Cosplay help! ヽ(；▽；)ノ

I've decided to cosplay as a Len Kagamine for the anime expo '11 but i'm not sure which version of him i should be .......currently im leaning toward Imitation Black Len.......but again im not sure! Help please?? And also if you can link me to some cosmetics to make skin look doll-like ( u know what i mean pfft ) and ur personal suggestions, that would be awesome!!

Thanks for ur help o U o i really appreciate it <3

My budget for this project of mine is under 400-500$ > U <

Imitation Black is good! d( >v< )b
why not sure? If you have Kaito and Gakupo, that'd be awesome.

Try finding good cosplay as reference (wig styling, makeup, material for costume, etc.)
for makeup, I can't explain well but you can search any tutorial on internet. Michelle Phan on Youtube is good! O.O
But since Len is a young boy, natural look ish the best :3
good luck

Thanks! ( however sadly im alone on this one ; v ; no one is going to be kaito or gakupo D;)

Thank you for ur advice!!! ; A ;

cosmetics... uh I use bbcream before putting foundation to make it look smoother and make ups will last longer ...

yay for makeup! I need to learn more~ arr

*is too manly to wear makeup for cosplay* /shot

OK OK, I'm not manly at all >_<'

@silver bbcream? I'll search it up thanks! :DD

@lemon i do too!! Im so oblivious to these things!! ; A ;

@remon xDDD

BB Cream is awesome :).
Ooooh, yes, guys wear make-ups, especially me. (BUT HEY, ONLY DURING COSPLAY PHOTOSHOOTS OR CONVENTIONS>:l)
Errr, I suggest you Imitation Black. For the make-up, you'll need a black lipstick, black eyeliner liquid or crayon depending on you, blue circle/contact lenses if you can, BB cream/concealer/foundation (anything that covers imperfections on the face), no blush since Len is like a porcelain doll in Imitation Black XD. Well, that's basically what I'd do if I were to cosplay Len in Imitation Black. Oh yeah, you could trim your eyebrows (Never seen your face) and color them with yellow eyeshadow or a yellow crayon (Y'know, those used in circus to paint your face like an animal or anything like that).
Or if you prefer not to trim your eyebrows, try to use a concealer/BB cream/etc, to make your eyebrows seem thinner.

Well, theses are my tips, I can't say that it'll work on everyone, but that's what I'd do. :)

AND YES, BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS, I HAVE A BUNCH OF MAKE-UP IN MY ROOM THAT BELONGS TO ME. =3= (And of course, only for cosplaying)

looks like Nagisa-san is more womanly manly than me

Im definately getting bbcream then lol

Thanks for the tips! ; v ;

I gotta start buying cosmetics D;

agree... *shot self*
Try to focus too on the "eyes part" hehe that will make your cosplay stunning too...
will gave you moar bishie effect... make it less curvy and emphasize edges (ofcourse after the wig and costume issue)
since its len like Nagisa-san said its important,
(you could trim your eyebrows, then conceal it with concealer,,,then you may use brown or if you have yellow eyelinew..in my case uh..i use yellow acrylic paint hehe its moar effective... for me but careful if your skin is more sensitive... I remember when I cosplayed Xanxus back then I shaved my brows *SHOT LOL)

Oh goodluck to your cosplay

Hmmmm wat tyoe of bbcream is best to use ?

I also use makeup while cosplaying only 8DDD

YELLOW ACRYLIC PAINT?! wwww
oh yeah! my friend used purple acrylic
eyebrow.. I shaved once to make them appeared lighter 8D

I think you should do makeup test. yellow brows sometimes don't fit face. Try using light brown-orange (oh, I can't explain it well) because it looks more natural.

oh yeah, for wig, use blonde! don't use shiney light yellow for natural look!

natural wig, eyebrow and good makeup will make you stunning even more :3

One that has the same type of skin color as you .

OH, I FORGOT SOMETHING HELLA IMPORTANT: FAKE EYELASHES!!!
Bottom and top =3=.
Try to pick some that are low-priced, natural and pretty.
When it's too thick or too-not-natural, it'll ruin the cosplay. (In my opinion, as always.)
