You make an awesome Sora, one of the best I've seen. Have you thought of wearing contacts?

Aw~ thank you so much! I have...I just can't justify buying them now when I can barely afford food >.>; Maybe when I have an actual budget for cosplay.

Thank you!!! Sora was my first real wig work. I can style that thing in my sleep now XD

Hummmmm...this was version 3 of Sora. I have re done the pants twice, the shoes once, the top jacket once, the shoulder pad thingies once, the gloves twice, and the wig about 4 times....so I think I've probably spent like 200 hours on it. When I first did the wig, it took me 3 hours, but now I can get Sora's style in 30 minutes XD The shoes are actually clown shoes that I covered (I can't believe that no one else thought of that...) and they took about 6 hours. I don't know, most of the time that I spent on this costume was spread out over a year and a half, so I don't know if I can really gauge correctly the amount of work put into it.

wow that's really long! The results are not lying! You have improved 
I have a little question because I never made shoes like sora's or others but is it possible instead of putting fabrics on shoes making it with paper machΓ© or polyesterone?? I was browsing but couldn't find any

Haha, yeah. Thank you!
I actually have no idea. I've never tried to make shoes any other way. I tried the first time with wonderflex to make the base, but it didn't work out. I would think that paper mache would be a little flimsy for shoes though.

;3; <333 Thank you~ I have to make all of my costumes myself. I suppose I can understand just wanting to dress up, but part of it for me is actually going through the process of making it. And then when you are at cons and people say "Wow, great cosplay" you can say "Thanks man, I MADE that" hehe.

Yus, its like ten times the happiness! Just knowing you made it and didn't buy it. I get really embarassed when someone compliments me on something I didn't make and I'd have to tell them XD; does that ever happen to you?

Actually no >.<; The only cosplay that I have ever worn that isn't mine is Roxas, I have never worn a cosplay that someone else has made to any convention. It used to be that I would have pieces that I purchased (Like pants before I knew how to make them) and I would have to say that I bought that part, but I like to think that I pretty consistently make everything that I wear
