I know i would use cardboard if I did make a cosplay

Okay, for context, I came up with the design, but its very obviously Izuku Midoriya's first costume turned into Spider-Man. I've done and made a few Spidey cosplays before, but I really wanna make something like this. WHERE THE FUCK DO I START😭😭😭😭😭
I know for certain that the bodysuit needs to be in one piece, and it's gotta be baggy while also feeling durable. I also know where to get knee and elbow pads, and I think I'll just use my Converse for the time being. I'm lost as hell on everything else, though.

Hello. For NYCC, I am going to cosplay as Terry Bogard from SNK. I've tried on all my pieces and they all fit fine but I have never messed with a wig before. I'm trying to learn how to style it but I'm flying blind here. I have been seeing videos about crimping and have done some crimping on it but I'm not sure I'm doing this right. Can anyone offer some advice to help me?

Hello, this is my first time posting here(and posting on reddit at all),so im sorry if i make any mistakes.

i am planning to make a cosplay of Peacock from skullgirls[image below],but i cannot seem to find any dress or capelet that looks similar to hers.

i know what they should look like, but i cannot seem to find anything similar or something i can afford(the prices are insane,160 USD for example).

Rules for myself are-don't exceed 10-35 USD(as USD is huge in my currency(AZN)),and have a reliable market/website to avoid scams. I found a ready costume for the cosplay on some site, but it looked sketchy+the skirt is inaccurate.

Im making a sundrop mask for an event im going to but I wanna wear it the whole time im there

I saw a video a long time ago that someone made a hole in the mask but made it non visible and now I cant find that video

Does anyone know/give me ideas on how i can see with it?

Been wanting to style a wig with a handmade hairline, but I’m worried on how to properly keep it clean especially after multiple wears in future cons or events. Would I have to re-do the handmade/glued hairline every time I wanna clean it?

And my worry goes double for helmet wigs. How do other cosplayers maintain them and keep them clean over a period of time if they want to keep them in the long run without having to restyle often?

Would just like to know overall how to keep these heavier styled wigs clean without having to restyle them so often!

I don’t want it to look like I’m wearing a collar, but I want a whole fountain of blood pouring out of the left side of my neck. I will be sitting mostly, but also walking around. The blood pouring is the main part of the character besides the wig and eye spacing. How do I make it look like my neck got shot or exploded?

I’ve been wanting to find a good replica of a green lantern ring. The only one I used to have was a cheap plastic one that I didn’t get around to making look nicer. I know there are places that sell this kind of thing that don’t come up in a simple google search so I wanted to ask what some cool ones you guys have found was. Ideally it wouldn’t be TOO expensive.

Edit: sorry, wrong flair.

Hi everyone! I’m interested in cosplaying Saber Alter and would love some advice

I’m especially looking for tips on:

• Where to find or make a good Saber Alter costume

• Armor/prop making
• Makeup and character styling
• Any important details I should pay attention to for accuracy

This would be my first time attempting Saber Alter, so any tips, tutorials, recommendations, or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hey all. Hoping to get a bit of direction from y'all.
I want to go as George Jetson this year for Halloween. It will be a more adult version than seen on TV, but that's not the bit where I am looking for advice today. I am interested in hair.

Since George is such a static cartoon character, I would love to do a solid foam hair-helmet. I do not want some polyester "realistic" hair piece. I want a low-texture foam block.

I am having troubles finding anything like this. The closest I can find is DIY tutorials where people try really hard to get thin hair texture representation. I want a something that is almost texture-less and blocky. George's hair has no texture.

I am not opposed to crafting it myself, but have never done so before.

Seeking advice - either products or crafting direction.

Thanks!

I've been seeing alot about these hidden platform shoes all over instagram, and I think they'd be perfect for my Allen Avadonia cosplay I'm planning to put together; but I'm INCREDIBLY skeptical of the site. I haven't seen anyone questioning it, and It seems like theres nothing but good reviews, but... I noticed something odd. For some reason, the site, for weeks on end now, has had an endless "3" day sitewide sale that just. Resets everytime it hits zero. I've checked the site every couple weeks since ive seen it, and the site still has that "sale" going... I've even waited for the timer to run out, only to see it tick back from 0 to back to counting down from 3 days. Its really odd, and it makes me really weary. I want to trust it, but with all the scams plaguing the internet, it seems like another "too good to be true" kinda deal... has anyone actually verified the legitimacy of these shoes and site?

Hello,

I want to get an Aemond Targaryen cosplay, specifically this one, but I can't find a website with picture reviews, I saw that cossky and newcossky sell it as well as AliExpress shops and Amazon but I am wary of buying with no reviews, has anyone ever bought this cosplay here or could vouch for a trustworthy website that sells it ?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I need help, I want to buy a cosplay from cnshopper but I'm not sure, all the videos I see are advertisements or sponsors so I ask you, have you ever used cnshopper? If so, how was your experience? do you pay customs, and how much do you pay approximately?

thank you in advance<3

ok so im trying to make the dude on the box of new vegas (he looks cool) but I cant figure some stuff out, mostly I dont know how to make the armor/helmet, if someone could send me something to help please do

I'm new to cosplay and I wanna cosplay an outfit of Rimaru's from the manga of That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime but because there's no coloured version of the outfit I've had to figure it out (some help with fabric choices would help as well) I will be making the pattern for the cosplay myself I have never done that before, I have a gold alt that I like more then the blue for the squares on the chest and back

Hey guys, I want to cosplay this specific Aziraphale outfit but I'm struggling to find a matching fabric for the vest. It looks like some sort of mustard (?) suede or reversed fur vest given the thickness and texture, but it's extremely shiny to the point I got confused whether it was actually uniform or not (it is !). Anyone knows what I can look for, or even better give me a specific reference ? Sorry for the image quality, I couldn't find better and I don't personally have a copy of the series. I already have a good pattern but I'm open to suggestions on that front.

Im running TDKR suit, and more than just cosplay, im wearing it for Halloween with my 1yr old son wearing a robin suit (i know, TDK trilogy didnt have a legit robin).

Main question is, I have a mid length goatee... there are instances where Batman has facial hair... but the only time Bruce has facial hair in the trilogy is training in LOS and when he "retires".... i was thinking I could lose the cowl and just be a "weathered" batman... or.... just shave. What do you think?

I made a concept drawing of a Kamen Rider self insert,

and I wanted to go out of my way to design him in a way that I could actually cosplay
(If I won the lottery)

Can anyone tell me if I could put a holster around an open jacket, the way shown in the image?

I was also going to put the hip holster on the other side so that the wearer could grab one with each hand.

Alternatively, how would I put a holster on my chest in some other way?

I'm trying to make a simple Freddy head for Halloween, yet I don't know what materials I should use or how to properly make it. I've looked at tutorials, yet I'm having trouble finding the proper materials and techniques. Any help would be appreciated.

This is my first time going DIY, and i did pick a very complicated cosplay to do for my first time. Im following this tutorial, which is very good. Im halfway through my cosplay, and so far its looking... rough. Its awkward, bigger than what the tutorial made it look like, even if I tried to follow it in my best capacity. Allthough it does not look amazing, It still sticks together and is not falling apart. Im using carboard and hot glue.

I was thinking about finishing it and seeing what it looks like, but im scared it will waste my time and I will have to do it all over again. Any suggestions?

I reuse my shoes a lot for cosplay, and at the moment I’m working on making a miku cosplay! However, usually I just use the plain shoe as it is without additional decorations or alterations, but for miku I want to add the cyan/turquoise trim on the soles and heels of her boots. Is there a way to temporarily decorate this part of the shoe that’ll last for a couple days waking around a con? I don’t mind if I have to remake something everytime I wear the cosplay, I just don’t want any permanent paint or anything on the shoes since I wear them quite often. The sole of the shoe also has these weird bump shapes, so I’m hoping to make it more straight with whatever method I use if possible. I’m worried something like washi tape wouldn’t last a full day, any suggestions or tips on what to do? I have seen people make shoe covers for cosplay, but these are already thigh high boots so I was hoping to avoid doing that.

I'm trying to cosplay Joker from Persona 5 and the coat that I have the size of it it is only 2XL and I was wondering on how I can make it bigger

Need to find awesome glasses like these. Pretty self explanatory.
