How to Animegao

My small How To on how to do animegao ^_^

1. First of all you need to decide on a character, you can either make one up yourself, or choose from your fave anime or manga, i've chosen nurse joy as an example.

2.  Then you have to find a good mask/head that resembles your characters features, most doll makers let you choose from 3-5 different heads, you'll usually get to customize eye colour, eye brow colour, and hair colour (there's links at the bottom for doll makers), most heads have detachable hair so you can buy you're own wigs to customize looks.

3. Find your costume. If you're crafty you can sew one yourself to get the exact dress you're looking for, if not, there's a lot of cosplay stores online! Finding a nurse joy costume is fairly easy but you have to remember all the details aswell, socks, shoes, gloves, head wear, and for some characters special jewellery, and other small accessories.

4. Now you're almost set for your first character! you just need to remember your full bodysuit, that goes under the cosplay clothes you're wearing, you can buy this where you buy doll heads/masks

Good luck and remember to browse these links from kigup :3
