hi there ^^ me and my boyfriend plan to cosplay rachel and ragna for anime expo this year,this will be my first cosplay where i have 800 dollars saved up for it, as well as my first time for ax, I want to make a good impression, so I plan to do it as professional as possible, still though, I'm worrying it won't come out good enough, my main concern is the wig...
http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/9/9/3/2/8/3/webimg/274619461_o.jpg as much as I love it, the bangs are not like her's and I have no idea how to style it without ruining the wig for re-use, that would kind of be silly to buy a wig and only re-use it for one cosplay... I was hoping to have it be used for mayabe utau from shugo chara later on or something (like if a friend barrows it) since its really nice and all, and you can always detach the clips for a shorter haired character...so once again im at loss, I'm by no means a prefectionist, but i'm really tired of giving a cosplay my all and have nothing good to show for it, I've went through buying cosmetic contacts, costmetic plaster fangs, custom comissioned umbrella, dress made from a lolita cosplay shop, bought these boots: http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/908/blazbluerachelalucardco.jpg and even went to the trouble to get my hair ribbons commissioned, I would be heartbroken if this didn't end up right because of the stupid bangs : [ what should I do? I've also found its really difficult to find a decent quality ragna wig -.-; the ones i've looked at were spikey and all but not long enough : / oh well..
he would be someone else, but we thought that suited him the best because hes pretty tall for an asian, actually the same height, 6ft , and blonde hair just would not look so well on him :x I really don't want to have to back out on this >< I apologize if I seem uptight about it or anything, i'm trying really hard not to be.. I just am not sure what to do..if anyone has any suggestions please let me know, thank you for your time for reading this ^^;; I know it was quite a mouthful.
and would you say this is okay for ragna? or should we just try to have it comissioned...?
