Autumn is upon us, and members of the Assassin's Creed Community have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to craft unique and interesting fan creations.
​
Here are our top 6 projects you should look out for this Autumn.
6. Galina Cosplay - Assassin's Creed Cosplay Project
​
Check out this brand new Assassin's Creed cosplay project, created by Galina Cosplay for UniCon and Game Expo, which takes place in Belarus!
The costume seems to take inspiration from tribal cultures, featuring elements such as feathers, beads and bone charms.
It's clear that this Assassin is a badass warrior who you really don't want tracking you down! I can see this member of the brotherhood taming wild animals and using a mix of stealth and brutality to eliminate enemies.

You can follow Galina's progress here on Instagram

5. Lorenzo de Sanctus - Assassin's Creed Japan Fanart
​
Feudal Japan is a location many Assassin's Creed fans dream of visiting one day in a game, with the potential for ninjas, Samurai sword fights and epic rooftop battles. With the release of Ghost of Tsushima, AC fans can get a glimpse at what the setting could offer.
​
21 year old freelance concept artist Lorenzo de Sanctus has recntly been releasing his fanart on ArtStation.
​
"Assassin's Creed is the game that i always loved, the idea, the style and the story! The idea to live the life of your ancestor is amazing. So I started to think about a game set in the Feudal japan, that could be great for me!"

4. Connor Ellis - Orchestral Covers
​
With the success of the Assassin's Creed Symphony, the AC Community is ready for more orchestral pieces to inspire its members.
21 year old Connor Ellis has recently begun uploading orchestral covers of Assassin's Creed music, and the timing could not be better.
​
If, like us, you're eagerly counting down the days until the Assassin's Creed Symphony in London, then this is a project you won't want to miss!
​
Connor also revealed on Twitter that he might try and do an orchestral cover for each game, and time the video releases to sync up with the Assassin's Creed Marathon!
​
Here is his Assassin's Creed III cover!
