Marceline the Vampire Queen FAQSince I get asked the same questions about this costume a lot, I figured I'd write up an FAQ for interested parties:
Q: Where did you get your wig?
A: My Finn made it for me. It was made out of two long wigs-- one 48 inch, one 60 inch. They were purchased on Ebay. I don't know the seller, sorry!
Q: How did you do the makeup?
A: It is Ben Nye Character Series cream makeup in Ghoul Grey (CB-8). It was applied using latex makeup sponges and sealed with Ben Nye Neutral Set Colorless Powder and hairspray. I do not recommend using hairspray unless you have someone helping you apply the makeup.
You can buy it here: http://www.frendsbeautysupplyonline.com/bennyecharacterbasecb-8ghoulgrey.aspx for only $3.40!
Q: How much makeup did you use?
A: Evicted! : Medium Coverage (face, neck, chest, shoulders, arms, hands)
Henchmen: Medium Coverage (face, neck, chest, shoulders, arms, hands)
It Came From the Nightosphere**: Minimum Coverage (face, neck, hands)
Heat Signature: Medium

Marceline's Bass Guitarby ~margo98

Artisan Crafts / Costumery / Props & Accessories

Finally finished with Marceline's axe bass guitar! I started it on Monday (6/6) and finished this morning. I made it out of insulation foam, sanded it, gorilla glued it, painted it, and detailed it all by myself. This is the first prop I've ever made for a cosplay and I'm very happy with how it turned out. Stay tuned later this weekend for pictures of my complete Marceline cosplay!

EDIT: A quick summary of how this was made-
I used the pink insulation foam from home depot, shaped it with a saw, glued it together with Gorilla Glue, let it dry. I painted it with Mod Podge (gesso), let it dry, paint it with acrylic. The strings are just silver elastic that you can buy at any craft store. The nobs are painted bottle caps. The tuner prongs on the top are just little wooden nobs that I bought at a craft store too.

You really did an excellent prop. *O* I love it. Would you tell me its dimensions? I always try to find the perfect dimensions for my props but yours are so perfect

~margo98 Feb 8, 2013 Student Digital Artist
