    Wear your normal clothes with a name tag saying "E1it3 h4x0r" on it. I did that once when I was lazy. :P

    Can't beat Princess Leia in gold bikini. Works every time.

    That is, you scare everyone away and get the candy to yourself.

    Go as a TSA marine. If that's too difficult, this is what I do pretty much every year. I put on my German Army shirt, camo pants, skateboard helmet, knee guards, and gas mask. Looks pretty damn cool.

    You mean 127.0.0.1, or for the IPV6 people, ::1

    Hrm I still have to think of what I'm going to wear... we get bonus marks in school for dressing up, which is the only reason I'm even bothering.

    if you want to go as a zombie there is one magic toy that will make everything better:
    Liquid Latex.


    you basicaly layer that stuff on your skin, and then cut and peel as if it was reel skin: Great lacerations and decaying flesh <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->


    if you want to texture your face you use cotton balls and liquid latex covering them.


    Oh, and my fav costume ever was freshman year in HS.

    I had hair that was about 5" long (it is now about 2 feet), elmers glue makes some great horns.

    Yah, 2 big old horns, painted my hair black (blondie), red tips, and vampire fangs (fangs were jsut b/c I had em).

    I had teachers giving me back tests by placing them on my horns....


    been trying to recreate it ever sinse (with hair ranging from about 7" to my now 2')

    I havn't found anytihng strong enugh (wood glue dosn't cut it) as my hair is stupidly thick also.

    If you don't want to keep the hair, epoxy.

    If you do, a good way to go about it would be support wires, and spirit gum. A LOT of spirit gum. It does (eventually) wash out, but it dries very tough and will stay that way virtually forever, until you hit it with the solvent. Just make sure you don't glue your hands to your hair.

    Extra-alternately, try cutting your hair. Or braid it around guide wires, fill it out with cotton and liquid latex, and make yourself 'shells' to slip over the hair-columns.


    Personally, I'm going one easier.. as Mr. Hand, from Dark City. I just have to find a gray wool scarf, and some leather gloves.
  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    hehe

    I have tried a few things (including support wires).

    I don't want to permenatly damage my hair (as I like my hair, touch it and die <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

    the one I always wondered about was what ever you use to make a mohawk (like the 3' ones). I figgure that plus suport wires would make the perfect one.

    however as I work on haloween (no I can't dress up) I am doing jack and squat.


    wait.


    sunday



    I don't work.


    Oh, well, still not doing anything unless any one wants to invite me to a haloween party in NYC.

    Great movie, don't know how many people would get it though.

    I'm making a big U-magnet around myself and taping/gluing barbie dolls to the ends of it.

    Chick magnet.

    Layers upon layers upon layers of gel, then hairspray. It's almost like shellac. And the hair needs to be fairly thin, or it'll collapse under its own weight.

    Also, a mohawk is centralized on the head. It's supported by your nugget, not hanging off one side, where the lever effect will make it fall.

    I'm just going as a "Common House Ninja". It's australia so i don't get to do this very often [halloween]. Plus, ninjas are awesome.

    Black balaclava, a black bit of material that goes around the head as a bandana type thing.
    Black long shirt, black pants, black shoes, it's very simple. I'm also making some "common house nunchucks" out of a broom and a small bit of chain. Cut two equal length bits of wood, unclip a short bit of chain, and im thinking of different ways to embed the chain into the wood - maybe drill down a bit of the side, wedge it in, glue it, wrap in duct tape. spray paint the whole thing black [except the chain maybe], then colour the duct tape portion silver. wrap the handle part of the nunchucks in duct tape as well. voila.

    I was originall going to make throwing knives but i left it too late and it would have been ridiculously hard. As would have been a sword.

    to attach the chain go to a hardware store, they have little round discs with loops on them. screw those to the ends of the poles and then attach the chain.
