Hey guys,

I've picked out a few suits online that are a close enough shade of blue to be good Phoenix suits but I'm really torn on which one I should go with. Here are some pictures:

Spoiler: Suit #1

Spoiler: Suit #2

I included a reference picture of Phoenix's in game sprite, as well as a pretty detailed official artwork, and I find that that first suit is a closer shade of blue than the second suit. The only glaring issue is that it has 4 buttons, as opposed to Phoenix's 3 buttons, and I have no idea how to remove a button and hide the buttonhole without it looking ghetto. Is there a way to do that?

My other option is the second suit, which is a bit close in shade to a different official artwork I've seen, but I'm trying to be as true to the game as possible. Perhaps I'm being too much of a perfectionist?

I'd appreciate any and all advice! Thanks very much. :)

I think the second suit is better, especially because I have a suit the same shade which I'm going to wear as Phoenix.

Thanks for the advice! Are you positive that the second suit I posted is the same shade as yours? To me, yours looks lighter in shade and closer to that of Phoenix's in-game sprite, while the suit I posted is kind of a deeper, darker color. Maybe its just a difference in lighting?

I think I'll eventually have one custom made, when I can afford it. For now, one of these will have to do! XD

Lol. I am 99% sure that that second suit is the exact same one I got for my cosplay. :haha:
I wore it once so far (only to a friends graduation party but I already love it.) :butzthumbs:
