Ok, I am going to be Reala for halloween. I am making my own Genjika-like rendition. I have a black t-shirt, a red zip-up hoodie,and jeans. Im am going to dye my highlights bright red, and wear fangs. I was thinking of attaching the 3 cloth diamonds that Reala has on my black shirt. And what do I do for the horns? I only have a week and 3 days,so I need something quick! Any suggestions?

EDIT: I shall officially name my costume....
INFRARED REALA!

...Is that going too far?

[kidninja]

i saw a building horns thing around the non forum part ill be back to tell where it is but unfortunately u might have to get a jester hat like NiGHTS's

found it its at the main site look in contents-artwork-NiGHTS cosplay-then find the small link in the lower left i think labeled tutorials then "how to make realistic maren horns"

[The wise Kitsune]

Thanks but...I dont know if I can do that in a week and 3 days!

[kidninja]

exactly what i said you might just have to find a hat like NiGHTS or find somebody to make one all the help i could give sorry

[The wise Kitsune]

Poo. I guess I will get devil horns and a devil tail.

[kidninja]

still could be a nice costume idea *thumbs up* im going as the grim reaper or a orginization Xlll member (kingdom hearts)

[The wise Kitsune]

Lol,cool. I was going to be a funky witch until I saw some masks. Then I wanted to be Reala.

Horns in less then a few hours...

(1) white package of CRAYOLA Model magic
(1) package of assorted acrylic paints
(1) pack of assorted paint brushes...or q-tips.

(1) Package of Whoochie Spirit gum,
(packages of spirit gum remover...essential)

Mold your horns with the white model-magic, it will dry to a lightweight foamy consistency,
Paint with acrylic, (spray glaze tops only if sheen is desired, leave base un-polished)

To apply to skin:
clean skin with witch hazel, or rubbing alcohol...let dry.
apply a small amount of Spirit gum to skin and to horn bottom...let dry tacky, touch horn to tacky glue on skin...wha-la!
Horns!

Thank you! You (and Kid) are lifesavers! After I am done I will try to take pics. Is there any way to attach the horns with a ribbon or something?

yes, just make sure you make them flat on one side, and run a pencil through them while wet, to make them like beads.

run the ribbon through when dry (this method works with super sculpty too) Adjust them on your head, and sinch the ribbon TIGHTLY around your head.

[The wise Kitsune]

Ah Ok. Thanks again! This will really help!

[kidninja]

[The wise Kitsune]

The ribbon is holding up the actual horns, lol. ITS SO UGLY! I just need to paint it. How do you like THEM apples?

[Xenon]

damn... that was quick! Looks good! I only with that making a NiGHTS costume for JoD launch day was this fast... T-T

[The wise Kitsune]

Yeah,I had to put plastic wrap on my head while she molded it. It looked really Funny. It only took an hour to mold, but it is taking 24 hours to dry, then I have to paint it. It is really easy to make, so Get cracking!

[LadyTwinkle]

gotta love model magic!

[kidninja]

[The wise Kitsune]

Thanks! It was really my mom who molded it.

[kidninja]

[Sairus]
