Beautiful Cosplay Wigs!
Jul. 22nd, 2003 05:13 amA little something for all my cosplay friends (that their significant others might want to shoot me for):
Katie Bair' Petting Zoo
Katie is one of the most talented wig makers in the world. She is probably best known for her work as the current artist for Ninja High School. Her wigs are well made, and my favorite part, very inexpensive considering the work and expense that goes into them. Check her out - she can do any custom character wig you could possible concieve of. There are some examples in her "Wig Gallery" section, and you can look up the prices for some of her previous work in the "Frequently Requested Characters" section. The bad news is, she's booked solid until January 2004, but that's why I am telling you about her now - so you have time to get things done for next year. :D
Oh for those of you that are familiar with Otakon, Katie was there last year (2002) as Shiva from FFX. She made the wig and her whole costume, you can read about this amazing costume project here:
Summoning Shiva
The links are at the top of the page to navigate the walk thru of her designs.
And just to whet your appetite for more:

These are pictures of her Shiva costume from her website. It doesn't say who the Seymour character is or if she did the wig, but damn good job on it too!
Ah... my evil plan is falling into place... heh
(Did I mention I can't sleep and I am punchy tonight? )
