Description
I owe it all to my favorite movie, "Kubo and the Two Strings".
If it weren't for this movie, it would've never crossed my mind to look into a character named "Hanzo".
Here, we've got all three members of Kubo's family, cosplaying as characters from Overwatch.
Commentary: I chose Sariatu to cosplay as Pharah because they share the same kind of bangs. They're also serious about their work.
Kubo is Zenyatta because, with help from his shamisen magic and his origami birds, he too can hover like the omnic monk.
And as for the Mighty Hanzo, well, you can guess he plays a certain older Shimada brother for their shared name and shared talent with archery.

Pharah is one of the strongest willed women in the Overwatch cast, and no one would mess with her lest they get the "rain from above". Zenyatta is my favorite of the fighters because of his inspirations from Buddhism and Xiaolin monks and his role in the story as Genji's teacher and a mediator for Omnic/Human relations; being a product of two worlds, and still navigating nebulous and dangerous relations between them, Zenyatta is a great costume for Kubo.
And of course, if you don't make Hanzo into the Japanese archer inspired by the same historical figure, it's a crime against cultural inspiration I say.

Zenyatta is one of my favorite Overwatch characters as well. ^^
That's a great way to put it ("being a product of two worlds"),
given he's the son of a mortal samurai and an immortal woman
Glad I could fashion our favorite Beetle Clan samurai into the elder Shimada brother

Kubo looks good as a monk and it was smart to have Sariatu cosplay Pharah since they both have a distinctive feature near their eye. Maybe Hanzo cosplaying Hanzo Shimada was too good, because when I looked at him I thought, "Why is Hanzo Shimada taking Hanzo's place?"

Thank you!
Sometimes, when I glance my drawing from the corner of my eye, Hanzo Mikami resembles too much like Hanzo Shimada!
(One distinctive feature that sets them apart are the eyebrows)
And thank you so much for your comment, it really made my day

You're welcome!
(And Hanzo Mikami's single white stripe.)
I'm very glad I could help

Which ones are left?

Which hero's legendary skin would that be?

That's one reaction between the Shimada and Hamada brothers I'd love to see
(Kind of has a "How to train your Dragon" vibe, wouldn't you say?)

You ever saw the movie "Titans A.E."?
Because when I think of Hiro and Baymax's first flight,
it makes me think of this song:

I know and Jimmy Kimmel's nemesis.

Jimmy Kimmel sure has a lot of nemesis if you count Val Kilmer

I thought there was only one! (Matt Damon)

Sorry, I mixed up which guy snuck him onto the Jimmy Kimmel show
Anyway, I hope you like "Titan A.E.",
it's a great sci-fi animated movie
(It even stars the guy who plays Sid the Sloth)

That would be Ben Affleck, who also played Batman.
Thanks for the recommendation.
(I saw that on IMDB

All the same, I'm glad we could all join in this Overwatch Event
By the way, given that he's technically a father,
I had the idea of the Raiden (as a mortal)
reuniting with all 3 of his daughters as mortal little girls
I hope you're recent Overwatching got you the skin you wanted

That would be cute!
The day's not over, there's still time to get it. (I haven't got the skin I wanted yet.)

It looks so nostalgic,
especially how DVA herself is dressed.

It does look and sound nostalgic! That's why I'm glad I have it.

I'm so happy you earned it,
she looks like she could've been the Overwatch of 1950s
Almost like an action-packed episode of "The Twilight Zone"

So it was like moving the payload
My dad sure appreciated the help :aaw:

I love this so much! They each look so good in their cosplays!

Thank you so much!
Which of their cosplays do you adore the most?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I love the way all three of them look, so it's near impossible to choose, however, if I did have to play favorites, I'd have to say Hanzo as well... Hanzo!

I also find Kubo adorable thanks to his omnic monk outfit
