Yes, I'm open to suggestions. Torchic is really cute! How do you suggest to change what I have into a Torchic gijinka?

Just off the top of my head.... Add a fluffy/feathery capelet and a tiara/crown that resembles Torchic's crest. A wig would be cool too (preferably orange ^_-), as well as some light-colored shoes (pale yellow like your stockings or nude).

Hi, everyone. I'm doing a wartorlte gijinka and I have a question. I plan on using this for the shell. I was wondering do you think it will be too small.

break out a ruler the bag is 15 inches that's a normal backpack size, SO it should work well except for the mario bros tag on it XD I wonder if anyone would notice really? >_<;; it's hard to tell how much it would show on the sides thats all

Thanks! We don't have any rulers at my houes and I couldn't find my measuring tape T_T. Also I pretty sure I can just cut the tag off.

If I were to do a Charmander cosplay.. Somehow, could I put a light in the tail to make it light up? Does anyone have any idea on how to do this? xD

[LullabyeLaura]

@ COLCOL-Chan: I think that may depend on what you're planning to make the rest of the tail out of and how you'll attach it. Sounds like a very interesting idea

[COLCOL-Chan]

Hmm.. xD I'm not sure yet, I was brainstorming in one of my classes. xD But theoretically, if I were to make it out of some type of fabric, then put the light with some fluffy stuffing type thing, It would work, I just need a place to change batteries or something? XD

So, anyone have any suggestions for good poses for a Suicune gijinka? I have... no real idea what I can do.

[LullabyeLaura]

Hmm... Well, one thing you could do is look up other Suicune cosplayers, and see what they did xD You could also think about what type he/she is, and how that plays into his/her personality. Maybe watching some Pokemon movies with Suicune in it?

When I think of Suicune, I think of a pretty chill, but elegant Pokemon.

[Chaletica]

Yup, that's kind of what I thought too... I also think some water scenes for photos would be cool.

As of today, I have decided on cosplaying Zorua. Oh gosh the thought of wearing a very fluffy collar makes me giggle. LOL

I'm still trying to figure out the exact design for it... And find a way to make that poof stay up. Suggestions? Adding douses of whatever hair product?

[solstis]

it depends what fabric you are planning to use.

Something pretty fluffy/furry and long in length. I just requested for some swatch samples from Mendels to see if there's any to my liking. I'm willing to shell out a bit for some quality fake fur.

I never worked with fake fur before so any help is appreciated so I don't find myself looking like I'm shedding EVERYWHERE. .__.

[solstis]

I've never gotten 'quality' fake fur the stuff I get from the craft store is 1 scratchy on the back so you may want to either double it so it's fur on both sides or just use another peice of fabric. But 2 I don't find is shedding only when you cut it then you get bits from the edges. some fake fur is heavy too

most fake fur like real fur will stay up if you just brush it the wrong way X3 but you could also use spray glue rather than hair spray
