So, me and Cheese are in IRC thinking 'bout costumes. I'm gonna be a zombie. Cheese is going along the lines of glam rock zombie or F'stien's monster Glam Rock. Curious to know whach all wearing, and f you have an pics of what you're making?

I'm going to a workshop in a bit, so will have summit when I get back.

moop and I have been planning to go as Captain Hammer and Dr Horrible since we saw Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog. happy.gif I'm Captain Hammer, obviously, since I'm the brunette. We have all of the required lab coats, goggles, hammer t-shirts, and gloves ready.

No pictures yet, but we'll probably have some after the Halloween party we're going to on Friday.

My plan for the John Constantine costume is coming along nicely, just some hair-dye and lung cancer to sort out now...

Found this in my mate's Facebook profile, Froggie, thought you might appreciate it tongue.gif

I was originally going to be Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas, then my costume arrived and someone thought it would be a great idea to make a plus size costume in spandex. *shakes head* So then I get all the stuff to be a Chinese Opera singer, including a dress straight from Bejing, but again too small. *shakes fist* So in the end I am going to be a gothed up vampire, which just feels boring, but at least my costume fits.

Halloween I'm going to be working all day and following the night with taking pictures of trick or treaters at my store and then selling their parents those pictures in snapshot or poster size. I lead such and exciting life. lol

The glam rock zombie costume is going well. It does involve me wearing black leather knee-length high heeled boots, and several other things intended for wearing by ladies, which can't be a bad thing.

I'm going to be a kitteh-kat.

And yes, it has to be spelt like that.
The only thing I'm missing for the costume is re-dying my hair black, and sewing my tutu. biggrin.gif


Because, you know, all cats wear tu-tus.

Medusa. I just have to remember how to tie a toga. Yonks of Romans knew the trick of it so it can't be that hard.

Lolo, I've a Sally dress that you're welcome to borrow. I just haven't the foggiest how to get it to you by Hallowe'en. Or which box it's living in down in storage. I sewed it up two years back. Still, the thought is there.

We both do--(canadians call them tuques) we thought it would be awkward to set up a power dynamic by assigning characters, even though everyone knows I'm captain of A squad.
Tarantio
It is done.



I may try to find a plain black tie rather than my piratey one, but tbh I'd like to think John would wear it if he had one like it. Ok, maybe that's just wishful thinking, but...

Eek, Halloween's tomorrow. I still have no idea what I'm going to be.
Fish Head
After years of trying to attempt it, I'm finally going to pull off a werewolf costume. It's nothing too fancy, just putting holes in clothes and placing fake fur through the holes...

Then again... I have long claw like fingernails that I've been filing down to points for quite sometime, and my girlfriend just painted them black this morning... they're even creeping me out.

And I do have long shaggy hair...

Alright... so maybe it's a little fancy. :-P

But I've been wanting to do it.

My friends having a party... I might end up cosplaying as Ness (EarthBound) or King DeDeDe (Kirby)

Halloween is celebrated a day early in the North, so I already have photos. The David Bowie Zombie look worked well I think, and only cost me a couple of quid.
Yannick
I was a modern pirate. Normal clothes, a bandanna, and a lightsaber that I put away when I was bored of carrying it. Lame, yeah, but cannnndy.
