So, everyone, I'm cosplaying as Karkat for Halloween this year. It's my first time cosplaying... Ever. So I'm completely clueless about how to make the horns, the shirt, ETC. I also assume that for a good cosplay, I'm going to have to bind. Which is gonna be expensive, as I've heard. So, any help on, well, anything would be appreciated.

For the horns I suggest you make them out of model magic ouo
As for the shirt, buy a plain long sleeve black shirt and buy some fabric paint to make the symbol.
For wig, maybe one like Izaya's would do. Just with some styling done ouo
Umm as for makeup I suggest Ben Nye Cadaver Grey
Ummm ummm
I don't remember what else I was going to say ; u ;''

Alright guys, I finished the horns, I just need to glue them to a headband. Yeah, they look messy, but these are the first horns I've ever made. I bought my Karkat pants yesterday, they look wonderful. ouo
