Need help with my cosplay!
« on: August 04, 2012, 01:03:05 pm »
So I'm almost done with my Gengar cosplay. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to make the 'ears' for it.


Is anyone good with making Pokemon Ginjinka ears? c:
Kumoricon 2013 was cancelled for me. Can't await for next year! Cosplay list will arrive soon.

I make ears ^^ I can help you out as well let me make you a list

What you will need... Whire (strong wire) Fabric/fur <(what ever you want to use) sissors, Cardbored needle and thread. headband.hair clips wire cutters.
1, Take cardbored and cut a pattern Into the desired shape
2, use the patter to make Two sides for both ears front to back you should have 4 parts for the ear.
3. rember to wear saftly glasses or something to protect your eyes when doing this Cut the wire to the size of the ears make sure it long enought to go from one end to the other. you want to be able to bend the wire so the ear stands up. Cut another pice of wire to it reached the bended middle of the wire ear. to support it to stand up. you can also use CArdbord and hot glue the ends of the wire to the cardbord pice or use styophome :D you need 2 of these as well
3 Take the fabric/fur to the ears and stick them  togeather. you want to stick them inside out frist and leave the bottum of the ear open. Flip it so the fur/fabric is out then slip the wire in and stich it up
4. Eather stich onto the wig or hot glue on clips or headband

and your done ^^  its very easy as well I got a demstartion as well I made awhile back so ill post it once i get it off my flash drive

From the picture it looks like you'd want to create "spikes", not ears with fur, so it looks like it's a part of the wig. In that case you're going to want to make a foam base, then cover the base in the same color wefts as your wig. :)

Granted the spikes in this tutorial are much smaller than the ones you'll need to make, but the technique is the same! http://fav.me/d2dq2ag

This is is more what I'm talking about: http://media.photobucket.com/image/recent/demon_yuki/1208228791862.jpg

Hope that helps!
