In the spirit of the devil's favorite holiday, I've decided to do as everyone else and post my Halloween costume here on good ol' D-toid. My girlfriend and I went to a party as Link and Zelda, so here are the pictures. Everything for our costumes was homemade, so we can be satisfied knowing that the blood, sweat, and tears of hardworking Indonesian children was not put to work making these look good.

Pre-empting those who will call me a n00bzor for having an inaccurate Link costume: my idea was to go back and do an old school Zelda 1 or Link to the Past-esque costume. Hence the lack of too much detail on the shield. And the sword was originally going to be the wooden sword. You know, the "it's dangerous to go alone, take this" sword. Then it got a little fancier. And the same goes for my girlfriend's costume. It may not be 100% game accurate, but she did all those fancy designs freehand, so cut her a little slack.

Without further self-gratification, here they are!

Yeah, the pictures are all pretty much the same. I got a little too drunk at the party to worry about taking any more pictures. Not pictured: Waldo, a minotaur, Rita Skeeter from Harry Potter, Medusa, and the bus driver from Billy Madison.
