The Purple Diane Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I work in what you might call an immature industry so everyone here dresses up for Halloween. Some of the costumes get quite elaborate! This year, I am determined to go as Xena, Warrior Princess! What's everybody else dressing up as?? Quote Link to comment
Benching Zombies Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I was bent on dressing as the Stay Puff Man, until I found out how intense a DIY Stay Puff Man is time wise. I think I'ma whip together a Quailman costume instead. Also, Halloween is amazing. Best holiday. Quote Battle For Hogwarts Challenge Link to comment
ebm1224 Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 i'm still trying to figure out what to be. i actually went to some thrift stores today hoping to find something but no such luck. i have a few ideas floating around in my head (lucy in the sky with diamonds, an oompa loompa, a leprecaun) but so far i haven't found the right items to make any of them work. hopefully, ya'll can give me some good ideas!

smurray Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I am either going to do "old school" robot costume with boxes covered in aluminum foil and vent tubes or a paleontologist since I have already built a prop for that one.

Fogo Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Haven't decided on anything yet for this year, so I might just resurrect my old Cap'n Crunch costume from a few years back.

Fogo Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 [off topic]I love your avatar![/off topic] Yeah - I would pay good money to see an animated Indiana Jones series that looked like my avatar. It's a cropped version of a larger print by Patrick Schoenmaker. He's got an awesome collection of his art up on his blog, including the full version of the image I lifted my avatar from. I just wish I had the cash to buy some prints of his work, especially some of the Army of Darkness stuff. Quote Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

The Purple Diane Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Good news - I scored the Xena costume! It's only going to need a little adjustment around the boobie area. Bad news - I bought another pair of shoes. Still need to get a sword... any recommendations of places to buy online? Or places to avoid? Quote Link to comment

caithnard Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I'm using a costume I made this summer and going to be Chell, from Portal. I only made the jumpsuit this summer, though.

wanderluck Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Is it terrible to say I'm planning on being a hipster zombie? I work at liquor store frequented by townies and will likely be working Halloween... think anybody'll get it?

joshua.m1001 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I am trying to bulk up to look like a spartan/gladiator too like Timmy. Though if I don't get ripped enough and because it can get really cold where I am my other possibility is Captain Hammer! By the way, +1 and a woot for the River Song option. I also though about going as the Eleventh Doctor as I already have a bow-tie and suspenders but unsure if I want to do the rest. Now I have too many choices, must find a way to decide.

Qt3.14 Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 I went to an internet meme party two years ago, dressed as a series of tubes. There wer tubes all over me, in series. And I had a hat on that said, not a dump truck. Last year I was Meg Griffin. I discovered I owned this costume by accident when I left the house wearing jeans, a pink t-shirt, pink hat and my glasses. The fact that I inadvertently dress like Meg Griffin explains a lot about my life. Quote "Most unhappiness in life is caused by giving up what you want most for what you want in the moment."
