Well, I'm probably not the best person to answer (I've barely seen any Naruto and I've only read the first issue of the manga), but from looking at screenshots and whatnot on Google Images, it looks pretty brown (some of the pictures almost look green--but then, yours looks a little green to me, too...

Question about Coloring Fabric

Okay, I have these boots that I need to color (they are white and I need them to look more like khaki). However, they are made of this strange, plastic-like fabric. Maybe it's vinyl? I don't know. Anyway, is there any way to evenly color it (like, markers could work, but I don't think it would be ve...

Thanks, apparently I didn't look close enough at the CosWorx wigs. ^^ I think I'm actually going to go with Maggie (it seems to work the best in this situation...and the price is nice, in my humble opinion).

Wig Help (Dyeing)

Hello. I know there's a thread about wigs, but I just have this quick question. Could I dye this wig?: http://cgi.ebay.com/Easy-Unbending-Prety-Dark-Blonde-HAIR-WIGS-WIG_W0QQitemZ6871009488QQcategoryZ60188QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I'm just making sure before I buy it or give up.

Thanks for the suggestions, they sound really good. I'll have to try them. As for the bottom of the shoes...I dunno. I think I'd worry about walking around on fun foam. ^^; That's why the shoe idea seems attractive to me--it'll be like...walking around on shoes. I dunno.

Thanks again!

Help with Boots

I know, I just posted. This is what happens when you start a costume and plan another at the same time. ^^; So, I'm going to do MOMO from Xenosaga (here is a reference: http://www.xenolegacy.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=1&pos=34 ). I've already made plans on how to do everything, but I'm unsur...

I'm making Pudding from Space Channel 5 (here's a reference--she's the one wearing blue: http://www.mobygames.com/game/dreamcast/space-channel-5/screenshots/gameShotId,25869/ It's not a very good reference, but I swear that's ...

I'm afraid all I could find was a picture of the back of that costume. ^^; It looks like the front might look just like the normal costume, just differently colored. The belt thing looks different, though. >_> Anyway, here's the back. Hope I helped, and good luck. ^^ http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bi...

Have you tried Goodwill or Salvation Army? My friend found a nice one for her costume...though that was sorta lucky. Anyway, you should try it, they sometimes have things like that.

Sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck!

Real hair. I've tried just doing a high ponytail, but it doesn't look quite right, I end up having to put it in a normal-ish ponytail and then clip it to the back of my head to make it stick out like that. It might be my hair-length, I don't know. Is there a better way?

Does anyone know a good way to do one's hair like Rikku's from Final Fantasy X? I can do the braids correctly, but I'm having trouble getting the ponytail-ish thing right. ^^;

Well...as far as the top design goes, I'd use felt cutouts. 'Course, that's all I know how to do, really (I'm a newbie at cosplay). It stretches a bit, though, so you'd have to...like, cut the felt design out and pin it (carefully) onto the outfit while it's being worn. And it might not look quite r...

Does anyone know how to get that lovely white-pink gradient on FFX Yuna's sleeves? My friend and I are puzzled. Thanks!
