If you are a cosplayer, you probably remember that moment when you first thought about cosplay and how you were going to do it in the future. You ask any of your friends or acquaintances of experienced cosplayers your first question in this field: "Who do you cosplay?"

It must be said that this excruciating question worries not only newcomers, though it's more natural for them as well. Sooner or later anyone who decides to make a new costume comes back to it.

What are the rules you need to follow to create your first cosplay?

Accept that you will be cosplaying not your favorite, but the right characters. Match your figure, height, face type, and more. Yes, you can't get a penny for it, but you will be judged as a professional. You went on stage or to the special site, nobody forced you, mind you. And once you're out there, people expect you to deliver the promised character made as similar as possible.

Wig. Dyed hair looks very undersized, because hairstyles are often very big. And you're not going to go from red to green every month. Wig must be of high quality and without shine, as from a carnival store.

Costume. Even without a costume, but in the right wig, you already look similar to the character. You could, for example, take a picture in a maid's dress and say it's a made-up version. But if you do decide to sew the costume, you need a pattern and fabric.

Details. If you think no one will notice that little pebble on your sleeve - they will. Make an unfortunate pebble.

Props. It's often not necessary. It's better to do nothing than come out with a cardboard stick. But if you woke up a crafter, write down the magic words "epoxy," "styrofoam" and "styrofoam" and run to the construction store.

Makeup. There are tutorials online, for almost any character. If not, then by type. Makeup is needed, on stage and in photos facial features are eaten, they need to stand out. It is also good to powder a little bit, so that in the light of the spotlights does not shine a greasy sweaty nose.

Shoes. If you think no one will notice your non-canonical shoes, you are deeply mistaken.

Wagering. You're not a pillar, you're the ruler of the universe (or a cute, cheerful girl, whatever). This should shine through in your every gesture.

Practice in front of a mirror and don't step out of character until you take off Overwatch female cosplay. But don't go overboard and get too divine.
