What are rules for if you have avalible materials around? Such as branches for Oberon's antlers, repurposing existing clothes, and the like? Plus what about those who already have a hot glue gun/thread/etc vs those that don't?

Available materials are free game. You can absolutely use items that you have/borrowed for your Cosplay. 

Any materials that you need to purchase count towards your $20 USD limit. Sharing is caring :community:!

God, my Wife was working on an amazing Sniper Crewman Outfit and I'm just barely finishing the 1/4th Scale Ratel.... And then I need to make a Lanka and Prova, UGH, I'LL NEVER FINISH IN TIME D:

:sad:

EDIT: Okay, whoa, thought this was just a Cosplay, not a Budget Cosplay. I misread this thread, Whoops XD

I feel like prolly not, but wanted to check, if we buy something, unrelated to the costume, and use the cardboard from its packaging in our costume, that product does not count to the 20$ right, since we would have had that cardboard anyway? 

 

Ex: Girlfriend wants me to go buy a new fan for the bedroom today, said buy whatever kind as long as its strong. But part of my idea for my costume came from the fact that I saw this contest shortly after she told me that and shortly after receiving another large package in the mail, which made me realize, "hey I'm about to have a lot of cardboard in the house" and gave me the idea I have. So since I'm not buying these thing to use in the costume, buy the fact that I'm buying them already inspired my costume, is that cool or?

Is there a limit on the tools we can use?

 

Being, a lot of recycled cardboard, water, and time can make a free block of material to carve and sand.  Then a cheap layer of paper and paints presto- high detail cosplay components.

Cardboard costumes sounds exactly in keeping with the whole costume on a budget theme!

In fact, pro tip: go to your local grocery store on their garbage collection day. Ask them if you can take some of their cardboard off their hands: since they have to pay to haul it away, you'll probably wind up saving them money by taking it from them for free.

Well, anyway, that's what my amateur theatre group does when they need construction material for props/set pieces/the occasional costume piece...
