Show off your Gene Simmons costume

Well..... Being a massive KISS nutter, I think this is the best place to lose my RPF post Virginity! And yes.... I'm aware I'm raising a thread from the grave....

This is my Destroyer/Rock & Roll Over Gene gear, all of it is homemade, even the dragon shells are fiberglassed from some borrowed moulds, by me.

Well, you wanted the best and you got the best baby! Nice costumes!

An Eric Carr costume is tempting as I loved Eric's Fox makeup.
 
This was my costume for Halloween in 2010. I was 100% home made. The armour was made out of foam and cheap football shoulder pads, the bulge and wings were made by my darling mother. The spikes are made of foam. There are 300 studs that were applied by hand on shin guards (martial arts). The shoes were boy shoes with foam attatched. I didn't have time to make more authentic looking boots. This year I am remaking the armor and boots. Will post pics soon. :-D What do you think?

This is my 'Rock The Nation' outfit. It's homemade except for the boots and tights. Since the boots were too short (I'm 6' 2''), I added tops to them along with the silver scalloped pieces.

I play bass in a band, and this was my outfit for a Halloween gig. It was great, but my feet were killing me after a few hours.

Inviting Kiss people to show off, that's asking for trouble! I often wonder how they ever came up with these costumes. It is an incredible and expensive feat to build one of these costumes but you don't fully appreciate the difficulty level until you wear one for a while, although I would not trade the experience for just about anything, because it's great to be Gene.
