Description

I finally completed my Marshall Lee cosplay!! Except for the guitar cx
I have worked to get this finished for months, and got pushed when I heard on last saturday there was a small cosplay thingy close to my town ^^

I would have gotten better pics, but I got home around 2am and just took on some make-up where it had faded and took a few simple photos before I took a shower and went to bed, so sorry about that :c
(This is also why I don't wear the shoes)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

For the cosplay I found the shirt a few months ago, but couldn't get it in small,so I had to buy medium which was a bit large, but worked. I didn't have any blue pants that fit me anymore, so I had to sew in an old pair
(despite everyone saying it's impossible to sew jeans in.. but I showed them, I SHOWED THEM ALL MOAHAHA :evillaugh:.. oh back to the tutorial ._.)

I bought grey body and facepaint/make-up(It looks blue in most light settings I noticed -.-'').
I also bought dark elf ears and painted them with the grey paint before and some after attaching them. I also bought some vampire fangs, but they looked horrible once I put them on, too white for any mouth and uncomfortable on. I spraycolored my hair(a whole can and it was still some brown left xD).

I painted the skin around my hair, my face, neck and down to my chest, and painted my arms up to right over my elbows. After all of this I had used up all of my scholarship and savings, so I couldn't afford red converse, but I came up with a backup plan, I had a pair of almost unused grey converse and since my mom often supports me in my cosplays she gave me money for some red textile paint :3
(And it worked great, I didn't want the shoes to be all light red and borring either, I wanted them to look as if someone painted them with blood :3 And they did xD)

If requested I can maybe take a few better more "role-play" set photos.
