Alright, here's a sketch of a cosplay of sasuke I'd like to do. The costume is older sasuke's second costume. The idea is a darker, more corrupted and orochimaru influenced sasuke. I wanted it to be close to visual kei style, brighter contrasts, stronger purples or reds.

the sketch probably isn't very good so here's a short description
-mainly older sasuke's second costume
-leather band on neck
-chain accessory on chest with paper seals hanging off
-bandages with red thread running through the waist and arms
-black hair with partly neon blue ends
-dark flame patterns on vest thingy
-cursed seal patterns running all through the neck face and shoulder
-orochimaru eye splits on left eye.
-visual kei-ish black ink-like makeup running from the mouth

I hope you guys could give me some feedback, ideas, criticism or advice! I know really little about visual kei and any help on that end would be great! thanksss

at the risk of Jess sicing my ass for necrocing this thread i will tell you though that the design itself is WAY too busy ie there's too much stuff

i mean sure its VK style and that has tons of stuff in it but you forgot ONE VERY IMPORTANT FACT

OROCHIMARU HAS NO FREAKING DRESS SENSE which was passed onto Sasuke *cringes* his clothes in the latest chapters are cool though XD

and if you have paper seals as a necklace itll make you look like some kind of giant sealed object ... not cool

though the arm details are cool though =D

-mainly older sasuke's second costume
-leather band on neck
~~-chain accessory on chest with paper seals hanging off~~
-bandages with red thread running through the waist and arms
-black hair with partly neon blue ends
~~-dark flame patterns on vest thingy~~ <-- biker much? lol XD
-cursed seal patterns running all through the neck face and shoulder
-orochimaru eye splits on left eye.
~~-visual kei-ish black ink-like makeup running from the mouth~~ <-- unnecessary you already have curse seal marks any more makeup and youll look like you poured the thing on you

the ones that i strike are the ones that i think are unnecessary lol

you know why for the paper seals though the chain accesory hmm ... *undecided*

that is my opinion sorry if its kind of harsh im just a bit too honest when it comes to vk and gothloli and i hate the pants but then again as you might of already guessed i profoundly dislike sasuke's 2nd clothes XD and i blame orochimaru =D

oh and to read up or rather watch vk i suggest looking at bands like

dir en grey (dies <3 kyo) their earlier stuff is CRAZY their newer stuff dont really have as much since they have left the vk stuff behind

the gazette - could say theyre trying to rip off the dir en grey look adn that ruki is trying too hard to be like kyo but meh ... <33 kai

there are also different types of vk
you could go for oshare kei (happy vk? well its not as dark)

oshare bands like alice nine and others im not totally big on oshare XD

<33
