It's Over-Ambitious Cosplay Time! Post #4: How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

 Ha. Hahahahaha.

Fuck.

Back of head mold was so glued to the wig head that I broke both of them trying to get it off.

Front of head mold grew a bunch of MOTHERFUCKING BLACK MOLD on the inside over the past week.

Both are now in the trash and I am back to square one.

Again. 

Really not sure how to proceed from here. Make another go with the paper mache? Try a different material? 

My knee-jerk reaction is to want to return all the other supplies I bought last weekend and abandon this project entirely.

See guys, this is why I don't do 'real' cosplay.

NO! No giving up! You can still do this! What is life without setbacks? BORING. YOU LEARN FROM MISTAKES. YOU DO BETTER NEXT TIME. NEXT TIME IS NOW.

JUMP JUMP JUMP.

I am way too invested in your cosplay that I won't even get to *see* to let you give up now.

Think about it: What did you learn? You need maybe slightly better materials? You learned how to wrap your hair! You learned you need a longer amount of drying time. In comparison, the next attempt should be easy!

I'm totally serious on this: Don't give up! I think you can do it. You are so *encouraging explicative* capable! Nothing worth all the AMAZING PRAISE you're going to get (from fans and FROM DELPHINE HERSELF!) is ever easy.

Hhhhhhh so much praise can't cope *_*

I'm going to give it another shot? One more. But if I can't get it this time, that's going to be it, I think.
