Making thigh high boots - The cheats way by *LolaInProgress
I thought this was a really interesting technique. I personally have trouble keeping thigh high stockings up, but this method may work for a lot of you, and it looks fairly simple.

Garter belts help keep them up. Sometimes you can just use clasps

You heard right: INVISIBLE SHOES!
A great tutorial on making invisible shoes for all those characters who run around barefoot.
I have been saying for weeks: I cringe whenever I see Jack Frost cosplayers standing bare-foot in the snow, or Rapunzels wandering around convention floors or gravel roads in bare feet, and so on.
This is the answer.

Hey, I know these ladies! And they rock. :D
Here you go, anon! The specific animal I’m going for here is a Black Welsh Mountain Ram, but you can modify this look to fit your hair/wig color and animal preference! This is definitely not the most impressive cosmetic work for fauns, nor is it completely my original idea, but I hope you found it helpful. Enjoy~
TUTORIAL!! Cheap & Easy Wig Stand!
There are long neck mannequins you can buy, but
- the longest i’ve seen is only 20in (about 50cm)
- they’re DEFINITELY not sturdy enough! wig heads are light and fall all over the place without the ridiculously long neck, and their bases are never wide enough to stay still properly
- there are clamps and suctioning stands but you can’t guarantee that you’re always gonna have a surface to stick/clamp it too, especially if you’re working outside (for example bc you’re spray dyeing and you don’t want to do it inside).
- THE PRICE. in total, i spent about $20. Some wig heads are cheaper, but for the sturdiness and the height (and the tool that you will definitely reuse if you do any prop work), I think it’s definitely worth it.
- it took me 20 minutes to make. seriously.
