My collection of homemade Final Fantasy patterns is so large, it made the main page lag. Honestly expected of Final Fantasy cosplays as they are pretty detailed.
Check out my FAQ page for usage, pattern information, and more! Patterns FAQ.

Crystal Exarch
Many of these designs are layered with HTV, so pieces include both the brown background color and the gold top layer. I’ve noted layering where I can. You can also look at my gallery page for Crystal Exarch to see the final result.
Arm bracer
To be honest, I cannot recall which piece goes where. However, I’ve noted what little info I’ve written down of each piece. Hopefully printing them out and comparing them to the art or a screenshot of his arm can help put things in the right place.
All of these pieces were cut from faux leather. They are made to overlap and are made for a wider arm and wrist.

Back details
Details on the back of the black robe underneath the hood and read drape. The pattern is mirrored over the center back. To make it easier, I’ve already mirrored the pieces.

Hip accents
Here are the hip accents. For whatever reason, I have multiple designs for the main curved piece that hangs down, and I’m not sure which one I used. I also left the inner lines in the base pieces, which don’t need to be cut out. Perhaps these will be useful for someone also making these. The base was made using thermoplastic with thin foam for the details.

Hood details
All these pieces are layered HTV. Match the brown and gold numbers to get the pair. Brown is applied first then gold on top.

Sandals
Pieces used to make the sandals. These were cut out of faux leather and glued to a pair of flat sandals, size 8 Wide US. I do have them, but I don’t wear them enough. Faux leather doesn’t like to stay standing up on my leg.

Skirt border
This border is repeated across the black pleated skirt. Make sure to remove the inner sections when cutting HTV.
Staff
I created the staff with multiple layers of foam in varying thicknesses and mounted it on a PVC pipe. I’ve numbered the layers with any notes I left for myself which can hopefully help piece it together again.

White drape border details
This is the border shown on the folded white drape along the skirt. I layered gold HTV over brown to make the designs. Each section is a part of a massive chain of patterns, fit specifically for a long and wide drape with a corner in the middle. Match the numbers to find the matching sections.

Emet-Selch
I made this cosplay for a friend. Most of these pieces used various types of layered foam, plastic, and even brick HTV to look embossed. Here are all the pattern pieces I used.
Back design
The design on the back of the jacket just underneath the collar. Pattern pieces include the composite design showing how they’re put together.

Belt design
Belt details including a large belt buckle and squares that probably are supposed to be belt loops. I’m not sure, so I made them into layered square accents. These were all cut out of foam.

Collar
Layers for the collar clasp that kind of looks like hard candy. These are cut out of layers of foam, the base in thick foam and the bottom layer out of thin foam.
Epaulets
Here are the epaulet designs. The base layer was cut out of thermoplastic with thin foam details.
Embossed lapel designs
To create the designs, I cut these out of brick HTV then pressed them hard into the back to make the lapels look embossed. This works great with faux leather and thin vinyl. You will need to mirror the design for the opposite lapel.

Front coat designs
These are various designs used along the front of the coat

Medals
There are a ton of medals on the front of the jacket. The center has unique designs with a bunch of squares along the side and bottom. I made them all out of thick foam for the back with thin foam for the details, connecting them with jewelry rings.

Shoulder accent
The accent that goes above the shoulder pauldron. I made these using thermoplastic for the base and thin foam for the accents
Wrist design
The designs that go around the wrist of the coat sleeves. They could be the top of gloves or the bottom cuffs of the coat. I don’t know. You can put them where you’d like! I made the base out of thick foam with the details in thin foam.
Dulia Chai
The designs for her dress underneath the fluffy gray coat. I cut mine out of shiny HTV. Instead of making a solid dress, I made a shirt with a skirt. These could be made for either a dress or a shirt. They’re fitted to my size and dress shape, but they might work for you too!
