What sites do you use?
« on: January 21, 2009, 12:41:59 pm »
What sites do you use to give you tips for cosplaying? I'm talking about sites that help to learn the best way to pose, put on make-up, make costumes, style wigs, and even get in shape. I have a few that I think are very useful and I wanted to share them, as well as look at the ones others have ;D

For posing I use:

For make-up:

Binding:

Buying wigs I get all mine from:
http://stores.ebay.com/Professional-Only


So anyone have any other links they would like to share?

I've learned everything I know from lurking 4chan's /cgl/.

But I get all my wigs from Cosworx.

The anime eye's look really pretty.
I might try that when I'm cosplaying Euphemia.~

I've been cosplaying for a new years now but never to a con just for halloween ebay or cosplaymagic.com
though they both don't always have every anime/manga or video game charater but they have a lot.

plus cosplay magic has free shipping but they take a long time to ship so if you need it right away that's a problem. I think their shipping from china i can't remember I got one thing from there once. but their good for getting ideas.

Coplay.com also is good for ideas

don't know if that would help anyone but thats what i use ^_^

Cosplay.com's online store so website.

I pretty much use cosplay.com and amphigory mainly. My Starwars stuff there's a lot of help from the 501st and the Rebel Legion.

I'm not quite that experienced with make-up, so I'm really going to have to practice it before the con  8)

I'm alright at all of that but putting on fake lashes. I was going to wear some yesterday but I didn't because I didn't have them on right x.x
