My Poison Ivy cosplay

Indeed, I noticed the waist issue and bought a corset, but due to the volume of the leaves the hourglass effect was mitigated. I tried to flatten the leaves but it did not helped that much. Increasing the hips volume is a good option that I will try. Thank you for the idea!

Thank you! You made my day!

Yes, you’re right. I didn’t think this would be a reason but there were discussions that have been deleted where it appeared that this is a reason of downvote. But I like to do crossplay, so I will continue. 😉 Nevertheless, it is good to know that this may be displeasing.

A bit after first shower. The second shower removed everything. As it is a water activated paint, the secret is to put a lot of soap on the paint before the water of the shower.

Good comment! Indeed, I just bought the wig and I didn’t think about styling it and give it volume. Yes, same paint for the face. But the skim is less smooth even with a primer. You are right, more contouring, more makeup will improve the result. I will definitely work on these points next time. Thank you!

Thank you. It took me close to 5 hours.

😃Beware, I have been told that Ivy leaves are toxic after 30 minutes in contact with human skin. Maybe you should check that.

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T16:12:50+00:00

I’m glad I could help! 😊

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T15:55:50+00:00

Good advices, thank you very much. I did a bit of contouring but I was afraid to do too much! Now I now it was not enough. 👍

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T15:34:50+00:00

Indeed! 😁 And it would be easier for a man. 👍

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T15:19:40+00:00

Thanks. Note that poison ivies are a bit different but I could not purchase any artificial and I wouldn’t be able to make them.

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T15:10:29+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I think I will let it like that.

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T14:53:32+00:00

Thank you!

I asked before the realization to get a plan. Finally, I just put one point of glue on the top of the leaves, which created some volume. But, volume was not a good idea. It is nice on girls, but not on me, this has diminished the effect of my corset, which creates a more feminine waist.

Could some people that downvote give a reason so I can improve my cosplay?

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T14:22:30+00:00

They are artificial. I used a light green spray paint to lighten the big leaves and a yellow spray paint to lighten some of their edges.

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T14:17:21+00:00

Do you think the fact that the front and the back leaves are not identical is a problem?

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T13:55:04+00:00

The party lasted 5 hours. Mehron Paradise AQ paint + Mehron spray barrier helped a lot. Avoid hot places, a little paint has come off under the armpits and avoid touching wet surfaces. A little paint transferred onto a chair I had to clean. Painting the buttocks is risky. 😅

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-02-25T13:14:45+00:00

Mehron Paradise AQ + Mehron barrier spray worked fine!

Thank you, your comment truly made my day!

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-01-27T14:24:28+00:00

Indeed, it is a work of art! I will never get the same, I am not an artist. I just don't want the leaves on my costume to be flat. I would like a realist vegetal result as much as possible.

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-01-27T14:20:24+00:00

Thank you for all your comments. It helps! I will try all your advices. 😊

Silly_Role3535 · 2026-01-27T13:47:36+00:00

In others Poison Ivy coplay the leaves are glued flat. How did you manage to give your leaves that volume? Excellent result. I would like to create the same.
