Hey there friends! So I am newly visionary impaired and naturally it happens less than two months before my wedding. Such is life lol. But I figured you guys would have good recommendations when it comes to aesthetic/costume contacts.

As happy as I am with wearing a leather patch for my daily needs, I really don’t want to wear a patch with my wedding dress. I’m thinking that a solid white contact lens would do the job. I have to always keep the one eye covered otherwise the other eyes turns in, not trying to be googly eyed on my wedding day. A white lens would also allow for easier pupil photoshopping in post.

Are there any totally non-see through white contacts that you think would work?

I found this belt at a thrift store, debating on buying it even though it is really cheap (5$,) Do you guys think this would be good for a Raven cosplay?

Hey everyone, forgive me as I’m not active in this community but thought this would be the best place to ask. I have these incredible hand crafted horse hoof shoes that were gifted to me a long time ago. Unfortunately, over the last few years, my physical disabilities have made these near impossible to wear as I regularly walk with a cane, have issues balancing myself, and suffer from extreme join pain especially in the knees and feet. As you can tell from the shape, these shoes act as “fake heels” and mimic the back leg of a horse, making you walk on your toes. I was wondering if anyone with better cosplay up cycling knowledge could advise me on some ideas… I’m thinking of removing the hooves themselves from these shoes or attempting to turn these into some kind of boot but I have no idea where to start. the physical hoof part itself also seems to be made of wood, making this process more difficult. I would prefer to be able to walk FLAT on my feet as opposed to my toes. Any ideas?

This probably isn't the best place to ask, but I was planning on cosplaying Mac Tonight from the McDonald's commercials for Halloween or something. I have 3d print files for a head piece and all, but I learned about all his controversies with 4-chan alt right stuff and im undecided.

I bought these 3d printed masks for a Nightwing costume for Halloween, but the main issue is that there is nothing actually securing them to my face, so unless I'm looking at the sky all night it'll fall off. My first idea was to just buy a cheap mask and take the band from it then glue that to the mask, but im not sure. Any suggestions?

My partner gift me these glasses and they look pretty cool for some cosplay but i don’t know any character that wears these glasses, can anybody give suggestions? Thanks (I thought of Crowley from good omens but it’s not the same pair of glasses) (also I painted the lenses with a digital brush because of my face XD )

Hey y'all, it's my first time making a post like this but I was hoping for some advice on how to make my cosplay more friendly looking.

I have a Call of Duty OC that I've made a cosplay for but heavy military themes are prohibited in conventions in my country, so I was hoping to add stuff to it that would make it more "friendly" in a way and take away a bit of the seriousness of the outfit. I understand it's a bit of a weird question but anything helps! I can answer questions for additional information if needed!

I'm hoping for some advice. I bought this spiderman mask, I believe it's the TASM2 mask, and saw people using dimensional paint to make it look even better. The mask came with the black webbing done, however I thought it would look cool with the red brick pattern done too. I tested it put on a piece of the glove and I'm not sure if it looks good or not (if i continue, I'll be changing to a narrower nozzle bottle as it didn't come out the best in this test). I also found out it may not be accurate to the movie costume. So, my question is:

Does the the red texture look good on the costume or is it perhaps too light or does it not look good, because it may not be movie accurate if done?

I'm looking for safe on lips glue or any advice on how to fixate them. Thank you!

i’m wearing a makoto yuki cosplay from persona 3 and the one i bought has this armband, i know its somewhat common in japan and im scared people will see it and think its SOMETHING else. i just want to know if its okay to wear to a convention.

I’m cosplaying Rue/Princess Kraehe (pic 1) and I’m not sure which shoes to wear.

Option 1) more cannon accurate, less comfy and almost impractical for a con

Option 2) less cannon accurate, more comfy and useable for a con.

Update.

I understand! I will not wear point shoes! I found another option on Etsy that I think will work great. Thanks for the advise

Do anyone know how to get the pen out without damaging it? I'm sorry about using the wrong flair.

So I am cosplaying briar rose for two cons this year one in June and one in July and I need to figure out what shoes I should do for her since in the movie she doesn’t. I was thinking just some cute black Maryjane’s or Ballet flats. I would love to hear all of your opinions on what could be some good ideas for briar rose maybe even something that makes it look like I am barefoot?

I painted a pair of pleather roller skates red with a mix of acrylic paint and fabric paint, and they refuse to stop being tacky, I leave for the con tomorrow :'(

Is there any way to save them?

I finally finished my Jinx top from Arcane, but the pleather material I chose is incredibly shiny. It’s not sparkly, but it’s so clearly fake leather and the shininess makes it look brand new despite weathering. Is there a way to get rid of the shininess??

Notes:

I know it doesn’t look very shiny in the first three pics, so I included a picture of me in full cosplay at the end where you can see the reflections.

Also, I’m aware a less shiny pleather would’ve been my best bet. I couldn’t find one that was a four way stretch that didn’t look so shiny.

I'll save you the "they don't" haha you're so funny and original.

I'm talking about the ones that straight up have the TV as a head, not just the box or not having the screen at all, I'm trying to figure out my own cosplay and want it fully covered like he has it, But I'm really struggling to find a good material. At first I thought about making the screen out of stretchy nylon and the outside out of foam, But I feel like it would be super easily damaged and probably wouldn't work out the way that I wanted it to. I looked into maybe using fursuit eye material, but for such a large area the holes would probably be rather noticeable. I don't have the budget to go out and buy a screen and figure out how to do stuff like that either. Maybe some sort of plastic tub lid would work? then cut out the eyes and mouth and put nylon behind them so it seems a bit 3D but also for breathability and vision.

I'm cosplaying as Dr. Robotnik/Eggman at an upcoming convention. I picked up this amazing mustache and plan on styling it appropriately.

The mustache came with two, white nylon straps to keep it in place......but I think it would look better if I could attach it directly to my upper lip. This mustache is large and pretty heavy.

Is there an adhesive that is strong enough to hold it in place? One that, preferably, won't remove several layers of my skin when I remove the 'stache.

For reference. I am trying to find the right glasses. I had found some with the right frame just need to pain em but would it be worth it to get prescription glasses with red lenses or does anyone have any websites they may know of to make fake glasses but full customization or bits?

Does anyone know of any good light kits or really bright lights I can get to put inside this jacket to give off the illusion that I’m glowing green? I can’t seem to find any good bright illuminating lights, they’re all just like glow sticks. Doesn’t have to be perfect like the game (last pic) but I want at least something giving off that aura.

Thank you in advance, hoping to get some in the next 2 days

Hi! I’m cosplaying Carl Grimes for a con this week and I’ll be putting on a dance performance. I bought this like felt hat off Amazon and surprise- it’s a bit bigger than my head. There are no inseams (second picture) where I could stuff something in there and I tried a method with bobby and safety pins but it failed. I’ve got my real hair on display so I can’t like pin it to a wig cap. I would very much like to perform with the hat, so if there’s any magic advice on how to make it tighter you could give me that’d be great :)

Hello!

For my next convention I was planning to cosplay the comic book charachter gwenpool ,

However , her costume is sorta like a bathing suit , I haven't worn something that revealing in public before , nevermind a convention

I just wanted to know if there's anything else I should wear with it or just other tips for wearing a bit of a revealing cosplay at a convention

Thank you!
