So, update on this! I just started testing a headwrap pattern for covering the Lekku seam and securing the ear cones. Right now I'm doing a test one in leftover canvas from Star Forge Revan and plan on doing both brown leather and black leather ones once the pattern is secure. I'm doing a "nude" color first, until I can afford body paint. Planning on building a Twi'lek Sith Sorceress, so that will be fun!

Same here, I look forward to the finished product. If it looks as good as your Revan costume it will be great!

Very nice, I love when I come across a Twilek while I am in armor. There's just something about the lekku. There are some many directions you can go. looking forward to the final product.

Rev,
DUUUUUUDE! Those look sweet!! I vote for a blue/tan scheme (think Jabba's tail but blue…lots of airbrush time)
You're my cosplay heroine!

Starting with Natural Flesh tone because the good makeup is expensive XD eventually doing a purple Lekku and a blue Lekku. Probably using the one I paint purple for the Sith Sorceress. I'm thinking Black and wine with grey trim. Also doing sleeves and gloves so I can avoid as much paint as possible when I get that far XD I'd rather avoid needing an hour+ of makeup for a cstume, especially when I'l likely to sweat off much of it in a performance XD

You could always go with alcohol based paints, Oh the horror. I tried them on a Savage Opress I was doing. Great idea... Bad results. Black, wine, and grey are a great combo, looking forward to the progress.

Alcohol paints do hold better, but quality bodypaint, in general, is expensive, especially the more of it you have to use. Making a conscious effort to ONLY have to paint my neck, face, and the Lekku when I get that far XD Purple will likely be what I use for the Sorceress. I'm planning on using the same for Yuthura Ban, so it will have a moderate amount of permanent tattooing on it when I get to the painting portion

https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xg9P-lGIU/?igshid=sk13xnpslsx0Still not sure how to OST photos on the forum. The link above is to a photo of my first twi’lek cosplay. I was pretty happy with the result. I used Proaiir hybrid makeup which I applied via sponge and brushes and the lekku was a cheap set from amazon that I stuffed and repainted

I've been looking at twilekpam's stuff and trying to justify buying lekku for a while now. Yours look fantastic, so I guess I'm justified. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xg9P-lGIU/?igshid=sk13xnpslsx0Still not sure how to OST photos on the forum. The link above is to a photo of my first twi’lek cosplay. I was pretty happy with the result. I used Proaiir hybrid makeup which I applied via sponge and brushes and the lekku was a cheap set from amazon that I stuffed and repainted Your costume is fantastic; that headpiece is stunning! Did your bodypaint stain your costume at all? I'd live in fear of sitting down for fear that I'd leave a bright blue impression on any and all furniture.

Thanks No once the proaiir is set, you have to use an alcohol base or liquid soap to scrub it off x
