# 3D printed cosplay, how to invent a new profession (video)

In his latest creations, he shows the entire production process that goes into the recreation of League of Legends Leona's Sword. The creative process described in the video shows once again what we have been observing: 3D printing is no longer a stand-alone process but a key component in a production process that involves several different modular parts, the addition of non-3D printed elements and an extensive finishing process.

## The 3D printed cosplay creator

The sheer amount of amazing in-game items created by Simone over the past couple of years is impressive. From in-game guns and swords to costumes and toys, he has single-handedly put into production items that videogame lovers (such as himself) would do cartwheels to own.

As do the videogame developers and publishers, that have often reposted Simone's creations on their websites or even used them as prizes for contests. If 3D printing has brought us a new way of making things, Simone has turned that into an entirely new profession.
