Dr. Horrible Goggles

[madrobot]

This was just a quickie thing I made for fun, and am on the hunt for the right kind of goggles, hoping anyone might know which ones I really need.

I'm a big Whedon fan, and like I said, these were made on a whim.

Thanks for looking.

Those actually look really cool. The proper ones seem really hard to find - they appear to be a style that has been discontinued (6 vents and semi-circular - i.e. not triangular like yours - finger tabs to flip up the eyepiece). Would love some myself if they can be tracked down.

Those look good! Any chance you'll be tackling the rest of his costume?

Actually, the vents are half circles. I found the proper goggles, and they aren't 6 vents. They made two holes and put 2 more vents on the goggles.

As far as making the rest of the costume, not for me. I'm way too porky to even think of pulling off Doctor Horrible.

I actually have a pair of the same kind of welding gloves he wears.

I've had these gloves for about 10 years or so. With a little cleaning, they could be Dr. Horrible Gloves.

I've been thinking about picking up goggles like those since I'm just about blind without my glasses.

Would I get those at a specialty place or just any hardware store? seems like a silly question, but I'm pretty much a noob in this area.
