your costume is amazing.
great job on the wig.
i couldn't find anything near seaweed for mine, so i used fabric & some fake plants.
also, jackets are hard to find, i had a spray painted one.
i might try out some new stuff for old gregg this year...

You did such an astoundingly good job on this! Where on Earth did you find your costume pieces?? Especially the jacket, boots, and seaweed locks?

Thank you so much!
I actually had to make the jacket and the wig myself -- the jacket I sewed, and the hair I had to hand-sew myself. I spray-painted silk leaves from a fake plant, and then hand sewed them into strips, and sewed them onto a cap to make the hair. It was time-consuming, but actually pretty easy!
The boots I actually got from Hot Topic. They don't sell them anymore, unfortunately, but they may still be on eBay! Mine are actually somewhat inaccurate, though -- Greggory actually wears flat chelsea boots.
I hope that helps!

I made it myself, sadly. I couldn't find one either, so I ended up having to buy fabric and sew it. Sorry, I'm sure that doesn't help you much. :/

You, my fellow deviant, are awesome.
Did you make the jacket, or did you buy it? And the wig?

vancuria In reply to popsiclesticks [2008-04-18 09:02:49 +0000 UTC]
Thank you! You, to, are awesome.
I actually made pretty much everything on the costume, jacket and wig included. Silver jackets are amazingly hard to find! But it was easy to make, I just used a pattern and this silver spandexy material they had at a fabric store here. Pretty simple process.
As for the wig, you can see how I made it here: [link]

popsiclesticks In reply to vancuria [2008-04-18 10:37:04 +0000 UTC]
Neat! What pattern did you use for the jacket, if you don't mind me asking? You're definitely right when you say that silver jackets are hard to find-- especially one's like Old Gregg's.
Awesome! Thanks~

Oh man, that was almost a year ago and I don't have the pattern anymore. :/ And I sure don't remember which it was exactly. All I know is we got it from one of the pattern books at the fabric store, so it'll be McCalls or Simplicity, and it was in the Outwear or Sportswear section. I apologize that I can't tell you any more than that!

how'd you get that impossible seaweed hair?

vancuria In reply to svsitis [2008-04-16 06:21:38 +0000 UTC]
Sorry for the later reply!
I actually made the wig myself through a time consuming but fairly simple process. I bought a silk plant from a craft store and cut off the leaves, then spray painted them "suede tan", and added a gloss to make them look wet. After that I sewed them together in strips and then attached them to a makeshift wig-cap. (A baseball cap with the bill cut off.)
So, fairly easy, it just took a long time!
