If it's heat resistant you can use a curling iron on a low setting, and lot's of hairspray. Make sure to pin the curls in place until they've cooled down, otherwise they won't stick.

It's loosely help thread related, but I'm stuck trying to find a cosplay/anything for my buddy to wear. I'm wearing one of those horse head masks and he has nothing. I offered he wear a Scream mask (like Niconico people do) but he said no.

Any good pair ideas for a horse-man and something else?

[Anonymous No.6373424]

So I want to cosplay Skull Kid from Twilight Princess and I'm just making the plan up, but I'm stumped when it comes to the mask.

The head, as you can see, isn't really head-shaped. It's very round and I'd like to keep it that way, so the mask won't be exactly formfitted to my face. I don't want to make it out of paper mache for the sake of longevity and durability, but I want whatever I make it out of to hold its form, so that takes latex off the table.

I would make the mask more as a hard helmet, except I also want to give it a wood-like texture not just in look but in touch too.

So basically does anyone know how to make a hard mask with a bark-like texture to it?

[Anonymous No.6373438]

Seeing this color then remembering that you have a really soft and round face makes me think you'd be a gorgeous Merida from Brave.

[Anonymous No.6373462]

I'd make it out of foam. Wood would look nice but wearing it on your face all day just sounds uncomfortable. Foam is lightweight and a lot softer than wood.

posting this again, because I got basically no help when I tried to make my own thread.

Since this is the only hardcore sewing community that I know of I'll ask this here. So I have this jacket that I want to modify.

It has this "kanji' emblem at the top, and it feels/looks like it's riveted. How do I remove it/how do i deal with the holes it will leave behind.

2nd, I'm wondering if this coat would look better without the bottom pockets.

I'll get to shortening the arms a little later.

You won't be able to mask it completely, but if you carefully sew it back together and iron down the seam, it shouldn't be "too" noticeable. I'd just remake it if I were you.

Try to find one of those mascaras with a white end and a black end. Just use the white on your brows and then go over with red eye liner or eye shadow. Seal it with a setting spray, or if you don't have any hairspray is ok as a one time thing.

Depends on what colour you put over. Nothing is going to make it look like they're you natural brows, but it wont look bad. Just make sure that you apply the mascara sparingly in a thin coat or two. You don't want them all clumping up.

Because it's a pin strip I wouldn't do the ribbon. I would paint it on, via stencil.

Get some of that sticky on one side contact paper. Double it up and cut out your pin strip stencil. Just place and stick it onto your pattern pieces (before you sew them together) and brush on a good flexible fabric paint. Because it is such a light color on a relatively dark background you may need to do more than one coat, so do some tests! good luck!

>>6377512
Don't use freezer paper. Use contact paper, like this.

http://www.staples.com/Duck-Clear-Laminate-18-inch-x-8-Yards/product_825000

double it up so it is nice and thick and then use a exacto knife and strait edge to cut out your stripes. When you are actually doing the painting the adhesvie on the contact paper will keep your stencil from moving around so you will get a clean line.

Good Luck!

Need a stiff but light base for the "wings" Like perhaps plastic canvas that you can shape with heat over the stove and reinforce the edges with coat hanger wire. Paint it the color of the fiber or cover it with fabric that matches. Try to keep this structure thin as it's going to get bulkier as you add hair.

Use a couple layers of hair to cover teh structure and don't worry about how stiff and dry it might look. Use lots of hair spray, caulking, whatever helps it stick to the thing. Sewing down sections into the structure might help it stay in place. Once you have a solid layer of hair that is covering the piece use hair spray to add a final layer of hair over it that looks much more soft and natural.

I'm looking for the small 7/8" anodized scales in all colors. Ring Lord is out of stock of turquoise and yellow, so its pointless to order from them. I can't find anywhere else with turquoise or yellow in the size or stock. I'm not about to paint these fuckers. I need these within a week or so, and there's no restock info on Ring Lord for the turq/yellow.

[Anonymous No.6383236]

>>6382610
Do they really need to be anodised? You could probably get away with a lot by buying plain blank silver ones and spraypainting them whatever metallic colour you need. Not the most hardwearing, but for one used it might do in a pinch.

[Matt !o504RVa/WI No.6383244]

>>6383241
Depends on the spraypaint. If you can, spray it with your desired color and use a sealant on it that allow for more use.

I'm assuming this is for Aquaman? I'm doing a very similar method to my own Aquaman cosplay.

[BlakeRyan !!4E1IEjI9c+/ No.6383254]

>>6383244
Maybe I should use the black scales from Ringlord and paint over them? Paint would stick to paint, I'd assume?

And this isn't for my future Aquaman that I'll be working on next year, I'm not using metal scales for that. Fuck that'd be a pain.

This is for some accessories I'm making for that photoshoot, and I need to cascade them similar to chimera/hydra/dragon schemes.

[Matt !o504RVa/WI No.6383258]

>>6383254
Paint will stick to either surface, honestly, so it doesn't matter. Sealant and how much you use will dictate what sticks for good.

[Anonymous No.6383282]

>>6377510

The lining has to be a natural fabric, like cotton or viscose, so as long as your flannel is made out of natural fiber, you're good to go. Those are the materials that feel nicest on your skin and will absorb moisture when you sweat.

[Youmu Konpaku !MyonHUTINA No.6383486]

You'll need more than just a standard spraypaint; if you just give it one color coat and call it a day, it'll scratch off pretty easily.

[Anonymous No.6383580]

>>6382322
how would I go about casting my own?

[Anonymous No.6384237]

>>6383580
From my tut folder. Google has more tutorials as well! For moulds and resin, try your local art store. I would avoid Michaels cause mine had everything for nearly three times the price. If you're in Ontario I'd recommend Curry's, they have everything for cheap. Amazon, Ebay and Etsy are all great choices too.

Also, keep in mind you might have to change up your resin based on the side of your item. For small casts, epoxy resin is good but for bigger ones you'd want polyeurathane. Or at least that's how I remember it.

[Anonymous No.6384481]

So I know how to dye a wig unnatural colors but I'm not 100% sure how to get a nice natural looking light auburn wig. Every one I see online is either that purplish auburn, way too orange, or red. Then when I do find one that looks close it's labeled as light brown.

I was thinking of getting a light brown wig and trying to tint it.
>pic related; the color I wish to achieve

>>6383241
I've seen metal spray paint at Lowe's and Home Depot. I'm not 100% if you'll be able to find the color you need but as long as you put on the right amount of coats you need and then follow it by the recommended sealer it should work. Recently applied this to some items myself and so far it hasn't scratched off.

If you can't find it in the color you need always try hobby stores. They may have it or something you can use.

[Anonymous No.6385094]

>>6384481
Nevermind. Managed to chance on a wig the exact color.

[Anonymous No.6386898]

Does anyone know of cheaper alternatives to casting? I'm making a mask, and I was going to cast it in silicone (I need a soft mold for a hard mask), but the prices are completely fucking ridiculous. Are there alternatives? I want to maintain a high level of detail, and be able to have the mold survive so I can make a few of them. Any ideas? I've heard of the silicone caulking idea, but has anyone actually tried it?

Thanks!!

Most rivets are two pieces that fit one side into the other and then are pushed together in a way that they lock. That's usually what you see on clothes, and if it's that kind you should be able to pry the two apart with effort. If it's the other kind, where it's one piece that's basically smashed until it's flattish on both sides, then you'll either have to cut it, or widen a hole in your fabric to get it loose (which I would avoid if at all possible).

As for the holes left behind, see what they are like once the rivets are out. They may not be noticeable at all if they were small enough. If they are noticeable, there's a fusible webbing sort of thing they sell at sewing stores that you can iron on to the back of clothes/fabric to repair holes in places where there's not enough fabric to sew it together again or would look strange to sew. I'd test it on a scrap (maybe the parts left over after you shorten the sleeves?) to make sure it looks okay to you/will work.

Hope this helps!

I think your best luck will be to just get a wig in the color you like and in the closest length possible and then do a lot of styling. Arda has pretty great color selection, personally I would go with one from them and then taper the ends/trim bangs. Not sure how experienced you are with wigs, but I like to curl the ends inward a bit for a more natural look. Sometimes a little teasing can also help a wig look less flat or pin straight.

I hope that's helpful, finding a perfect wig is really difficult and most of the time you're going to need a lot of styling regardless of how simple the characters hair is.

I'm thinking, make that fleece tube, but stuff it with polyester filling. (Basically the stuff pillows are stuffed with.) Then roll it up so it has that rolled ram horn shape and put a stitch or a dab of glue on a couple of spots so it doesn't unroll. If you get it to work let me know how it went.

What would be the best route to painting on tights?

[Anonymous No.6402492]

>>6401957

It's possible, I imagine. It really depends on the materials the dress is made of though. if the ribbons and lace are different from the body of the dress, they'll take the dye differently.

Find some discrete part of the dress you can cut a swatch from, or maybe use a bow or tie that you could replace if you fuck it up, to test the dye. I'd wet the fabric first to make sure it takes the color evenly, then mix up some dye and dip the swatch(s) at timed increments to see how long you'll need to leave the dress in to get the color you want.

[Anonymous No.6402500]

>>6396122
Ah, yeah, you're right, now that I look at it. And it'd be easy enough to have the rear one drape behind my shoulder, while the front one goes in front of the shoulder. That should separate 'em enough.

Though, if I did want to make the rear ones poof out and defy gravity like that, how might I try to do that? Is that even reasonably possible?


Also, on the subject of >>6396000
I'm trying to figure out how that skirt can work. Clearly there's no petticoat, so do you think it would be possible to make those three green hoops a solid structure, and affix the skirt to the inside curves? Seems like that's the only way you'd be able to give it the poofy shape without a petticoat. But, I'm not sure if I'd be able to get it smooth like that... How difficult do you think that'd be?

I watered mine down (one part water to one part paint) and it went on fine, except for that when I would dab on paint, there would be a spot where the paint was concentrated and then an outer 'ring' where it wasn't (I was painting spots on, and painted a small circle before painting outwards in rings, if you know what I mean). Wasn't a problem for me, but it might be for you. Be sure to put the tights around a tube of cardboard (I used a poster tube) beforehand so it doesn't crack afterwards and you should be fine. I wore my tights three times, handwashed in between, and there is no problem whatsoever with them.

Measure your head. Buy a canvas block.
Example
:http://www.wilshirewigs.com/Canvas-Block-%28Sizes-19-24%29-pr-2351.html

It may seem like a lot to pay for a head stand, but they will last forever. If you want a super accurate wig block then take a tracing of your head. you will likely want a friend to help you.

Step 1: Cover your head with saran wrap
2: cover the saran wrap with clear tape so the saran wrap conforms to your head. Make sure to cover your hair line and ears.
3: Using a sharpie, mark out where your hair line is, front sides and around, also mark where your ears are.
4: Take the saran wrap/ tape of of your head and tape it so it fits around your block. It does not need to fit to the top. It should fit around the sides, not the top.
5: cut a few small holes in the tape/saran wrap and using a rat tail comb stuff pieces of toilet paper/tissue into you head until it fills up the shape and is hard. cut a few holes in different places.
6: tape up the holes.
7:celebrate.
picture related. It's my wig block. I also use it for molding head armor and junk.

[B-Bear No.6409285]

It looks like there is are holes in the obi/flower applique that the strings come through.
1: After painting/ you've completed the applique, sew a tight zigzag in the the size of the circle.
2. Only after you are certain your positioning etc is where you want it and your stitching is secure, cut out your holes. You may also want to use some kind of iron on interfacing on the applique to make double sure your fabric won't fray. This will also lend stiffness and structure to the applique.
3: thread your tassels through the the back of your applique.
4: sew the ends to the obi directly (since you don't want the stitching to show on the flower).
5: Sew/secure your flower to the obi.

You can make your own chainmail. It's cheap, but extremely tedious. If you're willing to put in the effort though, it will look awesome. As for the armor, craft foam would work well. For that helmet, which i would say is a basic knight helmet, you can find a pepakura file online and make it that way. For the rest of the armor, You can use a thicker EVA foam, and make the patterns yourself (it's really not too complicated). If you want me to elaborate on anything, just ask.

Transfer paper. Make the shirt, then use transfer paper for the logo. It works best on fabric that doesn't much stretch, mind. (also, always use the dark transfer paper, the light stuff looks worse and cracks faster)

So, this dress...I'm sort of at odds with it. For the base I've decided on a high waist skirt, but the top needs to be some sort of drape that gathers in the back for a cape. My problem is that I don't know how to go about doing this drape and making it sit against my chest without the fear of a gust of wind catching and forcing me to flash the whole world, even if I covered myself underneath.

I want to find some way of attaching it to a piece underneath...like a sewn in bra or something so that it clings to my body and won't catch in the breeze. I'm going to sew the bottom to the midline at the skirt, but I don't think that'll hold the fabric against my chest. I hope what I'm saying makes sense.

pt. 1
sorry on the late reply.

dyeing feathers is pretty easy actually. First you will want to purchase your dye. Ive only ever used Jacquard Acid dyes, but theoretically any other dye meant for protein based fiber should work. I purchase my dye from Dharma trading company as it is not found in any craft stores I know of. The color chart on their website is fairly accurate, but I usually do a google search for the dye color I'm interested in and it will usually pull up pictures of things other people have dyed. You can also mix colors if you just can't find the one you are looking for. Once you have your color picked out here's what you do.
Things you'll need:
your dye
a large pot (I just use a 10 gal from the dollar store. note: do not use this pot for anything else other than dyeing/crafting!)
Measuring cups/spoons
vinyl/latex gloves
tongs
towels/packing paper (to lay your wet feathers on)
white vinegar (optional)

[B-Bear No.6415184]

>>6415182
pt 2

1. Take your pot of water (here to know as dye bath) and set it to heat on the stove. keep the water hot and steaming, but do not let it boil.

2. In a small container (I use a pasta sauce jar) mix very hot water with approximately two tablespoons of dye and mix until the the dye is completely dissolved. (note: you don't have to use this much dye. the more dye you use the darker you feathers will dye faster. If you only need a light color then you can either add less dye, or immerse the feather for less time.)

3. Add your dye mixture and appx. 1/4 cup of white vinegar to your dye bath. (the vinegar is optional, but it will help make the colors brighter)

4. Making sure your feathers are clean, submerse them in your dye bath. The darkness of the color will depend on how much dye you used, how hot the bath is and how long you leave it in the bath. Do some experimenting to find what you want.

5. After you've achieved the color you want, remove the feather from the dye bath and submerge in a COLD water bath. This will remove any excess dye and stop dye process so your feather won't get darker.

6. lay your feather out to dry on a flat surface. I put packing paper on my drying surface to soak up some of the excess water. DO NOT HEAT DRY or squeez/pat your feathers. At this point they will look terrible, but once they are dried they will fluff right up.

7. After they are dry congratulate yourself on being awesome and dyeing your own feathers.

I will mention that if you are dying pinions. pointers, tails and flats they need to air tried on a flat surface, but I like to throw my down and semi-plums (basically the fluffy feathers) in a lingerie bag and put them on a no heat cycle in the dryer.

tldr: just go to rainbowfeathers.com and have them custom dye what you want.

You could make like....a petticoat. For your ankles.

Need opinions please~ Friend is going to be this Tom Nook but we're not sure what would look better for the tails and ears -- faux fur or fabric/felt for more of a mascot style? I'm leaning towards the latter since it would look cartoon-y, which is appropriate since he's a raccoon dealing in real estate after all. But fur would look nice too. I don't know.

I don't really have any advice, but I would LOVE to see pictures after!

Unfortunately it won't be for a while since we're just in the preliminary planning stages, but I'll definitely be posting them here once it's finished in the far future! Need New Leaf to come out so I can see how I can make my main character cosplay look like I'm from the game and not some random schmuck carrying a butterfly net, haha.

What type of fabric would be best for the green/gray body suit thing she wears? I have no idea what would look best.

aren't petticoats like big ass jacket things?

A petticoat is an underskirt used to fluff up a dress or skirt and make it poofy. They come in different lengths and shapes. Pic related, a petticoat.

lol I think you're confusing petticoat with peacoat. A peacoat is a big ass jacket.

I was going to say get a zentai suit for the under section but this looks like it would be thicker.

I don't know my fabrics so much, but maybe like...fitted cotton?

Not trying to be mean but google is a useful tool, people might want to try that first before coming here.

does anyone have tips or tricks for covering up tattoos?
specifically large ones, or ones in places with hair (ex: my legs)
will i just have to end up slathering my whole body in makeup?

My aunt is a model, and got an incredibly unfortunate looking tattoo on her arm. They cover it up with heavy foundation, then photoshop it out if it can be seen through the makeup.

Being a guy, shaving then foundation won't really be an option for you... I would suggest attempting what you can through foundation applied with a q-tip. There's not much else you can do, unless you choose cosplays where the outfit will naturally cover it up. otherwise, who cares? You don't have to be entirely in character.

I wouldn't just use foundation there's plenty of tattoo concealers
Kat Von D has a tattooo concealer you can purchase at sephora/ulta it works alright. I

dropped my pic

this pic is shooped to even the skin tone but it works , I have another that shows what it looks like without shoop

[Anonymous No.6420983]

>>6420977
this is what it looks like without shoops. the more red parts are her natural skin. I'd suggest using it in combination with a foundation close to your skintone. or you could use a skin colored zentai but that doesn't always look great
