Description Trying the impossible: An Inuyasha wig that looks like the anime-version.

After making the „Ranma“ [link] and „Kagome“ [link] wig, my own expectations on this one were set very high. Not sure though if I can hold my quality level this time: his pony looks kinda wild and I would have loved to form bigger strains of hair.. This wig really has given me a hard time, as it took me several tries to get the pony in a fitting look. The hair on this wig is over 1 meter long, and they are not easy to take care of.

After giving much thoughts to the ears, I decided to form them myself with FIMO. I wanted them to be 3 dimensional, „almost straight“ and just slightly tilted to the sides - just like dogs do when they pay attention but not acually looking straight at you. It is also the position in which Inuasha is painted most often.

Because the „pure“ ears on the wig looked kinda empty to me, I decided to fill them with artificial fur for a better look.

The copyright of the wig-pictures belong to me.
The drawings are sceenshots & the fantastic "Midnight wander" & "sweet summer" which belong to the talented artists ALM82 & escafan here in DA (don't forget to check out their galleries!! )
Have to say those are definitely some of my favourite drawings of Inuyasha ever..

Again PLEASE leave your comments, share your thoughts and let me know your critique on this one !!

EDIT: I have now painted the inner sides of the ears as requested . I will not put fur on the outer side of the ears, as this gives a too "fluffy" look and Inuyasha has never been originally drawn this way . Thanks so much everybody for the input, you truly are the best !!

I see what you mean on the wig, it's gorgeous! It looks like you know what you're doing That's the kind of effect I'm wanting to go for, it looks very close!

Great job capturing the hair which is exactly how it looks in the show.   Not many cos players really have grasped it the way you do which is what makes you unique.

Aww, this really means a lot to me !!!
I'm honoured and very happy to see that all the hard work of creating such a wig is apreciated and recognized.
Thank you SO very much for saying, dear !!
(and check out my other cosplaywigs on my galery - you'll probably like my tomoe wig aswell, since the characters have many similaritie )

How are you at styling hair period?  That is a natural and raw talent.

Hast du die alle selber gemacht ?!
Respekt kenn keinen der sowas besser macht ^^
Und wie kann man sowas machen ? Also das man die Haare
so toll und fast echt hinbekommt . Hatte mal vor mir ein Sesshomaru Cosplay selberzumachen ,
hab nach Vorlagen gesucht wie man einen Kimono schneidert und wie man halt abmessen muss und so aber hab leider nix gefunden -,- 
Der Anfang ist das schwierige für mich , wenn der Kimono dann mal passt dann geht der Rest von ganz allein ^^
Hatte auch schon nach Perrücken gesucht aber die sehen voll doof aus , da fehlt das Volumen in den Haaren
und wie es halt bei dir ist das der Pony richtig wie bei dem echten Inuyasha aussieht ^^
Find ich echt toll ^^

Aww, vielen herzlichen Dank für das nette Kompliment !!
Zum einen mache ich die perücken selber. Zum anderen habe ich meine eigene Technik, und meine perücken haben ca. 2-3 mal so viel Volumen wie herkömmliche standardperücken.
Gute Cosplay Perücken sind meine Leidenschaft: Ich arbeite so lange an einer perücke bis sie perfekt, d.h. wie der originalcharakter auf dem styroporkopf sitzt. Aus diesem Grund brauche ich auch mind. 4-8 Wochen pro Perücke . Meine Perücken müssen nicht (wie die vieler billig-anbieter) nach einer con bzw. nur einem shooting umgestylt werden. Sie halten Jahre lang!!
Bei meinem neuesten Inuyasha "Genderbend Shooting" (fotos auf meinem profil/galery) hatte ich exakt diese Perücke von 2011 auf- nichts geändert ausser die strähnen vorne etwas feiner gemacht (weil ich ja eine Frau bin und die Perücke ursprünglich für einen Mann war ). Insofern lohnt es sich IMMER in eine gute Perücke zu investieren, die dir jahre hält und die du als echter Fan in deiner Wohnung z.b. auch als "Deko-Element" verwenden kannst ( Wie viele bussis meine inu-wig schon heimlich von meinen Besuchern bekommen hat, will ich gar nicht wissen )..

Ich mache Perücken auch auf Bestellung- gerade arbeite ich z.B. an einer Sesshy Perücke mit 150 cm Haarlänge .

Kein problem ^^
Das gefällt mir total das in deinen Perrücken wirklich soviel Volumen ist ( Ich mach das nähmlich selber auch mit meinen Haaren )
Das denk ich mir das sowas etwas länger braucht bis es fertig ist ^^
Dafür können sie sich aber auch sehen lassen !
Bin schon gespannt wie sie aussieht Ich bin ein riesen Sesshomaru Fan xP
Zwar wird das mit dem Cosplay noch warten müssen da ich leider auch wegen meiner Arbeit kaum Zeit hab
was zu machen aber so ne Perrücke is ja schon mal ein Anfang ^^
Würde gern wissen was du für eine Sesshy perrücke verlangst ,
denn wenn ich mal Zeit hab würd ich mir das gern überlegen und evtl.
darauf zurückkommen ^^

Thank you so very much!! I feel honured you like my work ! I'm very sorry and I beg your understanding that don't offer tutorials etc.
I am open for comissions anytime, but only to very carefully selected people who are eighter serious cosplayers or true fans of the charcter they order. People searching for quality, and willing to invest into something unique and authentic .

puzzlefreak In reply to WhiteRavenCosplay [2014-02-28 20:58:02 +0000 UTC]

Thats ok. And I do understand.

You are very welcome. You did very good. I am a die hearted fan and have cosplayed as Inuyasha at Mid-Atlantic last year sadly with a quickly made up wig >< and my original hair. 

I am always looking for ways to keep him authentic and not how i normally see him portrayed. Took me forever to find my correct haroi and hakama as it is. Im actually commission Kagome's outfit for my daughter as she wants to cosplay with me this year. I love Inuyasha and want to make sure I do the character justice and not half a$$. 

At Mid-Altantic I was told I was the most authentic Inuyasha they had seen and I was still missing pieces lol xD. I have my cosplay of Inuyasha up in my gallery if you want to take a peek

see description . It's over 1 meter long, so it easily reaches over the middle of the back even with tall guys.
You can see some cosplay shots with this wig in my gallery .

The rest i've seen so far are all so.... flat. They just don't give you an InuYasha air.
