is a great Lara Croft and Indiana Jones costume idea from. I created my Lara Croft costume – mostly entirely from things I found on Amazon. Grab all the leather you can find, and dont forget Laras trademark tank top or Indys hat. I wanted to provide all of the details to my best costume yet!
