Tekken 8 Cosplay: Melinoe (Hades 2) (Patreon)

It's been quite a while since the last Tekken 8 Cosplay feature, but we're here and I think this is pretty neat. So we've got my best effort at bringing Melinoe from Hades 2 into the King of Iron Fist Tournament. Now this babe is pretty special, since she's barefoot by default and is the main protagonist of her game. While I haven't played Hades 2 (or its precedent), I gather its a very loved rogue-like and action/RPG hybrid.

Melinoe is the daughter of Hades, Greek god of the underworld and when another crisis strikes her rather powerful family, Daddy's little girl is off to set things right. She takes over for Zagreus, her brother and hero of the first Hades. I actually own Hades 2, but haven't played it yet- maybe someday. For now, the only way I'll be playing with Mel is here in Tekken 8.

So I chose Reina, mainly for thematic purpose since she is a Daddy's Girl herself. I think physically she's also a good match with her hairstyle and sporty, slim build. Reina really IS Tekken's Dress-Up Darling, isn't she? I've used the Donut and Horns accessories for her signature head ornaments. The cyberphantom Outfit (Top and bottom) is colored to resemble Melinoe's colors. Finally, the Devil eyes give her Melinoe's striking gaze.

What do you think? Its the best I can do, but I like how it looks, and we'll see our kickass goddess in action from here on. Stay tuned for more Barefoot and KO content soon!
