About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
Never did a full set of armor, only pieces here and there. All armor was hand patterned, and made out of either/both foam and worbla. Back spikes were insulation foam and worbla. Lots and lots of pieces had to be layered together in order to create most pieces.
- Personal Thoughts:
- Definitely one of the most complicated cosplays I've ever made, and did not give myself nearly enough time to complete it. Considering remaking it one day, but not any time soon haha
Wig Details
- Styling Notes
- The wig had detangler pulled through first, then created each individual ponytail piece and sewed/braided in the ribbon (had poor reference photos at that time). Then the front bangs/face frame was styled and cut.
- Wig Review
- Arda ponytail wigs come in two sizes, either 22inches or 24inches. My head is 23inches, so I followed their advice and purchased the 24 and tried to resize it. Incredibly difficult to do and was still large/bulky on my head.
