Would you recognize it, Fanime goers?

[Roguethe]

Oh, I wasn't going to use it on my eyes, I was going to use it for the shoulder markings, aswell as the ones on the cheeks if it doesn't conflict with the color of the pigment/paint too much. I know it would crease and all there ^^
And I'm not going to exactly be wearing white face paint. I don't really like paint as it tends to flake and start fading ect. especially in area's with movement. I have a white foundation I'll use with a powder. I've used it before and liked it.

Ah yes, sorry, I meant soap and water generally works to keep my face clean, but I do already have alot of what you already mentioned. Make up wipes and philosophy and lots of cleansers and lotions. So yeah. :)

Right, as I said, I've never been one to half ass. I'd rather just come in my normal attire then come half assed.
I plan on doing it as professional as possible, and moneys not an obstacle towards getting it that way.

And yeah, I was ofcourse going to buy the boots and add the wings. I was thinking white suede, or probabally faux suede, as it would match the material better then anything shiny.
And yes, I was going to make the obi into two pieces. The first would be the simple wrap with the thin plate inside it for the stiff shape, and then the stiched or pin upable bow. And yep! Wire frame, I just have to head to the fabric store this week and find one I think is sturdy enough, yet not too heavy as the tail will either be sewn in above or below, depending on how It looks close up.
And I actually wasn't going to paint or embroider the clouds, I know people who work at a shirt wheel, I was going to bring them my cloud design, and work with them on applying it to the sleeved. (If you don't know, A shirt wheel is a store where you bring in pictures, and they screen them onto fabric for you. I've done it plenty of times before and it's the absolute best quality for something like this :3 )
I was thinking of using wood for the beads, My dad has circular saws and basically everything imaginable for a workshop. And I don't think they'll droop with the obi plate inside the fabric. If they do, I can hollow them from the back, use a kind of putty, and repaint it.
And yes, I know how to tie a kimono, but I think this is going to be alot easier with all the modification I'm making xD
I didn't really think I'd wear it exactly like that as, like you said, the weight of the wings would droop the fabric. I have fashion tape for holding things in place. But over all I'll be wearing the kimono in a way that keeps everything in place with less adjusting.

So on my own with possible help from family/friends I'll be making:
Wings and tail
Obi and Obi bow
Patterns on kimono
Tsumugari Glaive
mods to wig
mods to mask
collar
stray bead
Devout rosary beads on obi
fingerless gloves
Issun
...anything else? XD Basically I'm just getting the kimono dress, and outer short kimono, plain white made. Aswell as plain white shoes and most likely, plain white wig to modify.

I've never worn sclera contacts, but I know what is in store. I know they're generally the size of a quarter, and consist of some shoving up the lid to place, unlike the general setting for normal contacts.
They're really the last thing on my list for a premier outfit. I know a site I can get them from for about $270, custom made to the diameters of my eyes. But again, they're not the highest priority on my list for now.

In my opinion, the inkjet tattoo paper is amazing. (See icon; I used it for my Adiane tattoos.) I find that the factory-made ones tend to flake and rub off easily, whereas these will peel off. And if corners raise up, you can use liquid latex to paint them back down (unlike factory-made, where you can attempt to color in the missing flakes but it won't be pretty.) However, it's not going to work over curved areas like your shoulders and on your face.
I recommend using an eyeliner pencil to lightly draw on the shapes (so you can lick your finger and rub it off if you mess up), then fill it in with Mehron's Paradise AQ.

Then powder it with a translucent powder, and spray on the barrier spray. This stuff will stick forever, and only come off if you rub it with your typical make-up remover.
Some people recommend using alcohol-activated make-up, but 1) I don't think you want alcohol that close to your eyes when you're removing it and 2) most of the people that try it said they still had problems with sweating it off.

As for the designs on the dress, etc. if you're getting the plain white made, what's your game plan for that? I suggest this simplified screenprinting tutorial:

Since the screenprinting ink or fabric paint will be more vivid than say, markers, and will be neater than if you paint openly by hand.

I agree with Jun and everyone that normally I dislike humanified/etc. characters, but this one is damn adorable and faithful to the whole Japanese theme the game has going on. Plus, it's Okami, which is a really undercosplayed series. If it were, say, lolita Wolf Link, I might have to smack a b*tch.

Really? I've always seen others using it, as well as have some laying around the house and from my experience, it doesn't attach to skin well and creases easily if there's movement or any fabric rubbing in that area. The effect is comparable to um... t-shirt transfers, I suppose. But since she has a few sheets laying around, it couldn't hurt to try.

The screen printing on the sleeves sound like a pretty cool convenience. Are you going to fill in the outline with the implied gradient you had drawn in? But as for everything, it does sound that you have the specific parts planned out-- just hope that it goes together. And since another person also suggested eyeliner, that probably will be the most convenient bet. You could probably use a larger brush, too.

I see, well alright, it really seems like I'm just going to have to take a test day with all these different make up and marking techniques. XD With all the experienced suggestions, I'm sure I can work something out.
Yep-Yep, screen printing in a way. But done professionally at a shop for that kind of thing. I'm going to stay and watch or help for reffrence.
lol! Well thanks, I'm glad I dodged a slapping xD
I was on Cosplay.Com, and really just thought that somebody needed to do a good Personifacation of Amaterasu. There are some really weird ones that don't make sense. I wouldn't do any other character like this, I just love Ammy and want to do this as a fan of the game. I only hope people can respect that.
I'm not trying to disfigure anyones love of Ammy as a wolf.
The idea really came up a while ago when talking to my brother and sister.
If you play Okami and go to Wheep' Ker(?) where Oki and all them live, if you circle the wolves, they turn into human versions of there wolf counterparts. we joked and tried circling Ammy for the fun of it, wondering what she might look like if it even worked.'Thats why my Rendition of her is going to have a mask.
I want to keep it in theme with the game as much as possible.
Without getting a furry suit xD;;

Ah, Yes, I will use the same faded kind of color for inside the clouds on the sleeves. To help make it stand out, aswell as help make it look like the ones from the game.
But it will be done in a cleaner manner, as those are just a simple sketch. ^^

Before even READING your paragraph, I though "OKAMIII~".

<3

It's going to be adorable. I'll need to find you and capture you.

XD Thankyou.
Well remember your nets, or pokeballs then.
(Prolly a MasterBall as it is Ammy xP)

I'll probably just bring a fishing hook with a yaoi book at the end.

It usually works.
