Elise's hair would be a challenge tho.

I had the best idea for a Marth cosplay

-Dye hair blue
-Get tiara + sunglasses
-Get Falchion
-Get t-shirt that reads 'The Fresh Prince of Altea'
-And skinny jeans

Dooooo it

Except maybe dyeing hair.

So I really want to do a cosplay of my Character from FF XIV. I would do generic armor, The endgame paladin armor is wayyyyyyy to complex for a beginner like me, The head bones(golly I have no idea what to call them) I would make out of Molding clay. I still have to find out how to attach them to my face. I would use white face paint for the face and neck markings. I'm not quite sure how to get the tail working either. Any thoughts?

Tail:

I bought some three dollar wire and make a basic tail skeleton, then I wrapped white clothe around it and help it in place with gorilla glue.  I used some tape to help hold while the glue dried and for some bits that the cloth wasn't cooperating. Still working on getting to to stay up when I'm wearing it. 

As for sticking the horns(?) to my face I discovered that spirit gum would work and lucky for me the Halloween store had some in stock!

Bleh, meant to comment on this. x_x

That said, it sounds great! I was going to suggest trying to do something like a cat tail, since it's similar in concept.

Also I'm pretty sure that they are, in fact, horns. :V

TIME TO PLAY WITH CLAY

horns wip:

I ended up getting some instant paper mash clay due to it being lighter. Once It hardens I'll paint it white/ivory.
