Fan Showcases Amazing Cosplay of Clair Obscur's Maelle

JumpyPackage8670 is not the only Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 fan to showcase a cosplay of Maelle recently. Last month, for example, another fan showed off a cosplay of the character, but this time with another outfit, creating one similar to Maelle’s “Baguette” outfit. This outfit is a popular pick for the character, and it has visuals inspired by classic French clothes.

Another noteworthy fan creation shared with the Clair Obscur community recently is a sculpted figure of Maelle, which was created by a skilled fan. This full-body sculpture showed Maelle wielding a sword and letting her red hair loose in the wind. Hopefully, fans will continue showing their love for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, sharing more images of their cosplays or objects that they created to showcase their admiration for Sandfall Interactive’s debut title.

Once a year, the Paintress wakes and paints upon her monolith. Paints her cursed number. And everyone of that age turns to smoke and fades away. Year by year, that number ticks down and more of us are erased. Tomorrow she’ll wake and paint “33.” And tomorrow we depart on our final mission - Destroy the Paintress, so she can never paint death again.

We are Expedition 33.
