Halloween Costume ideas?
 
Anyone going as something different and unique for Halloween?

I'm going to a few parties and my creative thinking has run dry. Pretty sure I'm going to print a giant 6 foot board of Vigo the Carpathean and cut the face out and wear it while my buddy goes as Janosz.

A bit afraid nobody's gonna get it though :(

Sadly, I don't think I can afford anything for Halloween this year. I try not to think about it because I try not to miss a single Halloween.

That said, I just wanted something simple this year, like a werewolf. But if I was tall enough, I'd want to try Slenderman, myself. Nothing too interesting.

Aw, you don't need a fancy expensive costume, Netkeeper.. you just need a lil creativity. :)

I'm seriously thinking of going to work as contemporary Medusa this year. A few toy snakes from the local dollar store, a white peasant top, and a lil makeup around the eyes... can't wait.

Well I was originally thinking of a chesire cat/Luka Megurine type costume, but it would've been too pricey. Instead I am going to be like Eun Ju from White: Melody of a Curse.

I have a few costumes I've made this year so I just gotta figure out which I want to do. I'll probably wear my Hawlucha pokemon costume because its warm and adorable. :D

Big thing is trying to figure out an inexpensive group costume for me, my wife, and Trey. Debated Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby....or...Casey, April, and some Turtle....*shrugs*

Oh yeah, for sure. I'm just one of those people that goes all out with the Halloween costumes. I usually have them planned at least a month or two in advance.

I've been so busy finding clothes to wear for my UK trip, that I've completely forgotten about Halloween costumes. I might have to revisit my Elven Adventurer costume, but maybe with less armor and weapons :lol:

I was Rene Montoya/The Question this year. I recycled one of my Con Cosplay costumes. Which admittedly was mostly from my own already existing wardrobe, and a mask that I cobbled together.

So if we wanna share our halloween looks do we still do it in the pictures thread, or...?

It took me years and a buttload of money to get all the clothes I needed for my Marty McFly costume! Now if I could just lose some weight I'd actually look the part.

Really? All you really need is the jean jacket and "life preserver" vest, right? I guess it depends on which movie's look you're going for.

Well, I started with those two, but then I decided to purchase the rainbow hat from 2015 on eBay. I know that's Marty Jr.'s getup, but I wanted to get it. Also, Marty wears a white button down shirt, and I found a really good one a few months back.

I just pieced random accessories from different handmade costumes and went as a zombie jester for a costume contest at my college. Didn't win but an art instructor wanted me to come into his art class and let the students draw me while I stood and switched poses for them. So I had fun being a temporary model for a drawing class. :kgrin:

Most of the images are on my phone and they really suck. Which is why I might recreate the image again since I still have the costume and shoot it from an actual camera supported on a tripod versus taking another crappy half a**ed picture from my phone again. Cameras are IMO way better at taking photos than phones. :p
