I'm thinking of making a Cloud Strife Advent Children costume sometime. I was once Anakin Skywalker for Halloween [back before I knew how much I actually disliked the prequels...]
Mee too! Although I'm having a lot of trouble finding a good wig to make Cloud's hair. I used to dress up as Darth Vader quite often as a kid during Halloween. He's my favorite Star Wars Character!
Wigs are a complete pain, I say. Hate the bloody things.
Bought a couple, one for Bridget, and another one for Noel Vermillion, another favorite character of mine. Noel being her:
I dont actually use that cosplay all that often though. The Bridget one makes me paranoid enough. Noel makes me REALLY paranoid, and just as with the Bridget one, people get a tad strange about it at times. Also those rope things get caught on every conceivable object that they can. They're just as long as they look.
But yeah, I bought wigs for both, but A: I cant get the damn things to stay on, and B: I already have so much hair, I cant get it all UNDER the damn things. For those two characters though, nobody seems to notice the problem (in Noel's case, it's because she normally has a hat on, so her hair looks shorter than normal as much of it is in the hat).
If I'm going to do Misery though, the character in my avatar, I'll *need* a wig, because her hair is freaking BLUE. This fact annoys me. It's either that or find a way to temporarily dye it, so it's able to be washed out after one day.
I'm bloody determined to do that cosplay though; there really isnt another one I desire to do more than that one right now.
Cosplay as a whole though, it can be a tad frustrating. And nerve-wracking...
