This is a short journal with construction notes about making my (simple!) nagisa cosplay in both his swimsuit and winter uniform versions! (: 
The cosplay may be simple, but like every other costume getting your details right is important, and I tried my best. First thing I did was get a better wig, I waited and took advantage of Arda's 75$ gift certificate to order their style Derek in Light Blonde, Ginger blonde would be great too! I ordered this wig because I have a small head, and any other curly wig by them would be loose on my head, so, with this style, I could curl it into my own desire ~ 
 
Step two was getting the lenses, and I bought my Crystal Max lenses from Alice & Rabbit in Red, they would look perfect on someone with slightly less dark eyes, but they look fab all the same! They make me look more innocent and youthful, a kawaii shota like nagisa XD 

The swimsuit mas made using stretch shorts mean to slim them ladies, and painting them with a lot of patience over the course of several hours, using several layers of paint. It was painful, but definitely worth it! 
The t-shirt (yellow iwatobi special) was painted, instead of being printed since it was cheaper, and long lasting (by using good quality fabric paint). It doesn't fade with washing and requires little to no touch up, however, it is a painfully slow process and it takes a looot of time!!! ;_;
The Jacket is to be ordered as I won't be making it, the cost in fabric alone is bigger than ordering one online, so I'm opting for the second choice. I haven't ordered it yet because I can't afford it now /sobs


The Winter Uniform was a whole other gamble. First I had to get a black suit jacket with the right cut, I found the perfect one for cheap, so that was awesome! I know a lot of people haven't noticed, but the jacket's cut is exactly the same as the one they have in the ref sheets (; 
The white shirt and pants were pre-owned, and I bought 2 different ties to better suit the shoots mood. One slightly darker, and more sober...and the other, vibrant red! 
Shoes are plain schoolboy shoes I got second hand for 5 euros! I use them a lot and I might need to get new ones soon ;_; 

I hope that was helpful! Any other questions feel free to ask ~

First thing's first, I'm broke! If you'd like to support my art/hobbies can you please take a look at my commissions? Reblogging the post is a big help too! Affording art supplies and transportation fees is tough and getting a little money from these commissions helps ~

Onto cosplay!
I'm just about to finish my Splash Free! Nagisa cosplay, and I got the new wig in the mail a few weeks ago.
My Levi cosplay is also going alog steadily, albeit in hiatus due to lack of money /sobs
My Badou wig (an Eowin from Arda wigs) looks fab, and I can't see shit in his cosplay, but I'm one t-shirt and a jacket away from finishing one of his cosplays (:
Here are some previews:

I'm going to kill the person who forced me to read/watch snk after being so careful as to avoid it because I FUCKING KNEW I WAS GONNA FALL IN LOVE AND KNOW WHAT THE FUCKS HAPPENS WITH COSPLAY? WELL FUCK THAT I HAVE NO MONEY HOW'S THAT SHIT GONNA HAPPEN ;_; 
I'M ACTUALLY QUITE HAPPY AND EXCITED BUT FURIOUSLY MAD AT MY WALLET AND LACK OF EVERYTHING BECAUSE LEVI

THE END

P.S.: I'm sorry /hugs you
