I want to start an Alrucard outfit from the anime Hellsing and I was wondering if any one had any tips on his hat or glasses or if thers any where i could get his guns cheap

For the hat, you'll need to use interfacing on the inside for support.
Read this for an explanation of interfacing: www.sewnews.com/library/sewnews/library/aafabr17.htm

I know you can get the glasses off of eBay for pretty cheap.

The gun's a little harder to find. You can make it yourself or get it as a commission. If you get it as a commission, expect to pay at least $70 or more for it (for example, laughingreaper.com/prop0hellsing0alucard0guns.aspx).
If you make it yourself, it should only cost about $15. If you'd like a tutorial, I'd be glad to make one, but I won't be able to until about three or four weeks from today (waaaay busy, sorry).
