Hmmm im going as naruto for Halloween and as this is my very first time cosplaying was wondering if anyone had some tips for me

-yeeees I know im a late starter but if its any consolation I dressed as Ryu from Streetfighter-

what is it you need help with???

i dunno....maybe just some tips on where to get some accessories etc...or if anyone wanted to share their exp of cosplaying as naruto

Well, Forbidden Planet are selling Konoha head bands right now at £15 each.
You should get a hold of some crepe bandage for your leg and an orange worksuit like they wear on builders yards would be a good thing to start with.
-I've never cosplayed Naruto, but I did meet a really good Naruto cosplayer at a re:con in the summer- Buy yellow spray on dye for your hair, it will mean you have more control over how the hair is styled than if you were to buy a wig.
Oh! And shoes...http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to/video/how-to-make-naruto-shoes-for-cosplay-214813/
They don't cost that much to make!
Hope that helps!!

It does indeed tyvm although Konoha headbands @ £15 seems steep

If you turn up at the nov 1st meet-up, I'll just give you mine

thats very nice of you...I now have one though just waiting on my wig now...although spraying my head yellow like Chibi-suke said may be better...

I have another problem though...I have glasses and I cant wear contacts......
hmmm maybe I shoulda just went as Kabuto

How bad is your eye sight?
How come you can't wear contacts??
(I hate having to wear my glasses, ♥ teh contacts)
If your eyes are okay-ish, just don't wear them.
If you REALLY need to wear them, just say that Naruto got into a fight and his eyes got a little damaged!
Twist limitations to fit the character, kinda like how you do in fanfiction ^_^

Yeah I have the glasses problem too,
My eyesight is Reeeeeeeeaaally bad,
and though I do occasionally wear contacts,
For the last cosplay I wore anywhere (Hinata from Naruto)
I didn't have any and I just ended up going without my glasses and having a friend lead me about everywhere.
XD

Well....i am blind in one eye (happened when I was very young) and im a little para about putting things in my only good one.


teehee..
*gets image in head of a blind hinata being lead round glasgow*

1 post? do i smell bot?

I cosplayed as an emo deidara for alcon,and made my own kunais. There pretty easy and cheap to make if you dont wanna fork out loads on em.

Just a pencil,glue gun and some paper and a there you go a make shift kunia~
And for the naruto shoes,i just bought a pair of ugg boot type thingys and cut off the toes lul~
It worked really well 8D
Or make em outta sandals .3.
