Taking Costume and Wig Commissions OPEN AGAIN

I charge $10 an hour plus cost of material and shipping. I do not make my costume out of broadcloth, that is only used as a lining material. I mostly work with Twill, satin, Taffeta and silk.
I live in canada but I have done commissions for people all around North America.

My Chii one took like 2 days..most of them only take like 5 days max or so.

For your CCS one it would probably take a week for all the small detailing but would you want the armor on the hips made from plastic or fabric or such?

well what would be better?

and oh, the series is not CCS. Its Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's.

Like, i would need this done by Oni-con. But i would like it ship to me a couple day ahead of oni-con. So i would like it before October 19.

How much would it be if I suppled the material?

vietgirl018- I'm moving right now I'll try and get you a quote here this weekend.Sorry!

Kingdom Hearts cosplayer- It truly all depends on the costume. but I am very picky about my material. I do not use anything cheap, or anything that wont be suited to the costume. But it really does depend on the cosplay.

Oh okay it was an Organization 13 cloak and the material was going to be pleather because that really just what I need.

I'm not sure. I like them all and the blonde one with the green outfit looks the best to me while at the same time, the Kamichama Karin one looks pretty and cute at the same time. I like both the Galaxy Angel series as well as Kamichama Karin series.

I was wondering How much it would be for Lightning from FFXIII. I hate the costume I made and have given up on making another because I just dont have time. I will be needing everything except for the boots and black arm sleve lol. I dont need the cosplay untill Anime North 2008 (in May) I was hopeing I could pay ASAP and then you can get to the costume whenever you have time :D
Heres a link

hey katasha, you might remember me from the SC forums, and AE as well. I know too many cool poeple these days, I was just wondering, is there a chance I would be able to get you to make me a Ren wig from DearS for March or is that too little notice? if it is, I can see about making it myself.

Here are reference pictures.

You gotta pick the hard ones hehehhe, well I found the perfect base wig in the soft blue colour and I can make the antenna with it but I am having trouble finding the right extensions for the back. I'll keep looking around tonight.

Posted: Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:18 pm
by kawaiipunkd
you rock, any idea of how much it'll cost?

(hopefully less than Katie Blair's $1000 @_@)

Posted: Wed Jan 09, 2008 8:54 pm
by Katasha
ok sweetie no matter how much I have looked around. I cannot find anything that will match and so the only way I can do it is I dye all them myself and thats gunna cost way to much so I dont think I can do this for you.

I did find some great base wigs I can show you though but they wont have the falls off the back thats it.

i have a question: how much would it cost for this wig?

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y258/v ... an0003.jpg

Or do you think i should just dye my hair? I'm scared of the price for the wig.

I am not placing an ORDER, i just want to know how much it would cost, before i buy anything. Thanks

This is an amazing wig, great high quality and very easy to style. you would be able to add the beads yourself once you got it, But its the best I can recommend for you doing it yourself,

http://cgi.ebay.com/WHITE-Long-Straight ... dZViewItem

Dyeing your hair really would kill it trying to get it that white. and wigs are much more simple. And you can sell it once your done with it. Get your money back.

wiccaryan- I actually dont think I can do that dress, I live in a townhouse and I dont have anywhere I can tye Dye things. without making a mess.

ok, can you send me the link to the site that has the base wig, and maybe give me a few pointers, I've never really worked on a wig before ^_^;;

Would you please give me a quote for how much this dress would cost? :3 With a petticoat for underneath? I'm a ladies size small, if it helps. <3

Kawaii- I'll grab them all for you in the morning. There were a few. All depends on quality and such.

naminefangirl- For the dress (i'm guessing its around knee length) with a fully boned corset type top, large bow in the back and a petticoat. $250

Posted: Sun Jan 13, 2008 1:07 am

Is that with shipping? :3
If so, I'd be very interested in commissioning you. That price seems very fair. <3
May I pm you?

yaeah, I moved on from Ren to another DearS character. Fina Sama, now that I have enough reference pictures to make the costume...

I'm having alot of trouble finding a good Matsumoto wig in orange, that's fairly long and has bangs I can play with to make her bangs, plus being curly/wavy
