Description The title has nothing to do with Cloud. It was really windy and there were a lot of clouds outside... clouds that were obscuring the sun then passing away.

I'm still battling with the wig, but it's something.

lemme 'lone... I'm tired.

Funny story: This particular incarnation is frankensteined from every other Aerith costume I've got laying around. The dress is new, but the buttons are from the first costume... and the hair ribbon and the jacket are from the latest.

The wrist bangles are wonderflex, gesso, and liquid leaf. And I'm a genius. I keep the bangles up with socks. True story. I took the leg part of the sock and glued it on the inside of the bangle. The inside was painted matte black so it looks like it's just floating there. They're my favorite part of the whole costume, I won't lie. The silver ones are just craft foam and paper mache... and they look like crap up close.

I think your wig looks great!  I had to send mine out for commission.  Unfortunately I have a short forehead, so wigs like that are hard to customize for me.  It looks really good on you though!

Aww..I miss seeing you as Aerith I was so happy at ikki to see you in Aerith, you make such a pretty one ^ ^ You make her costume well. And your funny stories are also creative ones, you gotta be creative to be a cosplayer hahahaha because all the crap that happens between making it and wearing it, and then wearing it nd taking it off, make you think hard anf fast to fix it quick X3

They're gonna be in the next wig, believe me. I also made the bangs WAAAAY too thin. Stupid ponytail wigs... I need like a million wefts for that thing... I had wefts showing everywhere in back and it broke my heart.

Next wig: bigger, thicker, more luxurious bangs and BARREL CURLS HAHAHAHAHAAAAA

It's Amphigory's Enchantment. I didn't want to do any stubbing... mostly because I haven't before, but also because I don't like the idea of using caulk on an expensive wig. AND this way I can let my hair down and put on a red dress lololol

Adella In reply to AerithReborn [2009-03-22 18:53:57 +0000 UTC]

I stubbed my ponytail wig and it worked out really well. I was pleased with it because it made the distribution of weight much better. I make it a personal practice never to order from Amphigory because I dislike their customer service and their shipping policy is bullshit.

AerithReborn In reply to Adella [2009-03-23 01:29:47 +0000 UTC]

I like their products, but I'll totally agree with their shipping policy. We all missed out on our wigs for Yulecon (Tinycon)... and they didn't get here until the Tuesday after. I already had a blonde wig... but my poor sister... she had to borrow my Roxas/Cloud wig for Seras. It was a nightmare.

But I've heard some pretty bad stuff about Cosworx, though. And the other two dealers were either overpriced, or overpriced and awful quality.

I've worked for cosworx and kyle is my best friend so I'm biased. All my wigs are cosworx wigs. RJ does her 100% best to take care of everyone and make sure they're totally okay and that they always get what they want, in time for their convention. cosworx is a cosplay wig shop so pleasing cosplayers is what they specialize in.
