Shiva (ffx) help
ok so i want shiva to be my first cosplay costume. lucky comic-con is next year along with others so i have time to spend on making a good costume. my first question would be...where can i find a skinsuit light blue preferably ..a good picture to get a great idea for the accessories and where should i look to get the fabric and paint for it?
If you decide to buy a bodysuit instead of making one, try ebay. I've seen some full body ones that are different colors.
For my Shiva, I used body paint instead of a body suit...there are pluses and minuses. The plus is that it's your skin and it looks more real compared to a bodysuit, but a bodysuit doesn't get messy. I used Ben Nye liquid makeup; when dry it doesn't smudge, but it cracks a little if you glob it on.
It's good you are starting it early; it's best to give it time to make a really awesome cosplay. Good luck!
