Halloween 2010

Wearing the same thing for Halloween as what I wore for Dragoncon this year; my sandtrooper

I'm trying to finish my Ironman suit for halloween.. If that fails, I'll mostlikely be an insolation-foam lego head, thats painted as something different. Perhaps Tony Stark Lego man!
 
I can only explain mine as a neo samurai. Samurai armor with a futuristic flare. Pics will be up closer to Halloween or sometime soon after. :ninja
 
I was hoping to do Scary Godmother this year, but since we just moved (and I JUST got my sewing room unpacked and functional today) I'll most likely do generic witch from the pieces I already have (or that I can throw together very very quickly!)

I've found the purple and green stockings, but I already have an orange and black hat with orange and black stockings, so we'll see. At least the top could be worn for both!
 
Great work Giz! Finally, someone with attention to detail making a Mau5head!!! I gotta ask you though, my god, how much does that thing weigh???

I had big plans, but was laid off a few weeks ago so I'll be going with a project I've already been working on - deadmau5

I've got 3 costumes going on this year :

For most of my events, my new costume, the Mad Hatter :

Then I'm dressing up for school one day as the Joker, because my English teacher loves Batman comics,etc. :

And then the 28th, also for school, I'm dressing up as a realy weathered light BSG marine...A costume which I haven't finished yet. :lol :

I'm throwing together a Dr. "Henrietta" Killinger. Gender bent Venture Bros. character. I just finished my Magic Murder Bag. :)

Hopefully working on the mask this weekend.
 
Sooooooooooo change of plans here.

Since some of my most crucial supplies for Hook ( for Travis ) are stuck in Vancouver customs..........again.............. I think he'll be pulling out the Mad Hatter again. He did it last year but it was a brutal rush job and I re-made the whole thing for the movie premiere which I'd love if he wore again since I was SO so proud of that one. I think he's thinking of wearing Jack again though... but we'll see if I can persuade him otherwise...I mean THIS year is the year for Hatter ( Since AiW came out this March )! Next year will be Jack time again ( after the 4th PotC comes out in May ) and hopefully we'll have a lot of that remade by then too...

Left - Last years little reference rush job
Right - Movie premiere, current version!

I was going to do a girly Rufio with his Hook but obviously that won't work out so well now... and my second plan was a WoW Succubus. I think I'm going to still squeeze that in, but since I procrastinated too much and realized it's REALLY impractical for a club, it's not going to be much of a replica. Well... It will be... just the wings are li'l baby ones. And since I realized I don't really have the face for a succubus either, I've simply decided to just change my answer to " what are you being for halloween " to " a baby dragon. ". Much easier.

I wish you luck! I've changed my mind at least 5 times, and had my mind changed for me at least once. I'm struggling to keep focused on one costume. It'll end up being a gender bender no matter what, though.

Thanks, I'll need it. Good luck to you too! I did the gender bender thing one year... I was Doug Butabi from Night at the Roxbury... my friend ( who is a girl ) who was Steve almost got knocked out by a guy who thought she was a guy for dancing so ridiculously. It was an interesting Halloween... :lol

Sounds like a legit party! Hopefully I do it well enough that it's still clear I'm a girl, but I'm doing a male character. I work at a costume shop and every Saturday, we dress in costume. This week I'm going as The Raggedy Doctor from the beginning of Series 5 of Doctor Who. It'll be a lot of fun to tear up the shirt!

I know its not an accurate Daft punk costume but come on... you cannot honestly say it isnt bada**!! :lol Happy halloween everyone!
 
Please excuse my n00b ignorance, I'm new... But is there anywhere specific for people to just post old costumes they've made? The last few years I've had some decent ones.
Sadly, this year my schoolwork is too time-consuming, and I'm gonna be boring and go as Dr. Watson (my friend will be Holmes).
 
A quick search yeilded nothing. So, you can always post a new topic... just title it "My past Halloween Costumes" or something like that.
