I'm putting together a Han Solo outfit this year.

The pants and shirt were easy and store bought. Going to make the vest today (yay sewing?) as well as the belt + holster.

Presently I pulled out my NES Zapper:

and I am painting it black to use as my prop.



Not sure if I should do the corellian blood stripes down the side of the pants though:

So, thoughts on what im doing? And what, if anything, is everyone else doing this year?

Link. Not joking either.

Since July I have piece by piece purchased a real Master Sword, Hylian Shield, Ocarina of Time (a 7 hole, with the bird symbols), the hat, the Gauntlet, a Triforce Pouch for the Ocarina, and the back sheath for the sword. Just need to create the Tunic and buy some boots like that, along with white tights.

Nice!

I approve of piece-by-piece costume design. Takes awhile but it can look so good.

It ought look good. Not counting shipping and tax.


Master Sword 130
Hylian Shield 90
Ocarina of Time 110
Pouch 20
Gauntlets 30
Hat 20
Back Sheath 15

The boots will probably be like 40, and tights like 10.

So about 470 before tax and shipping.


Totally worth it though. I am on medical leave right now, so I won't actually be working that day, I am still going to go in that costume and talk to people about games. I just won't do the actual selling portion.

The Sword, Shield and Ocarina are not just for the costume though, I really bought them to display in my room (I have the sword and shield mounted on the wall like the Ocarina of Time Symbol, with the sword going through the shield. And I have the Ocarina in a Glass case on a Display Pillow.

First coat of paint on my blaster is done, so that gets to sit for an hour.

Working on the rough cut of the vest now.


Tbh the belt/holster combo is the thing i'm least sure of atm:
external image

I have good material for the belt, but I don't know what im doing about the buckle-thing yet.

And there is the fact that it doesn't go through belt loops on pants, so it needs to either be secured in the back somehow or fit just right.

The hat I bought ended up being crap but it'll have to do. The gay ladies will love me anyway.

Your costume sounds awesome FD, you should post a pic when it's finally done. Good idea using a NES gun for the blaster. Probably wouldn't handle it too much though or the paint will start chipping off.

No idea.

Thought of dressing up as The Ultimate Warriro just to spook little kids. But then I rememeber no one trick or treats here no more.

Was gonna be a Frost Titan(or Giant) but its too cold out to be shirtless

Was gonna be Kenshiro, but didnt build body enough, and too much effort.

Was gonna be Guts but thats better suited for my brother.

I'm not sure I would recognize Amelia Earhart. I mean I vaguely recall how they made her look in the Night at the Museum movie, but I might just see "female pirate".


And my costume is slowly coming together. I'm getting ready to do the first coat of the other half of the blaster (the half that was face down last time). I think using the NES Zapper will add a nice touch of humor to it all, or at least I hope so. The inside layer for the vest is almost done as well which will be used to cut out the outside layer (in the more expensive fabric), and so that part should be looking really nice soon.

Still not sure what I'll be able to do for the holster/belt though. I'm not exactly sure how to acquire or make something that looks like his buckle. I don't want it to be all cheap and cardboard or something, but I'm not sure what I can fashion into something resembling what he has.

And I will run to the store when paint is drying again to pick up some red tape for the bloodstripes. No one I know would likely have noticed the difference, but it will make me feel better.

The old lady and I were planning on going as Finn and Fionna from Adventure time, but our seamstress friend bailed on us and didn't make our hats or backpacks, so now we're probably going to go out dressed as drunk 20-somethings. Or maybe we'll just be drunk 20-somethings. One or the other.

Kakashi is quite a bit taller than any of his 3 charges which means you can get away with that. No one is going to base your costume on the average height of a Japanese person and how it pertains to anime characters.

Oh and I'm not going to cut off the cord from my zapper or anything, so what should I do about it?

Tempted to run it through my belt loops since the "han belt/holster" will be beneath that.

Lol I figured. Hey, you know what might work for that belt buckle? You could try using Sculpey Clay, you can get it from Michael's for sure or probably most art stores. You basically mold it into what you want and then you bake it in any conventional oven to harden. I'm pretty sure you can paint it as well.

Hrmm, that might be a more expensive back up. I have some pretty glossy silver duct tape that I might try first.
