Halloween costumes.

[Grapes]

Never again.

Gorilla suit or nothing next year.

[cubed]

seriously, the amount that this costume is eating up your time, it better be fucking good.

If it doesn't compete with me and bret's, you're getting beats.

Pics to follow CLASH @ THE LOTUS WHERE EVERYONE SHOULD BE GOING.

my costume is dirty from last night in the rain.

I will have to get a new one.

I have two others to choose from that I've worn in previous years.

[ebbomega]

Wear the other one.

trial run on the steampunk costume went all right last night. Will need to make a few additional changes. However, my 'tool pouch' which is a canteen pouch from a surplus store is perfect for holding a mickey or unopened beer.

The more you know.



I want to see what Dave's got though. I've spent like a hundred bucks all together (combat boots, pants, canteen pouch, outer flight vest, iron on patches for flight vest, formal vest underneath [supported by us army Y-strap supports], pocket watch w/ chain, goggles from gas mask, poor boy hat, and flight gloves)


edit:
apparently i don't have a chin in cell phone pics.

My plan to build up costume hype is working like a charm.

Should I mention that I got a phone call today from a girl with the single purpose of telling me my costume, which she saw the previous night, was "awesome"?

I spent a bit over $100 I think. :wacko:

Day 1 of construction is almost complete.

Problem is there are 2 more days of construction.

[cubed]

after 3 days of work, it's finally done.

I never want to see bondo or sandpaper again.

[Grapes]

Jim, I hate to tell you this, but my this year I dressed up as bondo and sandpaper.

See you at Lotus :)

lol I somehow have to find like a gallon of blood by tonight. Either that or the 20-minute "bad fairy" is happening again.

[Disco_Whore]

^Ketchup?

[prozac]

^oh hell no. :sick: the smell would have me heaving.

I scoured the mall this morning and most of the Halloween stock is gone. Not a bit of fake blood anywhere.

Sooo I bought several bottles of red and black paint, I hope that works. :worried:

[Gusto]

ew. i hate the smell of ketchup too. corn syrup and red dye.

[prozac]

^good call. a bit too sticky though?

[Gusto]

water it down slightly and it won't be so sticky.

here are some recipes:

Food coloring, water, flour.

It makes it thick, and a little gory.

[Goat]

Dye your balls green and go as the hulk!

[prozac]

turns out corn syrup + food colouring = wicked blood.

What Was Dave?!?!?!

[cubed]

^you'll have to wait for the pictures.

[tiedye]

I went as Tim Curry in drag.

That's the spirit!

It's a very simple reward-based system. You find out when you hang out with me. If you don't hang out with me, you have to wait for pictures. If you can't see pictures, you're probably blind.

[ash1ee]

sadly none of grapes.

however...
