Viral's name comes directly from the word "viral", tying in with the Beastmen's genetics theme, but there are other theories about his name's origin. One is the fact that it can also be an anagram for "rival", referring to his constant rivalry with Kamina and Simon. (from Wiki)


:iconviralishappyplz: Mig (no DA account) as Viral
:camera: :iconbehindinfinity: photography by me

Background info:
As with the rest of the pictures from this set, the location for this was an active volcano. Kamina would be proud. It was a pretty exciting change from the usual spots we have photoshoots in. The rough terrain was a little dangerous, but that added to the fun. I got so absorbed in taking photos of Viral that I nearly fell off the ridge I was perched on, since my vision was warped by the perspective of the wide-angle lens. :lol: Lesson learned.

I would very much like to know how you guys managed with those hands, and what they're made of. Unless you bought them separately.

Otherwise, interesting looking cosplay and environment : D Viral :heart:

They're actually monster hands that Mig found around Halloween, then he just painted them the right color. Lucky find! They really worked for Viral.

Thank you! :D

Loving the picture. I wish I could get pics of my Viral cosplay by a volcano @,@
Not a big fan of the hands though. They just seem a bit bulky. But they're the perfect color still :3
