About this Costume
Construction Details:
The wig took 15 packs of loose hair from ikickshins. I dyed it all with baby pink sharpies and I steamed it straight. On the inside I rolled up some quilt batting and dyed that too (it didn't take the sharpie dye well though). I carefully wrapped the hair around the batting and tried to hide it as much as possible. The ends were stubbed off as small as possible and put inside the base wig. The littler pigtails were done similarly.

The weapon is a pvc pipe sandwiched between 2 layers of insulation foam on the ends. The foam was carved and sanded (there was a LOT of sanding)and then sealed with white glue and gesso. Then I added a thin coat of resin over everything and sanded it lightly before painting it.

The rest is pretty straight forward I think.
Personal Thoughts:
This costume was something I wanted to do very badly! Some parts could be a lot better, but I was a little short on time near the end unfortunately. The wig was very uncomfortable, so I only wore this for a short time.
