Because that is what I need. 2010 Cosplay Cost Estimations - Page 3 462451

Why don't you start with a
base shoe that has the heal / fit you want and then do a boot cover to
the length / colour you're after? I'm sure there's a tutorial around
here somewhere...

Hmmm, well I'm thinking of one of two options:

A: Buy a pair of stiletto heel boots, chop of the shoe part, strap the rest of it to my leg (Armour has to be strapped on anyway) and wear a pair of black platform heel shoes with it.

B: Make a pair of Black boot covers and wear those with some black platform heels

The only trouble with either of these options is that the boots is meant to flare out slightly at the top, I'm not sure how to make it do that.

cosplay cost heaps!! i need a part time job!

i know ivé already spent over $450 on cosplay and i only started this year sad

but if your going to start making cosplays like me you would of have to buy a sewing machine fabic sisscors different types of presser foots threads needles etcera. even just buying normal clothes for your cosplay from glassons or something does add up sad

- hobbies cost too much sad
