Title: Stalker Survivor, Day 37 Submission: Survival Free-style Huge thanks to Hinterland for putting this together and for all their work on the game! I’ve always wanted to do a TLD cosplay especially as here in Minnesota, winter is 6 months of our lives! All the gear pictured excluding the backpack is my go-to winter hiking and hunting outfit. Even the “bedroll”(a wool blanket) comes along on extreme cold hikes as an extra layer and emergency tool. Even though it isn’t winter here yet, I tried editing them to give them that winter look with some non-edited as reference. “No one thinks of themselves as a survivor in their day to day life. It isn’t until we are thrust into the forge of adversity we discover that we are stronger than we thought. The desire to survive and thrive is what ignites the fire deep in our souls to push on, to climb, and to conquer. When the lights in the sky appeared, and all comforts of civilization disappeared I felt fear. For many days and nights I drowned in hopelessness, weakened by thirst and hunger, crippled by the cold, and hunted by hostile nature. But I survived, and now in spite of everything I call myself a survivor, forged and unbroken by this cruel, cold world.” Equipment used from in-game: Rabbitskin Hat, Cotton Scarf, Ski Gloves, Old Fashioned Parka, Thin Wool Sweater, T-shirt, Combat Pants, Wool Long Johns, Climbing Socks, Insulated Boots Misc Equipment: Hatchet, Hunting Knife, Marine Flare, Bandage, Water Bottle, Granola Bar, Peanut Butter Recycled Can, Cup of coffee, Bedroll, Climbing Rope Nikon camera files sometimes get compressed so I made an album too with the original resolutions: https://imgur.com/a/ubHTtvH Hope you all enjoy!
