Frequently asked Questions!

Hello all!

For a while now it's been really difficult for me to be super active on DA in regards to answering all questions I get via notes and comments.

-If you're curious if I do commissions, I'm sorry to say that I don't take commissions anymore. I work a full time job now, so I just don't have the extra free time that I used to (it's hard enough to get my own personal projects done lol).

-If you have a wig-related question, please just shoot me an email at ArdaCustomers@gmail.com
At Arda-wigs, it's actually part of my job to give advice and wig suggestions to customers, so if you ask me there, I'll be happy to answer you (and pretty quickly!) in comparison to here. It's something I get paid to do, so I'm less inclined to answer the same kind of questions off the clock here, haha. XD

-If you have a non-wig question related to how I did something on a particular costume, lately I've been trying to add all that information into the description of at least one of the photos of that costume. Just browse through some of the different photos until you find it (it's usually in the first or second photo submission of that costume), or you might find a link to the costume construction information via another photo. If you still can't find what you're looking for, feel free to ask via a note.

Malinda Mathis
Artist | Hobbyist | Varied

United States

Armed with a can of hairspray as her weapon of choice, Malindachan is all about her wigs. She taught herself to style wigs so she could cosplay her favorite overly-spikey-haired YU-GI-OH! characters, and eventually this led to her habit of selecting characters based on who's hair looked the most ridiculous. As a gamer Malinda loves to play RPGs, her favorites being Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Zelda, and the Tales series. Other favorite things include One Piece, animated films, magical girls, sweets, nostalgic things, and owls.

Encouraged to pursue her artistic talents, she earned a Bachelor’s in Art with a concentration in 3D Computer Animation. She feels she can best exercise her range of abilities through cosplay. She learned to sew at a young age, and other than her Jigglypuff costume attempt at age 11, she started making her own costumes in 2004 and actively cosplaying in 2007.

Malinda does Social Networking Management and Customer Support for Arda-wigs.com

Journal Entry: Thu Jan 17, 2013, 10:07 PM

Life's been pretty good. I've been working with Arda for several months now, and I'm really happy. I've been keeping myself really busy with personal costume projects and things for friends, so I haven't really been online as much (besides for work-related things and my personal facebook). With almost every costume completed I jump right into another project. XD

I've got a better idea as to what cons I'll be attending over the next couple months, and I don't know if I'll be making any new journal updates for a while. So I'll make my list here and update cosplay plans as each con draws closer.

Also, more cons will be added as I figure out what I'm doing with work and whatnot.

Colossalcon: [link]
Whooo Vacation con! Not actually going to the con; enjoying the resort more than anything. XD
Cosplay plans: Nami, Designer Rapunzel, Fado from Wind Waker, and Mako from Korra.

Cosplacon: [link]
Missouri hometown con! And we'll be cosplay guests! :3
Cosplay plans are undecided at the moment.

AnimeExpo: [link]
Will be going for work.
Cosplay plans: Nooooo idea. XD

Dragon*Con: [link]
A half-work/half-play con. Super excited about going to this one! <3
Cosplay plans: Bubbles from the Powerpuff girls, and Eleanor from Bioshock 2

Keep checking back for updates!

~RogerDelmar May 5, 2013 Student General Artist

I hope you go to UniversityCon 2014(at University High School, Orlando, FL). It's my Anime Club's Convention. Plus, I will be doing a Vocaloid concert there(I have permission from CFM). By the way, Do you have a skype?

~RogerDelmar May 5, 2013 Student General Artist

By the way, I will try to get permission to show Yu-Gi-Oh!: Abridged Bonds Beyond Time Before the Vocaloid concert(Because I have a projector). OwO I really hope I get to meet you. Ow<~

~aanglove May 3, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Are you thinking of going to San Japan this summer? It would be so cool to meet you, you are such an inspiration!

*Malindachan May 13, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Ah, I'd love to, but we can't afford it! We were only able to go in the past because we were invited as cosplay guests (and they covered the trip costs) :3

~aanglove May 14, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Ohh I see! Well maybe I'll get to meet you somewhere else in the future!

~xXbest1aXx May 1, 2013 Student General Artist

~Qemba Apr 28, 2013 Student Digital Artist
