I always do the red first. Find it easier to work around it than to do it afterward.

Otherwise...yeah, pretty much just spread it by hand. If your makeup is the right viscosity you can always try a makeup sponge too, but I find thats more trouble than its worth. I pretty much just play around until it looks right really.

Look forward to seeing it dude :cool:

Thanks. :)

You being The Joker this year?

I'm considering it...I'd rather come up with something new though. As much as I adore ol' Mr. J, after Dark Knight came out and everyone got obsessed it just isn't the same. Still, the costume remains in my closet - worst case scenario I sure don't mind whipping it out again :cool:

My costume is not awesome...but from fantasy...I am going to be Hermione from Harry Potter:p

I have finally decided on Little Sister from BioShock. Should be easy enough, I just need to make it recognizable so I dont just look like some little ghost girl with a weird needly gun. Thinking I'll sew up a big daddy plushy to make it work.

Decided on a variation of the joker. Same basic gear needed to make the costume, but a bit more freedom. The typical evil clown. I did an early mock-up. It was with limited colours. The eye bubbles are probably going to be green, as well as the hair, and the face will obviously be white. Oh, and I'll get a proper wardrobe.

I think I'll change the shape of the eyes, as well. Make them angrier and pointier.

I was thinking about doing the masquerade version of The Phantom of The Opera.

Im going to put on a micheal jackson costume. Paint side of my face black the other side white. and call my self the 80's yeah man im so cool

Very cool Ferret!

few years ago i wore a goblin mask with a boston red sox hat, this time im thinking Leatherface Because i bought the mask on ebay. i have to modify it with velcro first because its big enough to fit over a football helmet.

also, thinking of throwing a cloak on with a hood and around my eyes painted black with a crouched walk so i can disguise myself one hundred percent for trick or treating. last time someone asked me,"arent you a little to old for trick or treating?". this way i can avoid any problems and unite with my bags of sweet treasure.

Was gonna go as a little sister, but my friends have now got Derek and I dressing as Col. Mustard and Miss Scarlett from the board game Clue. We're both pretty excited to have a big group costume idea. I'm in charge of gathering the weapons from the game, and we are getting together in costume the day before to take some pictures and make character cards just to drive home the point.

Haha, awesome. Can't wait to see those.

Love that you're putting your own spin on it Ferret - looks awesome so far, can't wait to see the finished product!

I'm in need to some suggestions myself...wanted to go as Bullwinkle the Moose, but anything I can come up with just looks tacky (and I can't figure out the nose...).

If anyone can either help me out with how to me make a moose, I'm all ears. Or if anyone wants to toss some alternate ideas my way, I'm all ears.

Ok another change of plans to my Halloween costume, I was given some money to actually get stuff for a costume.

I am going to a showing of RHPS the 30th,but I need my costume before hand, I want to go as Columbia,but I don't think I'll be able to find everything I need,so I'll have to settle on Magenta this year....figured I'll have more luck finding everything. I only have $20 I'm going to check Wal-Mart I really hope I can find everything,and pull it off. I've never been to an actual showing of RHPS, play and film. :( I've seen the movie at home countless time thought :)


Once I get everything I'll have some pics up :)
