Hello! Here I am once again expressing my insane obsession for Erik...
I am cosplaying as Erik at a local anime convention but I am having some problems, as I do not wish to go all ALW and I want to go traditional (the book.) I found a full face mask, though its silver I shall paint it black, I got a cape, and the shoes and pants are easy (yay thrift stores!) My problem is the wig and jacket, one of which needs a tail. Here's the wig I got:

The problem is that it is a lot more silver than the picture looks... but at the same time Erik was really old so wouldn't he be grey by then? It was the closest I could find to the description of him having only a few wisps of hair, and I could always cut some off. But does this really fit him? I keep checking the book over andover again and thus I am making myself go mad. So i call out to you, oh fellow phans to help me!
Also, does anyone know where to get a black dress suit jacket with a tail?
