My Halloween Costume - Rorschach (NVGR)
MiOdd | 7:57 AM on 10.31.2008 16 comments




I enjoy making my own costumes for Halloween, as crude as they may be, they're always more creative and often cheaper. This Rorschach costume I made was quite simple and cost less than $20 bucks! The colors are off, I was too cheap to buy a real trench coat and the ink started to smear off the mask, haha. All things considered, I still think I did a fine job.

I made the costume from one trip to Kohls, bought a cheap scarf (the whitest I could find) white female stockings and a cheap fedora. I took the stockings and put a piece of cardboard inside to stretch it out and then drew the pattern on with a sharpie. The jacket is my regular coat, which didn't look too bad, so I went with it.



What does everybody think?

Cheap and stylish is good - nice work on the mask portion!

Looking good. The question is: can you actually see through the mask?
NotAZombie's Destructoid Blog
Great job on the mask! A real trench coat would have been cool but I think your jacket works.

I wasn't expecting much when clicking on the link but I have to say though I'm pretty damn impressed.

There will be 50 thousand Rorshach's next year for Halloween just like there will be 50 thousand Jokers this year. Now go commit to your costume and buy a damn trenchcoat.
Audiohol 4m33s's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, considering how many Jokers will be out tonight, you're way ahead of the curve there. Nice costume!

 about me

Hello World.

I am a gamer. As such, I play games. I'm actually a self confessed Nintendo fanboy, however, I don't drool over everything Ninty makes, for example, I absolutely loathe the Nintendo DS. Also, some may call me bitter.

<--That's Me! Don't I look happy?

Anywho, I don't have many current gen systems, only a Wii and a GP2X Wiz, both of which I absolutely love so I never made the leap into the HD battle with PS360.

Also, please note, I am not a writer, nor do I strive to be. Many of my posts may sound disjointed and nonsensical, that's because they are, deal with it.
