Description

This is my first costume so I realize that it's not the best but I do plan on improving it one of these days. Maybe when/if the whole Naruto craze finally dies down.

This costume wasn't too hard. I already had the pants, shirt and the mesh shirt. I bought a waterfall village headband off eBay and took a can of silver spraypaint to it and drew the rock symbol with a slash through it with a black Sharpie. Why didn't I just buy the correct headband? Because none effing existed back when I did this cosplay, okay?

I also had the hair for Deidara so I didn't need a wig. And since my hair is already parted just like his hair, I didn't really need to do much to it except straighten it and brush it into a high ponytail.

The hard part was the cloak. My mom did the entire thing for me because I'm retarded when it comes to sewing. The collar isn't as good ad I'd like it to be because it falls down a lot. I would fix it if I could.

The legwarmers were mostly sewn by me and my friend's father. They are safety-pinned to my pants and the bottoms are safety-pinned too for easy removal.

The clay pouch was kind of half-assed but since I wore my cloak for most of the con, a lot of people didn't see it. I just made a pouch, had my mom sew it and attached longer pieces to both sides so it an be tied around my waist.

I had a ton of fun at Anime Oasis in this costume because I felt like such a bad ass. XD; The only downside of it was that no one really knew who I was and a few people thought I was Itachi. D<

NOTE: No, you cannot commission me to make you an Akatsuki cloak so don't bother asking. But I WILL answer any questions or help you with anything you're having issues with.

Worn at: Anime Oasis V, Fandemonium 2006 and Anime Oasis DX.
