Haha, I'm not sharing her with anyone ;) She is finally finished. Behold: Thank you for all the possitive feedback! A lot of time and effort was spent creating her :)

Great costumes! Hope everyone had a good time. Here is what I ended up with...

Lol John Freeman... nah just some random rebel guy :)

I'm sure it'll look great mate! Sounds like a fine effort and I'm sure people will get it. My HL2 rebel costume is far from perfect but again, it's similar enough to be recognised.... hopefully! We need more pics people! I'll post some of mine later when I get back from work :)

"It'll be fine... probably just a toy."

I've never tried that before... sounds messy! I LOVE IT :laugh: Please show us some pics, even if it does go horribly wrong :E Usually I just buy a load of cheap halloween blood packs from a budget store and use red paint on darker clothes. Does the job! Those face / mud packs really do work...

Charity shops are a must for sure! Very useful for finding cheap film props and fancy dress items... This may be a long shot (not even sure if this is the right area lol) but have a look here. I'd check some of these out if you haven't done so already as you never know :) Ah, sleeps...

Could you not find a cheap waistcoat / sleeveless jacket and modify it? Add some more buttons and overlap the front slightly? As long as it looks roughly the same and the colour is right you should get away with it :)

But she's been debeaked!!! ;(

Haha, sometimes true! I doubt I'll be wearing Crustina all evening because... A: There will be much alcohol to consume B: There will be much food to consume C: I don't want to spend the entire party in complete darkness D: There will be much alcohol to consume Plus I think my...

Funny you should ask! I have recently created two costumes... one is a HL2 rebel / resistance fighter costume that I'm wearing for an expo this weekend and the other is a HL2 zombie costume for Halloween. I have been toying with the idea of making a HL2 resistance fighter zombie and will...

Why thank you :) It has been a really fun project to work on and something I have wanted to do for years. The first layer we painted consisted of white acrylic paint to ensure the newspaper text was completely obscured. We initially had problems with a bottle of orange acrylic paint that we...

Red brown and green... loads of dirt! And if you want to add a bit of texture / flaking skin, apply a dark green or brown (or both?!) mudpack to parts of your arms and face... then just let it dry :)

Loving the budget Gordon Freeman costume :D Maybe one day! The following pictures are from my costume! Well, the top part at least :) Some earlier pictures taken during construction can be found here. Just need to add a bit (or lots) of blood :E

Hello everyone! Allow me to introduce you to the most important part of my halloween costume... Crustina the headcrab! I know I'm not the first person to make a headcrab but I thought some of you might like to see our efforts! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but my...

Why ruin the surprise?! Hah, your avatar is dancing perfectly in sync with my music... creepy. I can't find anything in the FAQ about picture dimension / sizes... is there a limit? I want to post some pictures but I'm worried about breaking the rules!

Hello all! I've been visiting for years and thought I would finally register! Got something to post in a few days but wanted to say hi first :) So yeah, hi everyone, hope we're all having a good day!
