Will a pit bull suffice for supervision? Or will I have to borrow my friend's cat/find some stray/kidnap a tiger from the zoo?

Anyways, thanks for making this. I've been debating doing a Toph cosplay, but I haven't quite decided yet. If I do cosplay as Toph, I will use this tutorial
I also happen to have a shitload of extra black wig hair from my old Neji wig that I hacked off for a Homestuck cosplay

LOL, I'm getting that now... started to carve the foam and nearly cut off my thumb. A cat would have prevented such stupidity on my part.
Lesson learned.

Amazing! How well do you think this will work out for a Male Toph ("Ember Island Players")? I've been for a long time debating weather or not to do this cosplay.

makeshiftwings30 In reply to Capt-Muteki [2012-07-06 01:48:25 +0000 UTC]

Okay, so I've followed this like it's a bible, but I'm confused. Where do you put the fabric and how do you sew it on

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

makeshiftwings30 In reply to Japanesedepression [2012-06-29 23:47:30 +0000 UTC]

you just put it around the rim on the inside and glue it on

Sorry to bother you, but this is a great tutorial and I'm going to use it as soon as I can get the synthetic hair. That's my problem...where did you buy it? When i try to google it all I'm finding is either human hair or short and wavy synthetic weaves :c
