Nice costume! How did you do the hooves? Did you puff out the back calves to appear like an ankle joint?

[Ose]

Nope. That's a "true" digitigrade setup I've got going on there, rather and a faked leg. I'm on a four-inch platform, walking on my toes. The faun's ankle is my ankle, no padding needed :)

And yes, I'm nuts. But if anybody needs proof I can actually walk in that rig, I've got video ;)

[Sparky]

It's faun-tastic! :)

[Myron L]

GREAT JOB ! I am impressed !

[Catlin]

I love it, Ose! I'm just recycling my old pirate costume from a few years back with new accessories. I was going to go as Ginny Weasley again, but they are predicting 75 degree weather on Halloween and that sweater and robe would kill me.

[6are54]

Thanx for firing things up OSE! It's hella cool! :D

I do believe that that this is the first time any of you have seen what i look like... sort of.

[Sparky]

Okay, I went diggin’ through my closet to find a costume for this thread. I had this jacket I found at Goodwill that I’d sewed Sculpey skull buttons onto. And my favorite black and white cowboy boots. And a black wig, cowboy hat, striped bustier, some toy guns, and some snake vertebrae. So I hotglued some bones onto the pistols, slapped on some Kryolan and hopped in front of our rec-room greenscreen, and here you go…Voodoo Cowgirl. Or Undead Middle-Aged Bandita. Or Gunsmoke Alice Cooper. Or something.

Well, with my guitar there, it’s Zombie Country Singer. She stepped off the tour bus one moonlit night, right into the path of a Chevy Impala. Now she haunts the roadside, singin’ off key and gnawing on roadkill...

Okay, I dont know if you all will like this but hey, WTH? I spent weeks on this costume for my daughter cause she wanted to be Geisha just like Mulan, and I think you all might like to see it. I don't care if it qualifies for the contest or not.
Here she is, my little Japanese Geisha from Kyoto.

[dogboy443]

That's a wonderful costume. No reason to apologize, it works!!!

Very impressive Ose! Do you also dress up similarly at conventions? Some people REALLY get into their costumes, especially at SDCC.

[Ose]

I would if I were able to go to more conventions. I've only been to MCCC and C-ACE, and have never been in costume for them. Sammy was in tow to display behind my table last year at the fall MCCC (he's too cumbersome to change in and out of casually), and his head was slung over my shoulder as I was wandering around the year previous. The faun was barely started when I went to C-ACE back in June, otherwise I would have brought it along.

Now that I have the faun finished, it's going to be coming along with me to any conventions I go to. I would LOVE to get the SDCC sometime.

Try working with him for eight hours! He's one-half Dr. Seuss... and one-half Dr. Moreau.

Further proof that you and Lars inhabit a different dimension than the rest of us. Did you at least go out and terrorize a few kids? Or did Lars refuse to put on the horse costume again?

[Lilitu]

When you hear sweet syncopation
And the music softly moans
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around in your bones

When it gets too hot for comfort
And you can't get an ice cream cone
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around in your bones

Just like those bamboo babies
Down in the South Sea tropic zone
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around in your bones

NACHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[Maija]

Everyone has awesome costumes by the way. I don't know how I can be expected to choose just one!

[Maija]

That is the scariest costume I've seen this Halloween.Kelly: How do you know that LJFC wasn't refer-diddly-ering to you, neighborino? :)

[Kelly Tindall]

Kelly: How do you know that LJFC wasn't refer-diddly-ering to you, neighborino? :)

Who knows? I guess it depends if you find cartoon Christians more unsettling than Who-people!

My friend said I look like 'Catholic Tom Selleck with jaundice', which I also like. Diddly-ike.

-K.

[Lilitu]

God bless him, he's very sweet! And the costume is awesome!

[parrish]

I was refering to the Flanders costume. It was like he stepped out of the TV.

Yikes!

Red Army brat? "The Red Star"? Who knows? I have no idea what you are, but you make Communism look cute.

-K.

[Maija]

Guess what I am! You're the girl from the Chinese propaganda poster that I can't immediately find via Google. But I know the one.

Also, you appear to be reading the Gideon's New Testament, rather than Mao's Little Red Book. Which is pretty funny. Mao spins. :p

[morna]

I think this (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showpost.php?p=3906882&postcount=53)one should be in here too! ;)

You need to host the picture on a site like ImageShack or Photobucket, then link it here by adding [ img ] url [ /img] tags around it.

Ladies and gents...damn fine job with your costumes....I spent Halloween chasing my four-year old Flash around the neighborhood as he invited himself into everyone's house and proceeded to say such grand things as " Dimme all da tandy in your hand " and " I don't like that" and " I am dressed as da Flash and its HAWWOWEEN !!!" Tough call for a winner, everyone...kinda like Rick's Nacho Libre, But 6are54 and Sparky are right there too...and yep, the Simpson's neighbor is indeed some scary stuff, hi-diddley-doo,neighbor !
