You guys are so great. :P I will never get any compliments from these costumes directly from other people because they no longer belong to me once I send them out. Since there isn't a brag board around here I thought this is the best place to display my newly finished commission work to claim some ...

wow thats really cool.

Nice of you to show how you did it.

I can't see the pic. It gives me an error page.

Juci, the bangs are accurate to Dejiko's style >.> The short ones really aren't the bangs either as much as it's just the front part of the wig. @.o But I'm not angry or anything, I'm just going to say this though...with a wig commissioner, all you have are personal comments flying about. The wigs ...

Hi it's me again. ^^ *waves shyly * Anyway, it seems Yuki has been put to a screeching hatl due to a recent awful con experience. I won't get into details ( if I don't I'll be talking for an hour at minimum ) let's just say I have been....'inspired' to cosplay not as Shuichi from Gravitation. And l...

Juci

Yes, especially because I never use just one and in the case of one wig, I used Six. You should get some Reno pictures since according to you, it turned out so well. ........I'm sorry you don't approve of my styling of the Dejiko wig? *walks off* *nods* One is just isn't enough. So far its turning ...

Bob wigs, depending on where you get them, are the same or even less than the longer wigs. That's really what you pay for with: thickness and length. But keep in mind that I use Amphigory stuff and all my extensions come from Dr.Locks, which is nice but its shipping prices just recently went up. No...

I'm guessing you've already seen this pic but here, http://c-uncut.com/media/ff8-squall.jpg There really isn't any picture online that shows the back of his head. You would really have to go to the game itself and either pause it or screencap it. I had to pause it when I was styling my Hatori wig. ...

Ok need seriously a second opinion or second set of brains. :D Ok .. I'm just guessing here so don't kill me. Squalls' hair from Final Fantasy 8 is short at the back and around near the ears, and from there is gets longer as you get to the top and front of the head. I know for sure that the front is...

Juci

Hey thanks, everybody... I figured something out for myself in the meantime -- I used interlocking dog collars, and sewed the gun pouch myself...*heh* You'll probably have to see it, but it's kind of close to the one in the cosplay picture -- I think it looks pretty good, and when pictures are take...

To Pokegirl I think he is asking for a Naruto costume help. To Ryu Hayabusa http://agsma.acparadise.com/AX04/naruto.jpg You can make his whole costume out of cotton if you like. Anything that is soft cloth that isn't see through. Zippers, fur and a head band. http://search.ebay.com/Naruto-head-band_...

Oh good, thats good to hear. There sould be gloves that are padded already.

wow your some friend letting your buddy strave like that. Heehee. Which part specifically is your friend stuck on, if it's the shirt. That should be easy. It's more like a shirt wrap around the neck and button down at the bottom of the front part of the blouse with a back part attached to the bottom...

I think this is what mindtailor was talking about. Looks very simple, but I bet it was hard to do on a sewing machine.

Juci

the one that shows the whole chest oh ok. Yeah Like I said before that one looks like a Matrix costume cut up then taken some fabric to sew on the different colors of the coat, like the arms and the red thing on the sholders. If your doing the whole thing by hand just get some long coat pattern , f...

Juci

Well, I think you can use other substitutes but just stay away from anything hot, ya know? Yes of course, heat melts the wig. I have some glue that is used for gluing clothes together (it doesn't wask off once it's dry) and it's a really strong powerful glue that is less messier than caulk. I have ...

Wow it's nice of you to make a step by step page of your costume. for others to know how to make one for themselves. Thats cool. :D There are a hand full of people who acturally do that.

I' m not doing the red coat,though,I'm doing the other chrno coat thingy majig. You mean the white and black one with a hole to display the chest? or the long stripped coat? The long stripped coat looks like a Matrix coat (ebay has some for $20 or lower, but be careful and read, sometimes they tric...

Juci

I agree with Hemuloki-sama... The dress does look like and is the hardest part of the costume. The rest should be as easy as putting tv dinner in the microwave. Maybe you need is a reference pic. http://astriaweb.free.fr/cos/japan03/details/fin_modele.jpg Here is a good pic. ^_^~ Hope it helps. The ...

After watching the tutorials...

Is caulk the only type of glue I could use for gluing hair extensions together when making a weft or are there other types of glue available that can do the same?

Juci

Hemuloki-sama wrote:*sighs*

http://www.katiebair.com Has a step by step tutorial on how to make extensions while my Lj has a step by step tutorial in it that explains how to sew them in.

Is that better?

Thank you so much.

:( I'm not asking if my wig is not qualify for me to work on.

Well since this is on wigs and stuff. Got a question. How can I make a wig have volume? I try to make a wig of Final Fantasy Advent Children Reno for my sister, but it all came out flat and eekie since the wig had very short bangs where there shouldn't be short bangs. Reno has long bangs. Plus the w...

Usually when I put emphasis on a word, I use italics but yea, internet ways are different than my writing ways. Even so, I've never used paratheses just because I always use them to show kind of off topic stuff. O.o, it's strange how different lingo is! Very true. Well, now I know caps are your way...

I didn't yell, I wanted to spell out the difference and make it noticable so I used caps. I don't even use the caplocks to yell at people. O.o But yea, if that was me yelling at you, ask Mindtailor, cause yea...you were let off real easy. I was merely correcting you. It's just that I was taught tha...

You can try fetish shops, www.ebay.com or Hot topic.
These places have nice leather dresses.

Online Hot Topic has nothing at the moment for leather clothing, but don't let that stop you from looking around at the store near your house. They might have what the online store doesn't.

The boots you can find them at the internet for cheap prices just look around. You can also try to check out eBay for the material to make the rest. They sometimes have yards and yards of the good stuff for reasonable low price. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=74982&item=83043...
