Vanellope von Schweetz Hair Candy Tutorial

I finally finished it!

While I was still making my Vanellope cosplay, many people who I chatted about it with asked me "what the heck are you going to do for the hair candy?" That made me think that a tutorial for the candy wouldn't go un-welcomed. Plus making tutorials is really fun (though extremely labour-intensive OTL), and it's been over a year since I made my last one, so off to Photoshop it was!

I had a lot of fun making this tutorial, and I'm hoping this will be able to help out all those aspiring Vanny cosplayers out there! I actually started making this quite a while before I finished my cosplay, but then I abandoned it for a bit, only finishing it off recently, since making tutorials is a lot of work, so you have to work on it in strides. I'm hoping to do a lot more tutorials this year, so we'll see what happens.

Guidelines for using my tutorials:
Kindly give credit where it is due; if you use this tutorial for your own projects, please credit me by either linking back to this deviation page, or to my dA account.
Favourites are always appreciated; if you use this, I do appreciate support!
Feedback is always helpful; I haven't been making tutorials for very long, so if there's anything here that you liked, or any instructions that could have been clearer, please do let me know so that I can continue to improve and help my fellow cosplayers!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

I do take tutorial requests! If there's anything you've seen me make that you would like me to make a tutorial for, please do drop me a comment! I can't guarantee that I'll get to everyone's requests, since making tutorials is a lot of work, but I will certainly make tutorials on whatever I can in order to help however I can! Thank you!
