My zombie fan girl costume is complete. The backstory is I went to a horror convention and on my way there oh shit zombie outbreak. I get bit and now I am a zombified fangirl living my dream. Or something.
I had the best idea for a costume, I want to dress up as the guy from Dateline NBC and have my girl dress up as a 13yo. She shot it down and doesn't want to dress up at all so i'm pissed at her. I told her if she doesn't dress up for Halloween I'm going to another party without her, because I'm not going to a Halloween party with the party pooper. I should break up with her. I don't think I can be with someone who won't dress up for halloween.
You should have a Bald Guy dressed as a doctor or something with you.
ATM I am having trouble locating Viking supplies. Ima hit my bar tonight and ask one of the flys there (a guy who used to be a garbage man and current halloween store manager) where I can find this shit. I seldom dress for halloween, and the last time I did I was like 8 years old and was Optimus Fucking Prime. Yeah. My costumes, when available, are so awesome that they need to have Fucking in their names. I wish I could be Optimus Fucking Prime again.
That viking image you linked to earlier was so fucking good though. It would be a shame to see its inspiration lead no where. Optimus Prime would be a good consolation prize though.
Last time I dressed up, I went as a victim of a sex crime. Blood smeared all over the ass of unbuttoned pants, bruises on the face, claw marks on the chest with a ripped shirt, and a generally poor disposition.
:)
YOU WANT MAKE LIKE SEXCRIME HIGHFIVE!
I'm trying something I haven't done before this year. I cast my head in plaster.

There's the used cast. Covering your head in plaster is an interesting way to spend the evening...
So I made myself a plaster copy of my head from that cast. Now I'm sculpting on my plaster head.

Right now the sculpt is still rough, but you get the idea. Best of all, I bought a mullet wig to go with it. :D
When the sculpting's done, I'll cast the whole thing in plaster again. That will give me molds to fill with foam latex. Then I remove the clay from the plaster head and use it for the "positive" of the latex mold and I end up with a latex application that fits my face perfectly. I paint it all up and glue it on.
Since latex is very flexible, and since it will be STRONGLY glued to my face, the makeup will move with my face and seem more like skin than a mask. Everything that is white on the plaster head where I'm sculpting will be my own skin.
I should do this

Best way to make gaping wounds:
You can buy those pre-made latex applications. They look super-obvious if you just glue them to your face, so get some liquid latex to go with it. Use bathroom tissue since it's so thin to cover the edges of the applience and blend into your face. Use several layers of the tissue getting progressively thinner towards the edge of your skin. Apply one layer at a time. Paint the tissue with the liquid latex to adhear it to everything and give the tissue a rubbery/skin look and feel. Use a hair dryer to speed up the latex drying. Be sure to have regular foundation makeup on hand (Covergirl, Revlon, etc) to paint the latex and tissue when dry. Then color further with grease makeup to dirty/bruise it up. Apply fake blood when done.
If you can't get your hands on a pre-made wound application, you can build a base out of clay (not to heavy or it'll fall off) and then cover that with bathroom tissue/latex.
I give mad props to you, Cheebs. I tried casting stuff earlier this year and it was such an incredible pain. Good luck, sir.
Damn Cheebs, that is awesome! You're going to have a sick outfit. Can't say I've ever put that much effort into a costume.
CHEEBS WINS
FATALITY
it's fun looking at that and switching your pov back and forth.
Cheebs that's pretty fucking awesome.
The Playboy party was great. I don't think I've ever had my penis wanting to uppercut my chin so much in one night. The costumes went over well too. I'm invited to next years (not sure if playboy will be there though).
I just wanna rock a gorilla suit...like everyday of my life.
I'm not dressing up, but my daughter's going to a McDonald's kid's party as Snow White.
It is fucking disgusting out so I'm not doing anything tonight.
I think I'm going to buy candy and wear my devil costume and open the door to give out candy. No parties.
Hand out nekkid pixs.
I agree with the disgusting weather. Not really worth going out with the torrents of rain currently flooding NJ/NY. I was gonna go as a homie. :(
For a halloween party, I dressed up as "World Famous" rapper, C-Nizzle. My first album I Wanna Hump You With My Gat went double platinum. To keep it real, I wore my demo tape of the same name around my neck. I also wore a huge fro, three watches, and gigantic Phat Farm jeans. I. Was. Pimping.
Pix later.
I was planning on the zombie gig this year, but with my job doing a 6-day marathon, I just don't have the energy. oh well.
I thought about going in black face but I didn't want go get the shit kicked out of me.
I kind of did that one time. I went as a wolfman one year. Had fangs and claw gloves and all that. Sprayed my hair white like a gray wolf. Well my friend thought it would be funny to go as an old woman. I got tired of the gloves and teeth because I couldn't eat candy with them, so I took them off. So here I am, black face, white hair, button up shirt....yeah
to make things better, I think some old people were offended because, with the white hair, we looked like we were going as a 80 year old interracial couple. That, or driving ms daisy.
My night was 50/50.
The party was sweet, with some group called the Yung MillionHeirz coming in unbooked and just fucking rocking some old school hip hop, they covered Das Efx, Del, EPMD, Nice and Smooth, Tribe, and Pharcyde, with some original stuff as well. I smoked some danks for the first time in about 5 years and steadily clobbered Bombay's and Newcastles. The DJ's were a mixed bag, some pretty good, like a junglist from New York, and some that sucked (Mike Philly, retire PLZ!) Lots of girls, and lots of really, really, good costumes.
Now for the kicker, I did not get laid last night, partied like a rockstar and passed out with two chicks in my bed(/Rich) . However, I did get a date for tomorrow, so it all comes out in the wash.
Most interesting part of the night was when some idiot who dressed up like a rubber almost suffocated himself because his flap got stuck, funny stuff.

Thanks for the tips Cheebs, my makeup came out great! I am about to leave for the party now, drunk zombie pics to follow.
I'm genuinely impressed.
well done
Zombie boobers plz.
That makeup job looks ace, animegirl.
And MarkRyan's costume idea wins the Regional Semi-finals for best thing ever.
That latex gash is awesome.
The weather is foul and we're both sick, so rather than going to the party we planned to, my gf and I decided to stay home and watch horror movies tonight.
I'm pleased with this turn of events since I really hate parties anyway.
I don't think I'm going to dress up for halloween, but a guy I work with in produce has Peanut Butter Jelly with a Baseball bat on his iPod, and will be blasting it, in a giant banana suit. Did I mention he works in produce? I'm very excited at the possibilities of him getting beaten.
Yeah, He' coming to work like that, I think he's taking the $50 gift card with that one.
As far as being close? I'm in Escondido, California so I don't know if that specifies as "close" to you.
PM me if you want more details.
animegirl- WOW. Nice freaking job.
ps- did the contacts run you a lot of cash? I want some wacky ones and I'm, as stated many times, very cheap.
I finished the plaster cast over the clay sculpt. Now I just have to wait for the hot foam latex to arrive in the mail. For this weekend's festivities, I just kinda' improvised with toilet paper and cold latex.

TNL is amazingly creative. Good job guys.
You know, every year I see women going to parties as sluty cats, sluty pirates, and the like. Why cant there be something original? Like for example, a sluty mailbox. Or a slutty dinousaur.
hmmm. Yeah, I wear a scrip too- I've heard wacky cosplayer stories about sticking the weird lenses over your normal ones, but I don't know if I could tolerate that.
There was a large halloween party in one of the "rough" areas of town and I couldn't tell which ones were the girls dressed up and which ones were the hookers.
everyone looks fantastic!
saturday night my boyfriend played a show and then off to a party:

I looked completely ridiculous last night, I'll post a picture as soon as I get one.
Pretty damn cool :D
Dagnabbit, I checked Fluffypotato and my pics just plain weren't there. I uploaded again....
Was everybody getting red x's before?
Atlas, your costumes are impressive! Did you try to talk with a deep voice?
ok here's my costume. it was hot!

ok, one more then i'm done:

... That's really good quality photo.
Too good. I think I see male camel-toe.
I'm going to be stuck in the university of houston library doing research for a paper until the early evening, then i'm going to drive home annoyed, exhausted, and miserable and sit at home with a headache. I hate my life. Oh wait... what life? Fuck.
Came out pretty well, I think. I should have more pictures later, but for now...
http://guidesmedia.ign.com/mrs/totd_compare.jpg
Hah, that's pretty awesome. It'd suck in a situation where nobody would get the costume though.
God damn, Mark.
I think you win.
Opaque and I are dressed like the bad guys from Karate Kid at their Halloween party. Its ridiculous. Pictures tomorrow.
turned off all the lights in the house and will work on my senior thesis throughout the night.
i don't have candy to give out anyways...unless these little squirts want gum.
Next year my friend and I are going to go as a duck hunter and a dog with an NES Zapper.
Not cool. I was just at a blockbuster returning movies and a few kids came in trick-or-treating. They didn't have any candy to give out, so I bought a bunch of candy that they had sitting around the store, miniature snickers and stuff, and told them to give it out to kids.
I'm sad I missed the little kids, when I got home from work it was pretty dark out.
i did all of my halloweening on friday and saturday. both nights i went to costume parties dressed as a french maid. quite scary.
my only plan for tonight is to play through some RE game, not sure which one just yet.
Man, I am upset, they deleted my zombie pic from my Myspace saying it was offensive. I see much worse stuff than that on there.
thank you so much :) couple people have approached me about making cosplay stuff for them now... if i am not the one cosplaying, does it make it ok?
wtf! that is wrong on so many levels. i am much more offended by most of the nearly naked people on there than i am by the undead.
that because there is a zipper for his crotch so he doesn't have to remove the entire outfit to go to the bathroom.
Great costumes, everyone. I didn't wear one this year but I swear I will next time.
Instead the gf and I just watched horror movies all night.
Lol @ the typing of the Dead. The photo is perfect. :)
Dagnabbit, the shipment of foam latex didn't arrive on time, so I couldn't cast my mask. I ended up doing a repeat of Sat night. Same design, new makeup app.

My parrent's house was all decorated. We scare the hell out of trick-or-treaters. :) They had me in this cage:

Cheebs rules.
Ok so here's a real pic of me in my costume. My sister wore the same costume so I superimposed her for extra credit.
