I am starting on the robes tomorrow. Still searching the banks of the river for a staff.

http://www.theRPF.com/index.php?s=&showtop...dpost&p=1343520 for post with costume pics.

What an eccentric costume...

Good start.

 

[The Manlet]

Not a bad start at all :thumbsup :thumbsup will you have a killer rabbit with you?

 

[temponaut]

Run away. Run away.

Good idea for a costume, and a good start with the headpiece. Do you have the voice and mannerisms down? That's what's really going to sell it.

Looking forward to progress pics. :thumbsup

I will have a rabbit, it will appear normal execpt for the blood about it's mouth.

I have been practicing the voice and mannerisms. My children think I am more off my rocker then normal. I am hoping to have some flash powder and pop caps to toss around.

Hopefully I can find a pair of real rams horns to use to make a non-plush version of the hat for display.

I'm also in search of the perfect wigs to cut up for my beard.

killer rabbit?

theres no such thing as a killer rabbit.

AAAAHHHHH.... :lol

GREAT costume idea...

If you're bringing the rabbit, don't forget the Holy Book of Armaments and the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

What manner of man are you that can summon up fire without flint or tinder?

No progress on this yet, I am splitting my time between this and my 6 foot Jack Skelling lawn ornament and smoke belching Hellmouth.

These are the best images I've found off the net. I am going to try and get some screen caps tonight.

Not sure how to do the weathering, tear the cloth then wash it a few times? I am going to use untreated muslin and dye it red and black. I am going to make the cape from my jedi robe pattern, black on the outside and lined with red.

It is just going to be myself and my two babies (baby Jay and baby Silent Bob) so The Book of Armaments and the HHGOA is right out this year. I'm hoping next year to get my wife to do Sir Bedivere.

I have some chicken bones drying for a necklace and am looking for my box of leather scraps for his neck pouches. We're on our way out to home depot to look for a curtain rod to use as a staff. Then it's on to Toys R Us for a stuffed rabbit. Lastly the costume store for a black and white wig to use as a beard.

I'm hoping to find an old school spark gun to stick on the end of the staff so I can emit fire.

Here is a commerical one, Im sure eBay would have some avalable as this site does not have them in stock. But good pictures.
