Edward Scissorhands Costume Guide - Cosplay Tutorial

[@Reszig22]

I just wanna say you got his personality down pat. Like the cute innocent awkwardness. It’s awesome. And omg your costume is beautiful 😍

[@janX9]

↑↑↑yeah, what he said↑↑↑

[@doneachus6780]

I hope you won every contest. This is camera-ready. If you don't work in Hollywood, they are missing out on your vast trove of talent. Truly spectacular.

[@Spiral_fx]

"There are so much more thorough and complex ways to make patterns, some involve math and measurements, but I'm horrible at math so I avoid that" Literally me hahahaha You're my spirit animal.

[@AlysonTabbitha]

Omg that makes me so happy xD

[@linkfan160]

I can't even imagine how long this must have taken to make. There are many cosplays that I would never try to make myself, simply because of the amount of effort and detail that would be required. This is one of them. So I find it highly impressive that you took it on and created something that looks exactly like the real thing. This is without a doubt the best Edward cosplay I've ever seen (and believe me, I've seen them all). I'm just blown away. Well done!

[@bloodstrxwberrymilk1833]

I love that you went outside in a neighborhood with this look!! If I had seen this omm I would've ran up to you and had a billion questions/compliments!!!

[@GinnyDi]

I remember seeing your post when you had just finished the suit and hadn't done any belts or details yet, and were worried that it wasn't going to work out. I identify so strongly with that "halfway-through panic," and seeing you push through and end up with such an incredible costume was seriously inspirational. (Also, you are the queen of budget cosplay tips!!)

[@shellohween924]

You are a fantastic crafter and artist! I love how you show that you don’t need to be an expert at math when making patterns-something that has definitely kept me from learning to sew clothes/costumes. Thank you! Another amazing tutorial

[@Moviefan2k4]

I've never done cosplay myself, but your attention to detail with this is crazy in the best way. I can't imagine how many hours in total, that it must have taken you to make this outfit.

[@irosencrantz882]

This is freakin' GORGEOUS! They could start filming a sequel right then with the beauty of that costume!

[@camillebunny5594]

Girl, you are so freaking talented. WHY ARE NOT EVERYONE WATCHING THIS? IT'S AMAZING! Love your job.💖💖💖

[@SoCalSh0w]

This video is so underrated. Excellent cosplay of this, and completely homemade.

[@betelgeuseredstone9082]

You're amazing and really talented cosplayer. I bet the other fans of the movies came to you in costume wherever you go.

[@cbean905]

My heart melted when you made all those buckles and metal details~~ Girl you are miraculous~~! I am so subbing. I would 10 more times if I could

[@AlysonTabbitha]

My fingers were raw afterward from all the sanding ! lol but well worth it! Thank you so much!

[@starrynight5207]

Can you put some of the reference pictures that you used in the video so we can know what you're talking about when you're explaining a part of the costume? And this is sooooooo good it looks exactly like Edward! I appreciate how much effort you put into your work and you deserve way more subscribers.

[@AlysonTabbitha]

I went ahead and uploaded the reference I used into a drive: drive.google.com/open?id=0B-CF5m6M3AtNY2x0NC1MczBhTjQ Hope that helps!

[@starrynight5207]

Alyson Tabbitha This helped so much, thank you!

[@Rose_nouveau]

Wow thankyou to Rebecca Stone for asking such an important question, and thank you Alyson for being so kind as to offer up her reference material

[@Rose_nouveau]

Good grief my heart hurts with how beautiful your Edward is in the intro.

[@idunnn.h.3792]

What I just love about your channel, is not only the amazing work you do, but the fact that you seem to really love what you're doing! And I'm just so impressed with everything you make

[@JDClair]

Excellent job. My 4 year old daughter loves your Edward Scissorhands videos and is gonna flip when she sees this. Thanks for doing what you do.

[@AlysonTabbitha]

Oh my gosh that's so cute!! Thank you for telling me, that makes me so happy!

[@JDClair]

Alyson Tabbitha You had my little girl captivated. She couldn't believe all the little things you had to do to put this together. Now she wants me to make one. Thanks for inspiring a new generation of Cosplayers. As Cosplay Chris says... "Cosplayers do it best."

[@purpledawn2727]

you're a big inspiration for me. you have given me so many tips that I can use for my own costumes. I would never have thought of painting a wig and cheap fabric. thanks.

[@nitalucy5219]

OMG she is exactly like Edward 💖😍

[@MichaelBarcusGray]

Your attention to detail is insane. This is the best Edward costume!

[@grizzleg8729]

Me at the beginning: seems simple enough, I think I can make this in a month. Me 3/4 of the way through: okay so if I start now I can have it ready by 2020 Edit: Me again: wait there’s boots too!? 😳

[@thatminari]

Did you make it ?

[@bobhoskins7105]

hey! i really want to make this, or a simplified version, as my halloween costume. how long did it take you in total? it's currently september 16 so this is a very ambitious goal

[@PurpleMako]

Thanks to you, I have a new cosplan XD Your cosplays are sooo amazing! They look so screen-accurate, yet they are so low-cost that it seems impossible!! You are so inspiring!

[@kendabek6953]

You are a monster, you could easily work in Hollywood!!!!

[@carmencarrasco1686]

Many thanks Alyson. I admire your work, you are an inspiration for my projects. How lucky that you have wanted to share your work, we are very fortunate.

[@anexey_cosplay]

i just love how detailed your tutorials are and that you use really accesible materials, and it doesn't seen that complicated at all, one just need patience Xd

[@pjdexter168]

You're extremely creative, that is amazing! this video deserves way more attention.

[@derrickmacias5013]

wow the result came out fantastic!! you even got the face expression and everything on point, thank you for this you made it look doable since there are so many pieces to add, I will try my best!!

[@azaynapeterson5849]

[@nathynowens2673]

Its amazing how she can look so much like edward AND kim

[@disneyylandacidtrip]

i love all the dog and cat hair everywhere, like same, it's on literally everything i own

[@nian111]

COSPLAY GOALS, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

[@igotapochahontas]

You have to love that movie as much as me to put so much work into this. Great job! I'm going to attempt to make some of the machinery in his mansion as it's more of my specialty 🤞

[@larrynavarro70]

Thanks for posting. Now I know what I'm in for when I begin to make an Edward cosplay ! Love your dedication to the craft!

[@AlysonTabbitha]

GOOD LUCK LARRY!

[@dcw4906]

You're highly creative and very talented! Love it!

[@stevieboy7873]

Absolutely amazing job and the way you walked with that happy smile just like he did in the movie seeing the village fir the first time

[@briannas.6741]

I really appreciate these tutorial videos because it seems so daunting and difficult! But you make it look possible :') Thank you

[@brookesidwell7670]

[@thelibertine16]

I'm so amazed at all the effort and details you put into this costume, it turned out great! Can't wait to see your next cosplay :)

[@KyCandicee]

Just discovered your channel and DAMN YOU ARE SOOOOO TALENTED

[@AWMsCorner]

At 4:04 it looked like the cat was going to steal the costume so he could wear it 😂 excellent work on this!

[@lucifermeowstar4604]

This is beyond words. Flawlessly done!

[@sacutti12]

Ok, that's weird, but i literally almost cry in the end!

[@chaoscookie9623]

How does washing such a complex and detailed Cosplay work? and holy quacamole this is the best Edward Cos i have ever seen!! Thanks for making these tutorials

[@teeny30210]

This is absolutely amazing, I don't know if I ever will be patient enough to realize such cosplay but this is very helpful and detailed ! I think, for now, I will stick to bodypaint :)

[@ArielVanDeKamp]

You are an inspiration and cosplayer I admire the most.

[@eljeffex]

I've enjoyed your other videos/costumes, but this one also hit the nostalgia factor for me. Truly excellent work and homage to a lovely character.

[@RosaLopez-xf6od]

Your Edward Scissorhands cosplay is my favorite 💙

[@alemtorsaula]

YOUR PUG IS SO CUTE

[@AlysonTabbitha]

I KNOW RIGHT? LOL

[@ghostwhisperie]

I've waited years for an Edward tutorial. ilysm ❤❤❤

[@namelesseda6958]

This is incredible! You are the most talented cosplayer I have ever seen!

[@CosplayingwithChad]

You shouldn’t beat your self up about it looking like patchwork trash bags, after all the original costume was made from pieces of Tim Burton’s couch and black sticky tape.

[@CosplayingwithChad]

@Camille Wilson yes, it was designed by Colleen Atwood, Johnny Depp had to lose 29 pounds to wear it and it took an hour and 45 minutes to be applied.

[@95marimar]

You are pure, true inspiration!!! Thank you so much for any tip/tutorial you've ever shared with us! Wow!

[@chrisl7769]

Cats always like to help with projects! ;-)

[@larrynavarro70]

Love this ! Perfect neighborhood too!

[@MettaKirkoff]

I haven't seen the film, but it looks so similar to him! I love the details and the design. It's a really great cosplay!

[@insertusername130]

You need to watch it!

[@thomasdz0547]

Metta Are sirious I’ve watched the film!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MettaKirkoff]

@@insertusername130 Yeah, I know 😅

[@TheSikedSicronic]

[@artbyfinn7757]

I also love the movie and Edward :) I have seen the movie five times xD This certainly takes time! I love your costume tutorials! Much better than anyone else on the web!💕💗

[@ashleighmathews2718]

Those hand-casted belt buckles are absolutely gorgeous!! You’re so talented.

[@electraheart7745]

Awesome tutorial and costume! You resemble Winona Ryder too

[@thamiriss.844]

YOU ARE INCREDIBLE, GIRL!!!

[@AlysonTabbitha]

Thank youuu

[@guitar420guy]

Absolutely the best tutorial ever, great job

[@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591]

She made her next costume with her scissor hands!

[@katharinejudy7929]

YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG! Legit following your tutorial on the scissorhand diy right now!😆👏🏻❤

[@AlysonTabbitha]

OMG GOOD LUCK!! Tag me (if you remember on sm) when your finished so I can see!

[@lee_gucci]

You got every detail on point 💯 this is impeccable 👏👏✨✨✨

[@PrettyScary]

Your talent is mind blowing!!

[@cronajj]

How do you make yourself look so handsome? You are such a pretty woman, and it's amazing how manly you can make yourself look. I'm cast as a man in a play, but I'm struggling to make myself look remotely masculine, lol.

[@AlexaBob]

Crona J. A lot of the transformation is knowing how to shape your face with highlight and shadow. Start light and then darken up as you go along !

[@TaraFYW]

So much detail! I love it :) your cosplay turned out AMAZING!

[@dragonessflight]

This is so fucking insane. I am so impressed. This costume is amazing.

[@Metalpazallteway]

One word: Talented!!

[@ReconstructedMari]

AMAZING! ❤️ I’m trying to make this for my niece and this video helped so much. Now on my way to watch your video on how to make the scissor hands 😍

[@sidiusgamer8106]

I really really really love aaaaaaaall your works and makeups Alyson. You're the best cosplayer EVER for me :D

[@Rocioray]

oh you're so amazing and beautiful!! I love your work

[@cloudiayang8902]

OMG I love all your videos! So many organizing details and skills that we can learn, you are freaking awesome!

[@CosmicKristen]

All the details on this! I’m so in awe

[@Jewellab0113]

Thank you so much for making a video tutorial on every element of the costume! This makes it so much easier for me to get materials ready cause I'll already know what I need! 💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@cannawhite7485]

just imagine you're on your way to school, open the door, and Edward Scissorshands is walking through the streets, looking at your neighbourhood.😂

[@mikomiakarui2410]

This was very inspiring, thank you.

[@kingkastien8977]

This is absolutely amazing. THANK YOU SO MUCH this 100% helps me out with my cosplay. Love you!!

[@AlysonTabbitha]

YAYYY!!! Have funnnnn

[@joewynn2445]

That movie was filmed in my hometown! You really did it a lot of justice. Your extremely talented 👏 👌🏻 ❤️ And not to mention.... really cute 😍 too! 😊

[@alexedits9097]

i might make my own edward cosplay and this helped ALOT! thank you so much!

[@MelanieRaee]

you are so talented!! this was a joy to watch ♡ just subbed!!!

[@AlysonTabbitha]

Thank youuu

[@LilyoftheValeyrising]

Great costume!!! The ‘crotch guard’ thing at 6:06 is called a codpiece. King Henry the VIII wore them. Height of fashion in his day. Lol

[@IdkMyDude]

If you want really shiny metallic paints you should try out Inka gold paints! They are so bright and amazing!

[@thatminari]

Such a cool costume and you totally achieved the look of it

[@niina850]

wow, if i had a costume like that i would die of happiness!!! really cool, wish i had one...

[@charleec.272]

This is so badass!!!

[@aalihte380]

well done. I love your eye for detail.

[@maryking6408]

the way you make the charector come alive is so amazing and adroble

[@jasoncloer8412]

I'm just dumbfounded at your amazing talent, Alyson Tabbitha. Though, as I watched I couldn't help but notice how much you spoke and looked similar with Wynona Rider. I'm wanting to play as Edward here in the near future for Halloween and hopefully some comic-con events. Lol, you could make money with your craft! I feel like and Edward in my life also...

[@SiluSisupalan]

Awesome !!! I am sculpting him digitally and your video and reference turn out to be big help!!!! Thanks a lot Alyson

[@sahil907]

shes a great actress as well

[@angiedalesandro4524]

I love that your pets are always trying to help. Do you always sew on the the floor with you knee on the pedal? I don't know how you do that lol!

[@modifymoods7946]

You are an inspiration.

[@FactsForYouNow]

wooooow

[@chrisc6898]

You look so much like Winona Ryder!

[@nadiahallares5102]

I am a great fan of you now! You are such a beauty & unbelievably creative & exceptionally talented! ❤️❤️👍
