KANEKI/RIZE KAGUNE TUTORIAL PT. 1 <[^___^]> - by XEVERUS86
feel free to add me on instagram @XEVERUS if you have any questions or anything (^___^) and please give credit if you reblog or use my guide thank you so much!!!
Hi guys I go by the name Xeverus, I’m a cosplayer and I love tokyo ghoul and just anime in general! <(^___^)> recently I found myself in a bit of a little depression and went back into all my arts and crafts abilities and I realized I’m not too bad at it and it’s very therapeutic for me. I also like helping others with how to make props and share my experience, hard work, and insight to make it easier for fellow cosplayers who wanna tackle something like this (*__*)
Well enough about me. here’s my list of required items and cost of each item as well.disclaimer - I’m in no way responsible for how awesome your kagune is going to turn out if you follow my d.i.y. guide it will be AWESOME!!! which I in no way shape or form take responsibility. No, but really please don’t hurt yourself HAHA ^(X___X)^
This was the outcome of my hard work and designing that I want to share with you guys!!
List of Kagune ingredients (>o_o)>

3. 2X Packs of 18x12 craft foam 12pc each ( not sure on mm size but they are thin ^(*__*)> )
$8 PER PACK @ MICHEALS arts & crafts store
(each pack will provide you with enough kagune scales for two tentacles hehe)
4. 2X Monster Water Noodles ( 57" size length )
$4 each @ Sports Authority
(could have used a regular smaller size noodle would prolly save you foam and glue)

$1.67 @ Lowes Hardware ;3
6. 4x 3/4" straight couplings(same area as the previous coupling just make sure they fit into the 1" cross like a lego piece this will make the base where you’ll shove and glue the noodles into)
$0.92c each @ Lowes Hardware

$15 @ Lowes Hardware
(this will make your noodles keep their shape so you can BEND THEM TO YOUR WILL!!! aahh j/k but no really buy this (^___^) )
