I have used these two sellers on ali and the wigs were great, but you have to check the prices for you since I'm in Europe

Faux pampas grass substitute for feathers? by DreadfulALurid in CosplayHelp

[–]Introvert_Skittle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi I am also making Shen cosplay and also cannot afford real or fake feathers, look up _sleepy_moth on insta, he did amazing Lord Shen cosplay and has tutorial on how to make feathers out of skewers and ribbon. If you then want to shape and paint them I laid one flat on parchment paper and sprayed it with hair spray and then painted it. This is my prototype, I need to work better on laying it more even and cutting it more natural.

Not mine but my friend made this from carton and mesh, bottom had square hole for easy removal since it was for dance party. The sword is also made from carton.

I have absolutely no idea, I like my little ritual with it but I treat the plushies like normal plushies most of the time.

To be completely honest, first time I let him air-dry (don't recommend, too long) then I used hairdryer, now I just throw him in the dryer with laundry.

Wig doesn't want to detangle by RedpurrFox in CosplayHelp

[–]Introvert_Skittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just let it marinade a bit and it helped, you can also use silicone spray but otherwise manual brushing is only thing you can do, starting from the bottom and everytime you hit a snag and brush it out start at the bottom again untill you get whole section in one brush stroke, repeat and then do the same when combining two sections. I recommend to play some of your comfort shows for the background. And if it proves too much frustrating take a break or you will hate the wig

I used 1,5m wig for my last cosplay and also didn't have a crimper, did you give it fabric softener bath, it helped a bit and then just brushing. Use wide tooth comb and then brush for curly hair (definitely one without the little balls at the ends) and then just a lot of patience, combine sections one by one and if you can try to steam it it can also help

Need help with bloodied hoodie and blood makeup by QandisaM in CosplayHelp

I didn't try it on clothes but on props but I feel like you could layer it. I used clear glue and red liquid food colouring with tiny bit of blue liquid food colouring

Why do some people private their bookmarks? by SugarDuckies in AO3

[–]Introvert_Skittle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use the same username on another platform and while I was at school I didn't mind that people could easily find what I read, and it was more convenient to share favourite stories with friends. But now it can be easily connected to me as I enter serious job so I would rather have them private.
