hamsterstyle done at comic-com (or similar events)? Or done on the show? I guess I shouldn't be surprised, if I thought it was a good idea someone was bound to have already thought of it.
Clonesix - Do you mean this green jacket?
While that is a fun and challenging build, my goal is to actually be mistaken for him as often as possible. To Do that I'm going to capture his style and 'some' of his iconic articles. The way I see it, there is a balance between being recognized and what he would actually wear to comic-con. The more iconic stuff I wear the more eyes I will catch, but too much familiarity and people would immediately realize that Adam wouldn't wear that to Comic-con.... Unless Adam actually dressed up as Adam in order to make people think he wasn't him.. OK not going down that thought path it'd just make my head spin.
Anyways, if I wear an iconic jacket I'd probably wear his black (?) jacket from earlier seasons
Or this plaid jacket from a lot of promo shots and a few speaking events
What does everyone think about the Indian Jones hat? I know he actually got it from someone on this site. I could fork out the cash for one (gives me a good excuse because I've wanted one for a while). But would Adam actually wear it to Comic-con? It would definitely make the hair easier. My forehead is getting bigger every year, but it's not quite as big as his yet, but he also has a decade or two more of life (and children) than I do.
As for the
shirt; I think I'm going to go with straight black. Even though there are about a dozen iconic shirts of his, I've noticed that more than anything he just wears straight black. Whether I wear
black t-shirt
Black Polo
or
button up
will probably depend a lot on the direction I go with the whole outfit.
Anyone have an opinion one way or another?
In related news I found an interested
blog post of a look alike. Do you think this photo is of Adam?
PrimoOptimoso - I know he frequents the page
His regular name drops of the forum on the show are the primary thing that drove me to the site, and towards prop replicas as an extension of the making that I do. This is largely an homage to him, not just for Mythbuster, but everything that he puts into inspiring others to make/create/invent/dream.
I am an Engineer who dreams, and he (IMO) is a dreamer who engineers, and I think there needs to be more engineering in art, and more art in engineering. There are many great examples of the overlap, but I am talking about all art and all engineering. The line needs to be blurred even more than it already is.
I hope he sees this, but I'm not "counting on it" per se. The whole idea of doing a coordinated event where we have dozens of Adam's walking around was an afterthought that made me laugh, and I hope it makes him smile. Without his involvement unless there are a lot of affirmative responses to this post I'm not sure if it'd materialize.
Sorry for the ridiculously long post :/
