Yeah for sure!  There are a couple important things you’ll want to keep in mind for choosing fabric.  The heat factor of the finished costume is one of them, if that’s important to you (I generally suffer through being way too hot in most of my costumes and once wore literal head to toe vinyl outside in the sun in Atlanta in August).  You’ll also want to consider at how the fabric moves and drapes, the texture and overall look, the fiber content, color (are you willing/able to dye it?), ease of use, care (is it washable/does it wrinkle easily?), and price.  You’ll decide which of those things is most important to you, since everyone has different preferences.  Personally, I find that drape/weight/texture and color (I do not dye fabric and never will; dye and I have a horrible relationship) are the most important to me, because I always want the finished costume to look a certain way.  I can suffer through heat and suck up the price and so be it if I have to iron that mofo every day, but if the fabric doesn’t behave right, I won’t be happy with the product.  

But that’s worse! Also, Loki couch??? *grabby hands, hopeful eyes*

There are so many super nice things about me that it’s hard to pick just five, but here we go for the sake of total honesty.

I am really talented when it comes to fitting a lot of stuff into one suitcase and still keeping that suitcase under the airline weight limit.

I am good at holding my pee for a long time when I have to.  Once I drove for seven hours and did not stop the car once.  And that was with drinking a whole 600ml bottle of Coke Zero.

I have never once fucked up an Ikea furniture assembly.  I’m a goddamn wizard with one of those Z-tool thingies.

When it gets too hot at work because I guess the stupid thermostat in my office is only there for show, I have mastered the art of putting my hair up in a bun using only a pencil/pen/whatever stick-shaped object I find in my desk drawer.

I've thought about this, but then came to the conclusion that I really want to be MCU Laufey, or at least a big buff dude Frost Giant, not some skinny girl Frost Giant.  So I need all of the above plus a full body muscle suit.  Blergh.  (At least I DO have the red contacts already so that's technically a start?)

thejabberwocki said: I know it’s not cheap stuff but silicon prosthetics would give you the icy look, at least for the head and arms… You could do the rest with body paint and a skinsuit maybe? Man, you’ve mentioned it - now you HAVE to do it!

Oh man I wish I could use silicone prosthetics, but that shit just refuses to stick to my skin.  It's given me con-rage on more than one occasion and the last time I ended up  swearing a lot and throwing out my silicone adhesive.  Foam latex is all I can handle.  But I've found a foam latex devil face appliance I can probably use with a bald cap and some Worbla or resin horn ridges.  Then I just need the body suit.
