Halloween

For the last many years I’ve been wanting a really cool Halloween costume. However, whenever I finally think of one, it’s either too late, impossible to make, or no one will get it. I actually envy guys because I think pop culture provides a lot of recognizable characters that tend to be male. Two of the animators I work with once dressed as the cops from the Beastie Boys’ Sabotage video.

Again, this year I thought I was bone dry with ideas. But last Thursday I finally thought of a character, though maybe not so well-known, that would be pretty sweet to go as. I’m going to keep it secret for now though and post some work-in-progress photos instead until the actual day. The costume part itself I’m having a seamstress make for me because I lack sewing skills. The add-on to the costume I am creating with PVC pipes. Most of the work is actually being done by my dad ’cause he works in a metal shop, so he has access to a lot of tools while I don’t. But I’m coming up with the design.
