Do you have any tips on how to get taller, i am going to cosplay as Soubi and im short so i was thinking that i wear boots, but can you help me?

The easiest solution I can think of is platform shoes

Thank you for all your excellent and EXTREMELY helpful videos on cosplay. I plan to cosplay as sesshoumaru, and I keep being told his costume is incredibly advanced, and I'm worried I may be in over my head for it to be the first costume I ever made, I have someone in the family who is very good at sowing, but I just can't help but be worried, should I try something simpler first?

[TheTribalButterfly]

I would always suggest trying something simple to start with.

The LAST thing you want to do is give yourself too much of a challenge at the begining, and discourage yourself out of ever sewing again!

Besides, you want to make sure your cosplay looks as nice as possible - espechially if its a character you really love, so give yourself the chance to work up to doing something that is more advanced, so that you can do your character justice! :)

And only use your friend for GUIDENCE!NOT Sewing

I love your videos so much, I've decided to do my own cosplay tips and ideas videos myself because you've inspired me!!!!! Not only to do the video but maybe do sewing tutorials, craft tutorials and other stuff like that. Big thanks and the credit goes to you for inspiring me to do my cosplay tips and ideas videos! Love you!

Such a sweet voice.

@HinataPal55X3 ...to give a proper demonstration. 3. to do sewing demonstrations I would have to waste materials (fabric, thread, zippers, etc) and I just can't do that.

So, sorry, I do my best, but I cant do those particular videos.

The best you can do is learn the way I did - trial and error, all by yourself - there is no better teacher than practice!!!!

And the patterns will come with instructions and pictures too - just follow them, and watch my videos and you SHOULD be fine.

:)

[TheTribalButterfly]

@HinataPal55X3 I actually made these tutorial videos so that I could give you guys the starting points you need to making your cosplays.

As for sewing itself, there really isnt much I can show you - you put two pieces of fabric together, and sew - anything more specific than that, I'm sorry, I can't make videos for - 1. I dont have a cameraman to hold the camera over my machine (and I cant sew and film at the same time) 2. I don't have a directors account, so I cant make videos long enough...

[TheTribalButterfly]

True, but that doesn't make them any less of an option! :)

[narunarucosplay]

Yeah. Thank you. I will look for them. ;DD
