Re: Rose Tyler (Doctor Who) costume

Seeing this in person, I got to say that I love the wig and choices so far. You really pull of the part, now I look forward to the accent

Thanks, you! I'll get tha' accen' goin' one ov deese days.

Wow Laam! You really look the part. I see you've been practicing your Rose mannerisms.

The wig has some good body and shape to it. It could use a lace front (or does it have one? It looks like it might in one pic, but not in the other), but it looks like its a good enough wig to have one installed somewhere down the road as a future upgrade. Its got a better vibe than most of the Rose wigs I've seen.
Where did it come from?

It's got a lace front already ;] I got it at a local place but they're online as well under the brand "futura". Glad you like it! Just needs some roots and a trim.

Wow! This is looking fantastic. I love the wig.

Thank you!

I;ve seen this wig in person on you and its outstanding! I would have been fooled had I not known your real hair otherwise. Oh- and thank you for the reference pic, now I know who your cosplaying and its pretty impressive!

gaaahhh I'm so glad you think it looks convincing!!

Looking great, Laam!!!!

Chris

It never ceases to delight and astound me when an individual in this community works so meticulously to craft and perfect there representation of a character so indelibly familiar to many with such zeal, you did an absolutely fantastic job Laam worthy of many a gold star. :thumbsup

Aw thank you <3 it's been a lot of fun and it's just such a great bonus when people appreciate it!

Better looking than Billie Piper, too!
Really clever "build" as I imagine some of these items were not so easy to find in the U.S.!

Damn your icon. I read that in Jack's voice.

Photoshoots, photoshoots for everyone!

Re: Rose Tyler (Doctor Who) costume

Nearly finished! I still have to work on the roots and change some things around but for now, have these near-completion photos!

lesson learned, flash is bad for that wig and I need to find a brown dye with less red pigmentation.

 

[aeryn]

Perhaps a black overdye to compensate for the reddness? I've never dyed wigs before, but I would think it would darken it enough and cover up the red tones.

 

[Angelus Lupus]

Perhaps a spray with matte hairspray, or one of those dry-shampoos would reduce the reflectiveness you get from the flash?
Either way the costume is great, you just need a little more 'chav' attitude :lol

Found a tutorial specifically about adding roots to Rose wigs: Rachael - Rose Tyler wig and Mini-Tutorial

Looking forward to hanging with you and Nine at Gally!

 

[DarthGM]

That's a great looking outfit! Well done!

And yeah, lesson learned with the roots. You'll get it!

 

[MetalMangler]

That looks very well done! When I saw your placeholder pic on page 2 my first thought was why you had the real Rose Tyler as a placeholder?!?!

MM

Nice job Amanda...though I STILL haven't watch the show.

I know, I know. :$

That's actually the one I followed! I think I'm just going to have to switch to a black marker instead of a red one and deal with the blue undertones. It's better than red one. Thanks though, can't wait to see you!

And when you get tired of Rose you can use the wig and shirt and cosplay as 84's Joe Elliott -

 

[Laamberry]

That's gorgeous.
