Cammy White Wig

Lady_Midnyte · 02-05-2008, 10:58 PM

Okay I've been putting my acquired wig skills to the test. My Cammy White costume (Street Fighter) is still in progress but I'd like some feedback on the completed wig...

I know the wefts are a slightly exposed in the back but keep in mind that the beret will be sewed on and the blonde wig cap underneath will make it nearly invisible.

The rubber bands will be replaced with red elastics.

Any suggestion about the antenne in the front? It's much more exaggurated in the video game and anime but walking around with a chunk of hair sticking out is a bit silly...

Constructive feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Next time, would you mind posting a link to a reference picture? I know what she looks like, but it's easier to have the pictures side by side. ^^;
The braids look pretty nice to me, the left one might be a little thinner than the right one but it's not noticeable. I think your meche (sorry, don't know the English word for it) in the front is a little too thick; Cammy's is more like a stray bit of hair and that looks thicker and well-cut, so it looks too intentional.

I googled a fanpage of Cammy pics that I'm looking at now to compare to this, and it looks pretty good from what I see.

The right side braid looks a little thicker to me, not the left (your right if you were wearing it), or the left side is braided tighter/denser depending on how you want to describe it, BUT I think that's partially the lighting / camera angle, and it's a barely noticable difference anyway.

The hair in the front is a little too thick, as Kat said and in the pics I'm looking at it's... well here, this Pic is by one of the SNK artists, and they do their drawings a little more realistic then the Capcom guys so maybe it'll help show what I mean in regards to how it'd look on a real life costume...

So I think if you thinned it abit that might help a little.

Although Cammy has been drawn 'officially' by something like 5 artists, and unofficially by about 5000 more, so I could just be going off differant versions then you're looking at.

Anyway, really that's just some helpful nitpicking. I think if you put it on as it is it'd already look great, so at this point you'd just be refining tiny details most people probably wouldn't even notice unless they had a picture of the character in hand.

Best of luck in finishing it up!

I never noticed til just now that one braid was thicker than the other ^_^'

This is the reference shot I used

The front piece on this picture is a bit thicker, but thinning it up might not be a bad idea. It might make it easier for me to make the antenne.
